HMD Global’s Nokia 8 is just a couple of months in
the open but rumours of the next generation Nokia 9 has continued to rent the
air lately. We had first seen a couple of mock-up renders of the device and
recently, another render emerged purported to be from a trusted source. The
render showed the Nokia 9 would come with a bezel-less design and not only
that, would also utilise an edge-to-edge design with 3D glass at the back.
Apart from renders, what is said to be the Nokia 9’s
display panel has also appeared on China’s Baidu. The source of this display
panel image is relatively new but it looks very much similar to the renders we
have been seeing. Accordingly, the source also added that the display will be a
5.5-inch display which is similar to what had earlier leaked.Apart from the
size, the Nokia 9 is expected with a QHD resolution as well as 3D glass back
and the display will be an OLED panel.
The 3D glass back is said to be included due to the incorporation of
wireless charging on the Nokia 9.
In addition, the Nokia 9 is expected to feature a
Carl Zeiss dual camera setup which the source claims are superior to the Nokia
8’s setup. The device isn’t expected to come with a physical home button under
the display but will use virtual buttons. The Nokia 9 is rumoured to come with
6GB/8GB RAM, 128GB ROM, IP68 certification and it looks like there will be a
rear fingerprint sensor. The flagship device may probably feature an Iris
scanner. The device is expected to carry a price tag of around EUR 749 in
Europe.
