It was rumored that Nokia had more handsets in the pipeline other than the Nokia X, and that rumor proved to be true. This morning in Barcelona, Nokia announced 3 new Android handsets. Unfortunately all of them are lower-end and are using Nokia's own (forked) version of Android without Google services.
The Nokia X (pictured above) and X+ are essentially the same, but the X+ includes more storage and an SD card.The Nokia XL (pictured below) gives you a bigger display (5-inches vs 4-inches) along with an added front-facing camera. Full specs for all devices and a video after the break.

Oh wow, with the fantastic build quality of Nokia and the incredible innovation of Android, this is one to watch. Especially with the Carl Zeiss lens that they will inevitably put into the higher end handsets, this is a set up that will be hard to beat if Nokia play it right!
