Is Nokia Still Working on Android-powered Lumia Phones?

According to the new report from the New York Times' Nick Wingfield, it indicates that Nokia was testing its own Android based device before Microsoft Swallowed it. It is obvious that Microsoft's executives knew about Nokia's dabbling particularly about Android powered Lumia Phones. However, it is not yet decided that move made the official facade at the two companies' negotiating table or not. 


One can simply gamble, but the chances of Nokia jumping ship to Google platform was in Microsoft executives' minds. Actually, we don’t understand that what happens to Nokia. In the upcoming year 2014, when the company gives alternative of ending its partnership with Microsoft, Nokia could have pushed its device about 80% approximately that Android enjoys in present days. That is to say, this company could have already connected with a formidable fleet for an unidentified research and development cost, which could have been a “costly setback, suggested Wingfield. But, according to the source, it is noted that porting Android over to Lumia devices was not difficult task. 

On the other hand, Microsoft would likely have taken a smidgen of a smart device haymaker were Nokia to wants to switch Android platform. If we are looking to the all the Windows Phones that sold by Microsoft, we found that more than 80% of the total comes from the account of Nokia devices and other partners like Samsung and HTC enjoys small portions of the pie. It is not just possible to wonder what Microsoft might have ended up to complete the gap, however the fact that such a considerable gap would be completed by already struggling mobile platform, which is certainly a challenge. 

Prior to this year, Nokia executives expressed with Microsoft while they are criticized the software colossal for its apparently weaker mobile app store. In other words, some of the leading applications are missing by a platform that smart phone holder like to utilize is going to be a bit blocked in trying to encourage Android or iOS stalwarts to switch over.

Bryan Biniak, Nokia vice president said in a June interview with the International Business Times, "We are trying to evolve the cultural thinking [at Microsoft] to say 'time is of the essence. "Waiting until the end of your fiscal year when you need to close your targets doesn't do us any good when I have phones to sell today."

According to saying, we come to know that Biniak also recognizing the importance of partnership of two leading companies. If it is not possible, then provide more choices to potential smartphone purchasers and give more bargaining power with other devices developed heavyweights.
