Nokia’s Android-Powered Feature Phone – Everything You Need to Know!
Nokia has been in the phone market for a long time now. Even before the Samsung and Apple, Nokia was the one that had its name in connecting people. Fortunately, nothing has changed much since then. Nokia is still selling its smartphones as well as the feature phones. However, what’s new about Nokia is that the company is going to introduce an Android tailored feature phone, in the markets soon.
This is not what we are saying but a reliable source has confirmed the news that an Android-powered Nokia feature phone is going to be introduced. In addition to that, the source also suggested what that phone could look like. Some pictures of the upcoming phone have also been leaked that confirmed that Nokia’s feature phone is now going to support Android apps.
The leaked images suggested that this phone is going to be remarkably resembling Nokia 220. Since it is going to be a cheaper alternative to all the smartphones, this feature phone is going to pack:

In addition to that, the leaked picture of the phone also suggested the look and interface of the software. It was also seen in the pictures that the status bar features the indicators for the connection type, battery, time and signal strength.
The picture also indicated the phone would support the Google Assistant as well. Google’s microphone icon is located in the middle of the screen that could be used for standard voice searches. There is also a Change Speaking Language Indicator that might allow you to change the language of the Google Assistant.
Moreover, the bottom of the phone shows five icons, with an app drawer icon in the middle. These icons consist of:
- Camera
