HMD Global is developing an extensive
lineup of Nokia smartphones for release later this year. One of them is
expected to be the Nokia 7.3, which may have been spotted on the set of James
Bond movie No Time To Die.
Taking over from Sony Mobile as the official
partner of James Bond movies, Nokia Mobile has confirmed that the Nokia 8.3 5G
will be heavily featured in the next installment. Reports suggest the cheaper
Nokia 5.3 could make an appearance too.
But as reported by Nokiamob, a mysterious
third smartphone was spotted on the set of No Time To Die during a tour by
Prince Charles. According to tipster Nokia Anew, the device in question is the
Nokia 7.3. Despite being an early
prototype of the smartphone, the design is understood to be final. That means
customers should expect a circular camera bump on the rear complete with
several sensors and an LED flash.
Rumor has it that the Nokia 7.3 will be
powered by the newly announced Snapdragon 690 5G and, therefore, act as the
cheapest 5G Nokia smartphone at launch. That might be coupled with a smooth
90Hz display.
There is no word on what other
specifications are planned, but the Nokia 7.3 5G is largely expected to debut
in early September at IFA 2020 ahead of a release in October. Google’s Android
10 will likely be on board at launch, but a swift update to Android 11 is to be
expected.
