A leaked image, seems to reveal a feature phone that looks like the Nokia 220, supposedly running Android. The phone doesn’t include any branding, and includes a four-directional d-pad, T9 keyboard, and other traditional feature phone settings.
It consists a shortcut key to invoke Google Assistant,with a microphone icon.It could also used for other voice-powered function.
There are icons for YouTube, Chrome browser, and the camera. There’s another icon that doesn’t resemble any known apps or services yet. However, the icon follows Google’s Material Design language.
Currently, Google offers a watered-down version of its mobile operating system called Android Go. It is built for smartphones with minimal resources, such as 1GB of RAM or even less. It’s unclear whether Google wants to get into the feature phone market like this, especially after its massive investment in KaiOS.
While you should take today’s leaked hands-on images of the Android-based Nokia feature phone with a grain of salt, it might also turn out to be a KaiOS-based smartphone with a bunch of tweaks. The leaked image reveals a home screen that looks similar to the way home screens appear on KaiOS-based smartphones. However, Chrome isn’t available on KaiOS since the operating system is a fork of Firefox OS itself.
Regardless of all these questions, it’ll be interesting to see if we get a Nokia feature phone running some version of Android. HMD Global currently sells a KaiOS-based phone called Nokia 8110 4G ‘Banana’ phone.
Conclusion: with Nokia (featured+andriod) phone,It is very easy for getting phone in cheap rate with smart featured.Dream of keeping andriod phone for old Age person will become true.
