Speculations are rife that the Finnish smartphone
maker will be launching the Nokia 7 on the 19th of October in an event by HMD
Global. As of earlier, schematics of the alleged phone have been revealed by
@nokiabar. The schematics show an give an in-depth view of the phone’s design.
Expected to be a mid-ranger, the Nokia 7 might
feature a 5/5.2-inch display with not the thinnest bezels in the market. But
there are hardly any mid-rangers that come with thin bezels. The front features
the traditional capacitive navigation buttons, as seen on other Nokia
smartphones. The physical power and volume keys lie on the right side of the
phone. On the back lies a single camera setup with LED flash, below which lies
the fingerprint scanner. The Nokia branding lies smack in the middle, aligned
vertically with the phone. Also visible is the “ZEISS” branding which lies
between the camera sensor and the LED flash.
The loading page on Tmall, the shopping website
which will be exclusively selling the new handset, shows a teaser that looks
very similar to the schematics that have been leaked, indicating towards an
imminent launch. HMD Global is set for unveiling a new handset on the 19th of
October, alleged to be the Nokia 7. While not many details have been revealed,
the phone will be a mid-range offering.
