Nokia 6 pre-orders reach 1 million
The new Android-powered Nokia 6 has already been pre-ordered by over 1 million people in China on the trading platform JD.com. Nokia 6 like we told you is only available in China and the company owning the Nokia name now, HMD Global, is keeping its lips sealed about where else the phone is available. It’s also very hard to order from JD.com if you live in another country because the company doesn’t provide international shipping.
Here are the Nokia 6’s features so far:
| Screen size and resolution | 5.5 inches full HD, 2.5 Gorilla Glass with 1920x1080 pixels |
|---|---|
| Phone dimensions | 154 x 75.8 x7.85 mm (with an extra 8.4mm for raised camera slot on rear) |
| CPU and processor | Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 processor with X6 LTE modem |
| Network speed | LTE Cat. 4, 150 Mbps DL / 50 Mbps UL |
| Memory | 4GB RAM and 64GB internal storage. Can be expanded to 128GB with a microSD card |
| Operating System | Android 7.0 Nougat |
| Camera | 16MP rear camera, 8MP front camera |
| Battery | 3000mAh, non-removable |
| Charging port | MicroUSB - USB 2.0 |
| Price | CNY 1699 or about K2450 |
In other news, Nokia is apparently also working on a digital assistant named Viki. Trusted Reviews reports that it has been described as a “means of combining all data sources into a single chat and voice based interface, (and) Viki will reportedly allow users to talk to their phones in order to perform searches or trigger a number of features such as setting alarms or checking the weather.”
We should expect Viki integrated in the Nokia 6 and the next bunch of phones being released by HMD this year. More details about it will be shared as soon as we get them.
It is a budget phone, looking at the specifications of the device.
