Despite of the ‘yet to be completed’ Microsoft’s acquisition, Nokia seems to be working on an android phone under the name ‘Normandy’ with a forked version of android. Lately, evleaks tweeted the pictures of Nokia’s Android UI, which now has elevated the expectations from the Finnish company.

As Microsoft is about to close the deal in a few months, Nokia is planning to replace its low-cost Asha models with this one. It is evident that the android version running on this model will not be the Google dominant one, but a heavily customized version of it.
A Nokia phone, Nokia A110 was also tested in the AnTuTu benchmarking tool which confirms the existence of a Nokia phone which runs Android. This leak also reveals that the phone will be powered with a Snapdragon processor with a 5 Mega Pixel camera with Android 4.4.1.
Well, if Microsoft completes the acquisition, the fate of this phone will be a cliffhanger for the Nokia universe and it may never surface.
I guess its a fake news
