Nokia 7 Design and Specs Leak!!!

 By Vaibhav Jain on October 18, 2017       

Nokia is all set to reveal the Nokia 7 on October 19th during an event in China. The device is expected to feature mid-tier specifications. We haven't seen any possible renders or live images of the Nokia 7, but that's going to change today, thanks to an alleged leak from baidu.

As you can see in the below Sketch (Sort of), the Nokia 7 looks promising and resembles the upcoming Nokia 9 in terms of the rear design. The device may come with a 5.2" 1080p display. It will be powered by Snapdragon 630 SoC.

One thing that is worth noticing is that the Nokia 7 will be having rear fingerprint sensor instead of front fingerprint sensor, which can be found in previous Nokia Smartphones including the Nokia 5, Nokia 6 and Nokia 8.

This leaked design is very likely going to be the real deal, as it came from trusted Nokia leaker Nokibar. That said, Nokia is expected to reveal the Nokia 7 tomorrow in China.

Recently Nokia announced the Nokia 8 with Outdated 5.3-inch QHD IPS display with huge chin and top bezels. It is powered by the Snapdragon 835 SoC, 4GB of RAM, and 64GB of internal storage. The phone comes dual rear cameras with Zeiss Optics, Splashproof (IP54), OZO 360-degree Audio, and includes USB Type-C port, Bluetooth 5.0, and NFC. The phone runs Android 7.1.1 Nougat.

Nokia 7 will be priced in at around 350$ which lies between the Nokia 6 and Nokia 8. Thoughts?
