Nokia N1 tablet may launch in India soon

Nokia N1, the flagship tablet by Nokia, may finally be making its way to India.

The Foxconn manufactured N1 tablet is the first offering from Nokia after the company sold its phone division to Microsoft. The tablet has been on sale in China for the past few months now and then in Taiwan which was the second market to get the tablet.

The Nokia N1 was listed on the import/export database Zauba, which has hinted that the tablet's India release is now imminent. The tablet is now being tested in India to weed out any country specific kinks, as reported by GSMArena.

The sales for Nokia N1 has been through the roofs ever since its announcement in China. Foxconn wasn't able to forecast the interest and thus had a hard time in keeping the stocks matching up the demand for the tablet.

Talking about the specs, Nokia N1 shines through with an IPS grade 7.9 inch retina display. Powered by a quad core Intel Atom Z3580 2.3GHz processor and 2GB of RAM, the tablet runs quite smoothly. There is 32 GB internal storage for your apps and media. The tablet also sports an 8MP primary camera housed in an aluminium unibody design. The tablet comes with Android Lollipop tweaked with Nokia's own Z Launcher. Though the tablet doesn't comes with Google services in China, but it does in Taiwan. For the India release, Nokia is expected to pre-load the tablet with Google services.

Nokia N1 has been decently priced at around $270 (Rs 17,122). Nokia is expected to make the official announcement soon for the N1's India release.
