It seems the phone might actually be a reality and we will see at least one Nokia Android phone before the Microsoft deal goes through. The leaks also suggest that Nokia will retain the popular and colorful Lumia design in Normandy as well. As you can see in the leaked images, the UI has been customized. The images show Nokia Normandy lock screen along with Viber and Skype running on the device. According to what has been leaked so far, Nokia A110 AKA Normandy will come with a 4 inch display with 854 x 480 FWVGA resolution, a 5 MP rear camera and Android 4.4 KitKat. The Qualcomm chipset will most probably be Snapdragon 200 quad core processor. The existence of Nokia based Android smartphone is definitely exiting, but we will hold our breath for now till the official confirmation.
