A new Nokia phone with the model number TA-1157 has
been seen at the FCC. The listing includes schematics and a few key specs. The Nokia TA-1157 is an Android
One phone with dual rear cameras. The sensors share a single housing with the LED
flash and are positioned in the middle of the phone in a vertical arrangement.
There is a fingerprint scanner below the setup. The schematic diagram also
confirms it will have NFC.
The FCC document reveals the phone is 148.95 mm long
and 71.3 mm wide. It also measures 165.1 mm diagonally. Based on the
dimensions, we believe the Nokia TA-1157 will have a screen size less than
6.0-inches. It will also have support for LTE bands 1, 3, 5, 7, 8, 20, 28, 38,
40, 41. It should launch in Europe since there is band 20 support.
The Nokia TA-1157 will come in two variants, at
least for the rest of the world. One will have 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage
and the other will have 2GB of RAM and 16GB of storage. We expect both will
have support for storage expansion.
The document also reveals the device will pack a
3,000mAh battery. There will be two suppliers for the battery – Sunwoda
Electronic Co. and Jiade Energy Technology. Both suppliers are based in China. We are not sure about the
official name of the Nokia TA-1157 but we believe it might be the Nokia 3.2 or
Nokia 5.2 seeing as the Nokia 3 and Nokia 5 series are the only Nokia phones
that come in 2GB RAM + 16GB storage configuration. Nevertheless, we expect the
phone to be announced at MWC 2019.
