Nokia, recently purchased by Microsoft, has announced the Nokia X2 smartphone, a successor to their Android powered Nokia X. Like the older version, the Nokia X2 is aimed at the lower end of the market as a budget smartphone, so the differences in this newer version are not major. In terms of hardware, the screen has grown slightly to 4.3-inches, RAM has been pushed up to 1GB, and the processor is just a little bit faster at 1.2GHz. The Nokia X2 comes with 4GB of memory on board with up to 32GB additional space available via microSD. Nothing earth-shattering there, but this should help improve the overall experience a little bit.

Nokia also added a Home button to the device to go with the back button to help improve navigation between apps on the device. Like most other Android devices, Nokia added an “apps list” function called “Fastlane” to help with navigation as well. The device still runs a modified interface that resembles the Windows Phone interface on the surface. While Nokia still hooks into several Microsoft services out of the box, like providing 15GB of OneDrive storage, users can load Android apps on the device.

The Nokia X2 is priced at €99 ($168 USD) and is available in immediately in select countries. Initially it is available in green, orange and black. Yellow, white and a matte dark grey will be available at a later date.
