Nokia X’s Fastlane shows promise

DHAKA: By design, Nokia’s new Android smartphones will underwhelm users of high-end phones.

The Nokia X line was created with emerging markets in mind, so the company emphasised keeping prices low, meaning the user interface is relatively simple.

The home screen resembles the one on Nokia’s Windows-based Lumia phones, even though it’s Android underneath.

But Nokia added a Fastlane feature, a screen with quick access to your most-used apps.

You get to it by swiping from the left or right edge of the home screen or tapping the back button at the bottom, says stuff.co.nz.

The basic Nokia X phone costs €89 and has a 4-inch screen, measured diagonally, and a 3 megapixel camera. A X+ version with an SD storage card costs €99, while an XL with a 5-inch screen and 5 megapixel camera goes for €109.
