Nokia N1 : Nokia's first Android tablet


NOKIA'S FIRST ANDROID TABLET

Upon hearing the name of this tablet, the first thing that came in to my mind is "it's a phone from the yester-years like the N95" but I was wrong. Presenting the Nokia N1.

WHAT MAKES IT SPECIAL ?

Sticking on Windows Phone platform for a long time made Nokia fall from it's throne on mobile phone industry due to the fact that Android platform nowadays has many features which the latter doesn't have. This also leads to the change of ownership and even the name of the legendary brand. But they shocked the world as they released three android phones namely, Nokia X, X+ and XL. Then followed by a successor which is the Nokia X2 Dual Sim . But those phones doesn't made enough appeal to those android fanboys because of the lackluster specs they had given to the said phones. So they're releasing a tablet running on the latest android platform. Having the Nokia name on a tablet is something that everyone is waiting for especially when it is running on Android. But had they already learned a lesson from the X line ? Would they give this tablet a proper treatment?

SPECIFICATIONS

• 7.9" 1536x2048 IPS LCD Display
• Corning Gorilla Glass 3
• Intel Atom Z3850 Chipset (2.3Ghz Quad-core)
• PowerVR G6430 GPU
• 2GB RAM/32GB ROM (Not expandable)
• 8MP AF camera/5MP Front camera
• GPS w/A-GPS
• Wi-Fi a/b/g/n, ac dual-band
• Android 5.0 Lollipop

Pretty competitive specs right ? But if it is priced below iPad Mini 2, it can be a good pick especially when it comes to durability.

WRAP - UP

Nokia has been pressured to release phones that can cope up with the Android flagships.  
And with the release of this tablet, I hope that it can make a big difference to the legendary company's sales.

Feel free to comment.
