One major announcement came from Nokia , which is introducing three new low-cost phones, named X, X+, and XL, running a forked version of the Android operating system. They are priced between approximately $120 and $150.

He also discusses the company's diversification away from Windows Phone in finally releasing Android devices, and what this means for Microsoft and its mobile ambitions.
