Leaked Nokia 8.1 marketing images reveal design and spec sheet
With exactly one week to go until its expected debut, official marketing images of the upcoming Nokia 8.1 have leaked out online confirming what was originally thought – the device is simply an international variant of China’s Nokia X7.
As seen in the renders, the Nokia 8.1 makes use of a tall 6.18-inch display complete with a small chin below and a relatively wide notch up top. The frame of the device is carved out of an aluminum while, just like most modern smartphones, the rear panel is made out of glass. Speaking of which, this is home to a fingerprint scanner and a vertical camera set up in the middle that is home to two sensors and ZEISS branding.
Moving on to the smartphone’s specifications and features, the various images list a 20-megapixel selfie camera that is backed up by AI enhancements. Additionally, over on the rear, a main 12-megapixel sensor accompanied by a secondary 13-megapixel unit and a dual-tone LED flash can be found. In regards to performance, the smartphone will arrive powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 710. Depending on each user’s preference, this will then be paired with either 4/64GB or 6/128GB. Also worth noting is the presence of stock Android 9 Pie straight out of the box as part of the Android One program and the 3,500mAh battery.
The marketing images in question, unfortunately, don’t confirm when the smartphone will be released or how much it’ll cost. However, with Christmas just around the corner, HMD Global will probably launch this device soon after the unveiling in most major markets.
