Nokia may present its first Android feature phone soon
HMD Global, the maker of Nokia phones, is now planning to launch an Android-powered feature phone this year. After presenting various feature phones like Nokia 205, Nokia 3310, Nokia 8110, and more, the company is looking to go beyond KaiOS platform which powers its most top-line feature phones which includes Nokia 2720 Flip.
A listing on the Wi-Fi Alliance website has tipped a new Nokia feature phone, dubbed Nokia 400 4G, that runs GAFP. At present GAFP is an unknown term as it has not been officially announced.
Though it is an unknown term but it is not new. Last year, GAFP cropped up in a leaked image of a Nokia-style feature phone running Android. The operating system will be different from Android Go and it relies on the public Chrome code. GAFP supports touchless interaction via physical buttons. Apps such as YouTube, Google Assistant, and Google Chrome were also spotted packed into the ecosystem. It is not clear what GAFP stands for.
The launch timeline for the Nokia 400 4G is also not known as of now.
