Nokia is preparing strongly for 2018. Among its future releases is the Nokia 1, your lowest-end mobile for emerging markets that will work with Android Go, the light version of the operating system. Now the first image of this device has been leaked.
Nokia 1: a lightweight and cheap mobile for emerging markets
The idea behind the Nokia 1 is to create a suitable device for emerging markets that do not enjoy good connections and in which cheaper terminals with more modest specifications are offered. At the same time, Google created Android Go with the same intentions, offering an operating system preloaded with light applications and that works better in terminals with little RAM.
Under these ideas, rumors place the Nokia 1 under the following conditions: a price around 80 euros, 1 GB of RAM, 8 GB internal memory and a screen 720p. its CPU It would be a Snapdragon 212. There are still other details to be known such as the resolution of the camera or the inches of the screen, but they can be deduced based on reducing the characteristics of the current Nokia 2. Therefore, we would talk about 5 inches or less, and an 8 MP rear camera and a camera Selfie 5 MP maximum.
Continuing with the cameras, dual cameras would clearly be avoided, except for a major surprise on the front. At filtered appearance that we can see in the images above, it is verified that it would only have a single objective in the rear area, which would be accompanied in the same module by a flash. In addition, there is no trace of a fingerprint sensor, which would be displaced to the front if it exists. The materials also do not seem to be able to compare to its older brothers, giving a feeling commensurate with the price range it is focused on.
Inside the Nokia road plan: conquering all ranges
The plan of Nokia It is quite clear: expand across all ranges and territories to cover many users and markets. The Nokia 1 is a vital part of that strategy and was part of their plans, as it was seen thanks to revealed by the Nokia 5 camera app. Other devices to be aware of by HMD Global in 2018 they are the Nokia 4, Nokia 7 Plus and Nokia 9, which would target the low, medium and high ranges respectively.
Meanwhile the Nokia 6 (2018) has already been officially presented, so the year started with Nokia keeping the rhythm of throws. The official presentation of Nokia 1 is expected for the Mobile World Congress 2018 in Barcelona. It will be then when we see the final look that this low-end device will look like.
