Here are leaked photos of the Nokia C1 Android-powered smartphone

Following up on the N1 tablet, Nokia's upcoming C1 handset showed up in some leaked photos and we're getting a glimpse of what a Nokia-designed Android device is going to look like. Supposedly powered by an Intel chipset and 2GB of RAM, this will be a 5-inch device with a full 1080p HD display and it will run the upcoming Android 6.0 OS (Marshmallow).

This time around ODMs will build off Nokia's design and market the device using Nokia's branding.

The C1 will be priced to be affordable and might be an emerging markets or prepaid focused device.
