Nokia X has rung up 1 Million pre-orders in China and whats more impressive its got to that number is just four days. Nokia's forked Android running X smartphone has very modest specifications with a 4-inch display, dual-core processor and a 3 MP fixed focus camera, 512 MB RAM and 4 GB expandable storage. But it really goes to show how much people wanted Nokia to make a Android smartphone.

Stephen Elop suggested that the Nokia X series will be a gateway to the Lumia series, but it seems that Nokia's Android smartphones will thrive on their own, if Microsoft decides to keep the project alive.

The dual-SIM Nokia X was launched in India on March 10th for Rs. 8599 and is currently available atmajor offline and online retailers.
