The Nokia X is the first Smartphone of its kind. The handset is the first Android Smartphone from the Finnish Tech giant.  A move well received by Techies all around the world. Another, fascinating bit about the Nokia X is rather than the handset being a gift to the whole world, it will only launch in selected Smartphone markets.

The Huawei Ascend W1 is one of the best budget handsets in the Kenyan Smartphone market. Through the Ascend W1, Huawei went a step further to come up with a handset worth your cash. The device looks amazing and has some of the best tech specs you can get from a low-end device.
