Nokia has confirmed it’s return to smartphone once the agreement with Microsoft ends by 2016 due to purchase of its Windows phone producing mobile arm. Towards the end of last year, the company announced its first Android tablet – the Nokia N1 and along came the rumours of an Android smartphone dubbed the Nokia C1.
Some couple of Nokia C1 Renders has surfaced online showing the device in its full glory including the interface. The device has a good screen-to-body ratio, rocks a metal unibody build and would run pure Android OS with the Nokia Z launcher used on the N1 tablet ontop.
Moving to the specs, the device should not be confused for the Nokia C1-01 which is a feature phone; it sports a 5-inch HD display, powered by a quad-core Intel Atom processor, 2GB of RAM, 8MP rear facing camera with flash and a 5MP front facing camera. The speaker grilles can found at bottom edge and the bezels on the display is decent.
Earlier this year, a Nokia 1100 running Android OS surfaced on benchmark and for clarity sake the Nokia C1 has no connection with the Nokia C1-01 which is a feature phone. Before the sale of Nokia Mobile Arm to Microsoft, the company released the Nokia X, Nokia XL and Nokia X2 with uninteresting specs and running a heavily forked version of Android depriving users of the essence of the OS.
