Nokia recently launched its first Android-based smartphone
in India, Nokia X. But, I think the device will not be a hit especially in
India.
Here are the five reasons why the Nokia X will fail.
1. Poor Specifications
The first and main thing is that the device boasts poor
specifications. Even though its a budget offering, the specifications and the
price of the device is not good enough to attract people. The device is a bit
over-priced and looking at the competition in India especially in the budget
segment, there are high chances for this Nokia device to fail.
2. Not the usual Android
The second reason is that although the device runs on the
Android platform, it is not the usual android that people are used to. The user
interface looks like a mixture of Android, Windows Phone, and Asha. There was
completely no need for a new hybrid considering that there are already many
mobile OS in the market.
3. Competition
The third reason is that there is a really tough
competition. There are enough Android phones in India that can kill this Nokia
smartphone.
4. Camera
The fourth reason is the camera. Nokia X features a 3 MP
camera which is no good. Nokia has always focused on smartphone photography in
its devices but that is not a case in this one. There is even no front-facing
camera.
5. Competition with Lumia 520
The fifth reason is that the device will compete directly
with the Nokia Lumia 520 and Lumia 252. There is no doubt about the heavy
success of entry-level Windows smartphone Lumia 520. So, the Lumia 520 and 525
could be a threat to Nokia X.
These are the reasons I think the Nokia X will fail. You can share your views about the reasons stated above or you can also suggest another reason via the comment section below.
