Recently, the well-connected @evleaks shared another interesting piece of information, the official name of the handset, which according to him is “Nokia X.”

Although it’s not the same Android OS as we know, but a forked version of it which can be spotted on the Amazon Kindle line up.
There’s no official word from the Finnish Maker about such handset, but many reputable publications confirmed its existence. Although rumors hints towards Mobile World Congress 2014 as the event where the alleged handset will see the light of the day.
