Nokia had announced its first 5G phone,
the Nokia 8.3 5G, during an online event in March this year. The company
unmasked the device and also announced its features and price. But talking
about the availability, Nokia hinted that the device will be available in
Europe this summer.
However, a new teaser video released by
Nokia on its official Twitter page may be an indication that the model will
soon be released. The accompanying post only hinted that the Nokia 8.3 5G will
soon be available but no specific date was revealed. However, we expect the
company to announce a release schedule in the coming days.
As a reminder, the Nokia 8.3 5G features a
mammoth 6.81-inch PureDisplay with an FHD+ resolution, punch-hole and a 20:9
aspect ratio. The phone features a Pixelworks chip that helps it convert SDR to
HDR content.
The device is powered by a Snapdragon 765G
processor paired with 6GB or 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 64GB or 128GB of expandable
storage. For photography, it packs a Quad camera setup at the rear comprising a
64MP primary camera, a 12MP ultrawide angle camera, a 2MP depth sensor and a
2MP macro camera. All four cameras have ZEISS optics. A 24MP camera is housed
in the punch-hole in front for selfies.Nokia 8.3 5G
The Nokia 8.3 5G features support for more
5G bands more than any other phone in the world at present. This will likely be
one of its major selling points, especially in Europe. It not only supports
600MHz bands but also mid-bands and 3.8GHz High-bands. The phone starts at 599
Euros and will be available a single attractive Polar Night colour.
