The Nokia X family was a range of budget smartphones that was produced and marketed by Microsoft Mobile, originally introduced in February 2014 by Nokia. The smartphones run on the Nokia X platform, a Linux-based operating system which was a fork of Android. Nokia X is also known generally as the Nokia Normandy. It is regarded as Nokia's first Android device
during the company's Microsoft partnership and was in the process of selling its mobile phone business to Microsoft, which eventually happened two months later.{{cite web|url=https://www.theverge.com/2014/2/24/5440498/nokia-x-android-phone-hands-on|title=This is Nokia X: Android and Windows Phone collide|website=theverge.com|date=24 February 2014 }}
The Nokia X devices heavily resemble the Asha phones, and also contain some Lumia features. They have a single "back" button like the Asha 50x and 230. A "home" button was added to the X2 series when they were released in June 2014. They are primarily targeted towards emerging markets, and never made its way to Western Europe or North America.
Nokia CEO Stephen Elop called it the Nokia X family during an announcement, possibly to distinguish it from the unrelated Xseries that ran from 2009 to 2011.
In July 2014, Microsoft Mobile announced the end of the X range after just five months (as well as Asha and Series 40) in favor of solely producing and encouraging the use of Windows Phone products.{{cite news|title=Microsoft is killing off Nokia's feature phones in favor of Windows Phone|url=https://www.theverge.com/2014/7/17/5912289/microsoft-kills-feature-phones-in-favor-of-windows-phone|access-date=17 July 2014|work=The Verge|date=17 July 2014}}
Background
Despite choosing the Windows Phone operating system for its Lumia series of smartphones, Nokia had experimented with the Android platform in the past. Images of a Nokia N9 running Android 2.3 were leaked in 2011. They were believed to be genuine, as Steven Elop mentioned Nokia had considered using Android at one time.{{cite web |url=https://www.engadget.com/2011/06/24/nokias-android-flirtations-revealed/ |title=Nokia's Android flirtations revealed |last=Savov |first=Vlad |website=Engadget |date=2011-06-14 |access-date=2013-07-14 |publisher=AOL}}

On 13 September 2013, the New York Times writer Nick Wingfield revealed that Nokia had been testing the Google Android operating system on its Lumia hardware. Another project, known as "Asha on Linux", used a forked version of Android without Google services.{{cite news |url=http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/09/13/behind-microsoft-deal-the-specter-of-a-nokia-android-phone/?_r=0 |title=Behind Microsoft Deal, the Specter of a Nokia Android Phone |last=Wingfield |first=Nick |date=2013-09-13 |access-date=2014-06-25 |newspaper=The New York Times |location=New York City}}
The Asha series previously ran the Java-based Series 40 and Asha platforms. These were not as functional as a similarly priced low-end Android handset, a price range that Windows was not able to provide Windows Phones in.{{cite web |url=http://www.allaboutsymbian.com/flow/item/18891_Asha_Normandy-an_Android_power.php |title=Asha Normandy — an Android powered phone from Nokia? |last=Blandford |first=Rafe |date=2013-12-11 |access-date=2014-06-25 |website=All About Symbian}} Meltemi (operating system), a Linux-based operating system designed to replace Series 40, had been scrapped by the company.{{cite news |url=http://news.cnet.com/8301-1035_3-57480511-94/nokia-quietly-kills-linux-based-meltemi-report-says/ |title=Nokia quietly kills Linux-based Meltemi, report says |last=Reisinger |first=Don |date=2012-06-26 |access-date=2014-06-25 |website=CNET |publisher=CBS Interactive}}
The Chinese technology site CTechnology revealed that despite the announced merge of Nokia with Microsoft, development of the Asha on Linux project was continuing until November 2013 and 10,000 prototype units had been manufactured by Foxconn, containing a Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 8225Q chip.{{cite web |url=http://www.unwiredview.com/2013/09/19/nokia-still-working-on-android-phone-wont-cancel-until-november-foxconn-already-made-10k-prototypes/ |title=Nokia still working on Android phone, won't cancel until November.

A report by Tom Warren from The Verge on 11 December 2013 showed an Asha-like device, codenamed "Normandy". He said that "despite the finalisation of the acquisition, development of the device is continuing."{{cite news |last=Warren |first=Tom |url=https://www.theverge.com/2013/12/10/5197746/nokia-android-phone-normandy |title=This is Nokia's Android phone |website=The Verge |publisher=Vox Media |date=2013-12-10 |access-date=2014-01-08}} As of late January 2014 the deal stands as not finalized because of scrutiny from Chinese regulators.{{cite news |last1=Burrows |first1=Peter |last2=Bass |first2=Dina |title=Google's Moto Sale Casts Doubts on Microsoft's Nokia Plan |work=Bloomberg News |publisher=Bloomberg |location=New York City |date=2014-01-30 |url=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-01-30/google-s-moto-sale-casts-doubts-on-microsoft-s-nokia-plan.html |access-date=2014-02-10}}) AllThingsD suggested that Microsoft may not stop development of the device.{{cite web |url=http://allthingsd.com/20131211/why-nokia-is-building-an-android-phone-and-microsoft-might-not-kill-it/ |title=Why Nokia Is Building an Android Phone and Why Microsoft Might Not Kill It |last=Fried |first=Ina |website=All Things Digital |publisher=Dow Jones |date=2013-12-11 |access-date=2014-01-08}}
A 14 December 2013 report by CTechnology claimed that the device development had been halted, along with an Android-based {{convert|7|in|cm}} Snapdragon 400 tablet. The two projects were to have been created by Nokia's CTO division, which Microsoft did not acquire, with Peter Skillman, the head of UX Design, at the helm of the UI design.

A further leak by @evleaks showed a press image with several colour options for the phone.{{cite web |url=http://www.phonedog.com/2013/12/23/new-nokia-normandy-leak-shows-the-android-device-in-several-colors/ |title=New Nokia Normandy leak shows the Android device in several colors |last=Wagner |first=Alex |website=PhoneDog |date=2013-12-23 |access-date=2014-01-08}}

According to Eldar Murtazin, Microsoft was not keen on the idea, saying there were "too many politics" around the project. He claimed it would have to be released in February, before the acquisition of Nokia was completed, if at all.{{cite web|url=http://www.technobuffalo.com/2014/01/16/nokia-normandy-android-phone-ready-if-politics-dont-get-in-the-way-sources-say/ |title=Nokia Normandy Android Phone Ready, If Politics Don't Get in the Way, Sources Say |publisher=TechnoBuffalo |access-date=2014-01-17}} Another source suggested Microsoft would use the device as a trojan horse to increase Windows Phone adoption.

Unveiling
=First generation=
The phone was unveiled by the Nokia CEO at Mobile World Congress on 24 February 2014. Two variants, the Nokia X and the Nokia X+ were released, with the Nokia X+ having 768 MB RAM as opposed to the 512 MB RAM reported by leaks, as well as a microSD card included in the box. The phone also contained the Lumia-inspired UI design, in addition to the Nokia suite of mobile applications as previously leaked.{{cite web|last=Robertson |first=Adi |url=https://www.theverge.com/2014/2/24/5440498/nokia-x-android-phone-hands-on |title=This is Nokia X: Android and Windows Phone collide |publisher=The Verge |date=2014-02-24 |access-date=2014-03-02}}

The Nokia XL 4G was released in China in July 2014. It featured a 1.2 GHz quad-core CPU over the 1.0 GHz dual-core CPU in the original Nokia XL, LTE support of LTE bands, 1 GB of RAM over the original 768 MB and a lower weight.
Aftermath
In an interview with Forbes, former HMD Global CEO Arto Nummela stated that analysis showed that the Nokia X series became surprisingly popular with users of high end Samsung and Apple smartphone devices, despite the fact that it was a mid to low end device family.{{cite web|url=https://www.forbes.com/sites/ewanspence/2016/12/04/hmd-nokia-smartphone-android-google-play/#56cf97897a91|title=Finland's Impossible Dream Is Happening: Meeting The Startup Behind Nokia's Smartphone Return|first=Ewan|last=Spence|website=forbes.com}}
In May 2018, HMD Global launched a new Android phone Nokia X6, which despite its name has nothing to do with the Nokia Xseries or X family.
