HMD Global already has an extensive lineup of budget
smartphones ranging from the Nokia 1 to the Nokia 5.1. But if a number of new
FCC documents (via Nashville Chatter) are anything to go by, the Finnish
manufacturer could soon introduce yet another low-cost smartphone.
Referred to as the Nokia TA-1124, the new device
looks set to be the first Nokia-branded handset to arrive powered by Qualcomm’s
Snapdragon 439. This chipset is built on the 12-nanometer process and boasts an
octa-core setup that is coupled with the Adreno 505 GPU. In this particular
case, the processor is also paired with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal
storage, although microSD expansion is to be expected.
Over in the camera department, a main 13-megapixel
camera complete with autofocus support will be accompanied by a secondary
5-megapixel sensor. Additionally, an 8-megapixel selfie snapper is listed among
the specs. Completing the whole setup will be a 6-inch display, stock Android 9
Pie, and a battery that sits between 3,400 and 3,500mAh in capacity.
In regards to which device this is, at the moment
there is no official confirmation. However, most of the details – except for
the processor and RAM count – line up with those of the Nokia 3.1 Plus. This
would suggest that it could be a separate variant of the device destines for
markets such as the US.
