New Delhi, June 25 – Microsoft has unveiled the next-generation of Nokia X, the Nokia X2 . The device has been priced at 99 euros (Before taxes and subsidies). A post on http://conversations.nokia.com said,
“The distinctively designed Nokia X2 smartphone brings quality hardware, enhanced performance, the unique Fastlane experience and popular Microsoft services to a wider audience.”
