Nokia 9 Release Date Revealed!!!

 By Vaibhav Jain on December 04, 2017       

Nokia's next generation device is expected to feature a total overhaul with new design and major improvements under the hood.

We have already seen the Nokia 9 via Design Leaks. The device is expected to feature bent display just like the Galaxy Note Edge, faster processor, upgraded camera, and tiny chin and top.

HMD hasn’t confirmed a release date for the Nokia 9 and is unlikely to reveal anything until a few weeks before the launch.

However, although 2017 launch looks almost certain, Chinese media Mydrivers is confident that the Nokia 9 won’t arrive this year.

They say that HMD is planning to announce the Nokia 9 with a new Smartphone "Nokia 8 (2018)" on January 19. The Nokia 8 2018 would feature similar specs just like the Nokia 8 but with Full Screen 18:9 Display.

Nokia 8 comes with Outdated 5.3-inch QHD IPS display with huge chin and top bezels.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 9 New Color Leaks!!!

Nokia is all set to reveal its trump card, the Nokia 9 with almost Bezel-less display, dual camera, and other 2017 flagship features. We have already seen the Sketch Renders of the Nokia 9 in Orange Gold Color, but today we have another Color leak of the Nokia 9.

As you can see in the above Sketch (Sort of), the Nokia 9 looks gorgeous in Stunning Blue with bent display just like what we've seen in the Galaxy Note Edge. The device looks promising with tiny top and bottom chin.

One thing that is worth noticing is that the Nokia 9 will be having rear fingerprint sensor instead of front fingerprint+home buttons, which can be found in previous Nokia Smartphones including the Nokia 3, 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 9 along with the Nokia 2 later this year.
