Pure Android Nokia 5.1, Nokia 3.1, & Nokia 2.1 Released For Cool Prices


The old Nokia brand has been completely revamped by a Finnish company, HMD Global. Prior to the advent of HMD Global, the Nokia brand was known for durable feature phones which currently do not hold a reasonable chunk of the phone market. Earlier this year at MWC 2018, we saw the likes of Nokia 8 Sirocco, Nokia 6 (2018), and Nokia 7 Plus. Most recently, the mid-range Nokia X6 sold out in 10 seconds which is impressive. Now, the Nokia brand has released three Pure Android up-to-date devices with Android One and Android Go, and at an affordable price. These smartphones are Nokia 5.1, Nokia 3.1, and Nokia 2.1.

Nokia 5.1

The Nokia 5.1 is powered by a MediaTek Helio P18 octa-core processor coupled with 2GB/3GB of RAM and 16GB/32GB of internal storage, which can be expanded via MicroSD card up to 128GB. It is equipped with a 5.5-inch 2,160 x 1,080 IPS LCD full HD+ display with an aspect ratio of 18:9 which is protected by a Corning Gorilla Glass and an oleophobic layer to prevent fingerprint stains. In the camera department, the Nokia 5.1 comes with a 16MP rear camera which supports phase detection auto-focus and a dual-tone LED flash while up front, it has an 8MP selfie shooter. This smartphone also comes with a rear fingerprint scanner, runs on Android 8.0 and its lights are kept on by a 2,970mAh battery which is not a problem because Android Oreo perfectly conserves power.
According to the company, this smartphone will perform better than the previous generation and it will be available in Copper, Tempered Blue, and Black colour options. All the variants of this smartphone will have a global average retail price of $218 starting from July 2018. The higer variant may be as high as $254.
