Say Hello to the first Nokia-branded Android smartphone – Nokia 6
HMD Global released its first Nokia-branded Android smartphone – Nokia 6. While the company was expected to make its comeback to the smartphone market some time during the year, few would have predicted it to be done so soon.
Since Microsoft overtook the company (and later disinvested in its devices division), this would be the first smartphone stamped with Nokia-brand. Chinese manufacturer Foxconn is now developing the product.
On Sunday, the phone was made official on the company’s website, here’s the specs and other information about the new Nokia 6:
