True. I should rephrase that to say that if the Android phone isn't in a market where local apps can possibly invalidate the need for the top tier apps in Google Play, for example Weibo in China, then the AOSP phone isn't going to fare well (I'm looking at you Amazon Fire Phone).


That's a lot of qualifiers and still doesn't have anything to do with these Nokia phones.
