The first Nokia-branded Android tablet, the Nokia N1, as expected,
has been launched in China. The tablet is currently up for pre-orders
at CNY 1,599 (Rs. 16,308 approximately), which is roughly around the
price stated at its unveiling - $249 (roughly Rs. 15,400) before taxes.
Unfortunately,
the Finnish company has not revealed any availability details of the N1
Android tablet for other markets; though Nokia is likely to launch the
tablet in Europe next month.
Unveiled in November last year, the Nokia N1 tablet comes with a brand-licensing agreement with Foxconn to manufacture, distribute, and sell the tablet in China.
For
specifications, the Nokia N1 features a 7.9-inch (2048x1536 pixel) IPS
LED-backlit display with by Corning Gorilla Glass 3; a 64-bit 2.3GHz
Intel Atom Z3580 processor (4 cores, 4 threads) coupled with a PowerVR
G6430 GPU; 2GB of LPDDR3 (800MHz) RAM; 32GB of inbuilt storage
(non-expandable); an 8-megapixel rear autofocus camera; a 5-megapixel
fixed focus camera; 5300mAh battery, and the predictive Nokia Z Launcher interface
on top of Android 5.0 Lollipop. Connectivity options on Nokia N1
include Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/n/ac with MIMO, Bluetooth 4.0, Micro-USB with
reversible Type-C connector, and a 3.5mm audio jack. The Nokia N1 tablet
weighs in at 318 grams, and measures 200.7x138.6x6.9mm.
To
recall, with the launch of the Nokia N1 tablet, the company neatly
bypassed the restrictions imposed by the Microsoft deal, after the
acquisition of Nokia's devices and services division by Microsoft in April last year, the Finnish company can no longer use the Nokia brand on smartphones till Q4 2016, and on feature phones for 10 years.
