Remember the black box Nokia teased yesterday? Turns out it was just packaging for the Finnish manufacturer's first Android tablet, the $249 Nokia N1.
Here are the highlights for those interested: The Nokia N1 is a 7.9-inch tablet that features a screen resolution of 2048 x 1536, 2 GB RAM, 32 GB internal memory, 64-bit quad-core Intel Z3580 CPU, 8 MP camera, 5 MP front shooter and 5,300 mAh battery along with Nokia's Z Launcher atop Android 5.0 Lollipop. The tablet features an aluminium unibody construction, and will be available in white and black color variants. Connectivity is in the form of Wi-Fi ac, Bluetooth 4.0 and a micro-USB 2.0 Type C connector. Nokia itself will not be building the tablet, and is licensing its brand name to Foxconn, who will handle manufacturing and sales:
In addition to the Nokia brand, Nokia is licensing the industrial design, Z Launcher software layer and IP on a running royalty basis to the OEM partner. The OEM partner is responsible for full business execution, from engineering and sales to customer care, including liabilities and warranty costs, inbound IP and software licensing and contractual agreements with 3rd parties.
