The Nokia 9 PureView is still the most powerful
Nokia phone but definitely not the most powerful phone you can buy now. It
recently launched in India, nearly half a year since it was first announced. A
report says a successor is coming soon and it is reported to arrive as the
Nokia 9.1 Pureview.
According to NokiaPowerUser, the Nokia 9.1 PureView
was originally scheduled for a Q3 launch but it has now been pushed forward to
Q4 based on info from a source. The postponement is said to be as a result of some unresolved issues
with certain aspects of the phone such as its camera. We hope the delay is
worth it, so as to avoid a repeat of the negative reviews the Nokia 9 PureView
suffered.
With respect to features and specs, HMD Global will
continue its partnership with Light. The camera performance should get a
significant improvement especially in low-light and video recording. It is also
said to be faster thanks to a better processor and better software algorithms
developed with help from Light.
The Nokia 9.1 PureView is also said to feature a
punch-hole display like that of the Nokia X71 and there are reports of
prototypes with this design. Under the hood of the phone will be a Snapdragon
855 processor. It will also run Android Q out of the box and of course have 5G
support. We are not sure if there will be an LTE-only version.
