Nokia’s Android phone includes Windows Phone-like UI



Images of Nokia’s Android phone, codenamed Normandy, were originally published in November, but a number of recent leaks have provided a closer look at the hardware and its software. Vizileaks has published what appears to be a near-final hardware unit, and some of the early Android apps that run on the device have also been detailed. Thanks to Evleaks, we're getting a closer look at the UI on Nokia's Android handset.

The UI appears to be very similar to Windows Phone. with a number of tiles that provide access to apps like Skype, Twitter, Vine, Facebook, and BBM. Some of the tiles are identical to the same color scheme and iconography used in the equivalent Nokia Windows Phone apps. There’s also what appears to be a notification / app center that displays missed calls, notifications, and recent apps / activity. A status bar indicates that the phone has dual-SIM capabilities. Although the phone is targeted at the low-end, the striking similarities with Windows Phone in hardware and software show that Nokia continues to blur the lines across its range of devices.

Unboxing OnePlus One: Size Comparisons!

[stev]

seriously doubt we seeing a whole new version....KitKat not even a year old

probably changes to services and supporting apps only? UI changes?

[kerwinishere]

Noticeable changes in 4.4.4:
*Improved dialer app
*Better battery life and overall performance
*New notification viewer(somewhat like iOS but still better)

@kronik how's the battery life and stability. Recently tried a kernel (lean kernel) and got random reboots and FCs

Ktoonz is best suited for task's ROMs (it originally came with the ROM till he just left the cyanogen kernel). I just undervolt a little, drop the min MHz to 189 (it can go lower) and set the governer to ktoonservative and I get a noticeable difference in battery life.

But then again I have a 7000mah battery so battery life doesn't bother me lol

[kerwinishere]

Using a tablet? my governor set to performance and battery life still better than any other ROM I used on this phone. ROM: Task650

[devon4786]
