Nokia launches its first dual SIM Phone in India

Nokia launched its new dual SIM phone, the moderately priced X1 01 in India recently amidst much hype. Nokia is the last major brand to come out with their own dual SIM phones in the market that has already seen Samsung and LG take the lead in that department and although Nokia is the market leader in India, its late launch of the dual SIM phones has reduced its market share by 7% over the last financial year. In a country where people are looking for cheap options and where having two phone is not a viable option, dual SIM phones have become very handy but did Nokia make a mistake in launching its phones late? Only time will tell.
