The Nokia X (with Fastlane) android smartphones was recently launched with a design created for emerging markets, keeping their prices low and user interface relatively simple.
The home screen resembles the one on Nokia's Windows-based Lumia phones, even though it's Android underneath. But Nokia added a Fastlane feature, a screen with quick access to your most-used apps. You get to it by swiping from the left or right edge of the home screen or tapping the back button at the bottom.
The basic Nokia X phone costs €89 (roughly P5,500) and has a 4-inch screen, measured diagonally, and a 3 megapixel camera. A X+ version with an SD storage card costs €99 (P6,100), while an XL with a 5-inch screen and 5 megapixel camera goes for €109 (P6,800).
The Fastlane feature is a good start. Your favorite apps are just one swipe away.
The top of Fastlane shows you what's coming up, whether that's alarms about to ring or future events in your calendar. Below that are your recently used apps. The ones you just used will be at the top, so you don't have to scroll down.
For some apps, you get information that normally comes with notifications, such as previews of text messages or alerts that three people have tried to reach you on WeChat, a Chinese social network. You see small versions of recent photos and can tap for the larger version in the photo gallery app. You see calls you missed, songs you heard and websites you visited.
It could get overwhelming, so you can block certain apps and certain notifications from appearing in Fastlane. In the settings, you can also add a shortcut to one social network, such as Facebook or Twitter.
In Fastlane, Facebook would drop toward the bottom in a matter of days, unless you choose it as your one shortcut.--Source: NDTV Gadgets
