In an interview with ET, Nokia CEO Rajeev Suri has talked about how Nokia wants to move fast to new consumer products. He has also revealed that Z launcher has seen some 100,000 activations and this is just pre-Beta phase for the innovative Android Launcher.
The new Nokia doesn’t have a direct consumer connect any more with the sale of the devices business, but under Suri, that could well make a comeback. “Maybe, we will do something else that will relate to the B-to-C business. We just launched a Z launcher – a predictive app on Android devices, which got 100,000 activations when it was a beta.That’s (B-2-C) an area where we want to move fast, fail, learn and move forward to new products,” he said.
We have already reported how Nokia is planning something related to Camera & Android (may be other platforms too). Nokia is also planning multi-platform ( 3D ) video editing & playback applications.
