Nokia Normandy Android Phone Gets Rendered in Detail
Apparently the Finns bought by Microsoft are secretly working on a Nokia Android phone in the labs and sources say it’s coming sooner than you think. Based on the leaks, designer Jonas Daehnert pulled off an entire gallery of renders of the Nokia Normandy, as the device is codenamed right now.
Apparently, Nokia wants to separate from the main Android vision, just like Amazon and give the OS its own twist. Sources are saying that this model is designed as sort of an Asha unit, an equivalent to lower cost devices, that offer access to standard smartphone apps. I’m pretty sure Microsoft won’t allow this anytime soon, so don’t get your hopes up.
The designer behind this Nokia concept claims it comes with a 4 inch 16:10 screen and that the handset measures 9.2 mm. It also comes in a variety of colors, that include green, cyan, black, white and obviously red. From what I can see there are no capacitive buttons here, neither Windows Phone ones, nor Android ones, only a singular Back button. The facade of the Normandy is similar to the Fabula design, while the back is also pretty standard to the Nokia design series.
Will a Nokia with Android exist in the future? What do you think?

HTC One 2/ HTC M8 Take 3: Techradar Create a Superb 3D Render (Video)
After seeing a bunch of HTC M8 renders that more or less impressive, we’ve found a truly fantastic piece of work here by TechRadar. Owen Hughes tipped us about this beautiful render, that’s detailed in the video below on the TechRadar YouTube channel.
This is pure gadget pr0n, since this HTC One 2 as they call it adopts an innovative compound construction for improved ergonomics. We’ve got a 2.3 GHz quad core Snapdragon 800 CPU inside, 3 GB of RAM and a 4000 mAh battery. The screen is a 5 inch 2K display, an edge to edge unit that looks stunning and is very crisp.
Android 4.4 KitKat and HTC Sense 6.0 take care of the software side of things, while a 10 Ultrapixel camera can be found at the back. The camera has a new UI and the general UI is now more fluid and better organized. We’ve got a fingerprint sensor integrated into the HTC logo at the bottom of the screen, that unlocks the device with a single touch.
The HTC M8 comes in 16, 32 and 64 GB storage versions with microSD card slot included in the mix.
