The original Nokia 6 with a metal unibody design was one of the best-looking smartphones in its price category. However, the smartphone failed to capture the imagination of consumers in India. This was mainly due to its price-to-performance ratio. Smartphones like the Xiaomi Mi A1, Moto G5s Plus and Honor 7X provided much more at a similar price tag.

Specifications:

The original Nokia 6 was one of the first set of smartphones from the brand. The phone featured an industry-accepted full metal unibody design, with a 5.5-inch (16:9) aspect ratio display and a 1920 x 1080 px resolution.

Under the hood, the smartphone runs on Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 Octa-core processor. Paired with either 3 GB or 4 GB RAM with 32 GB or 64 GB onboard flash storage. The Hybrid SIM cum Micro SD card slot can accept either 2 SIM or 1 SIM and a Micro SD card (up to 128 GB).

The smartphone runs on stock Android Oreo 8.0 with the latest security patch. Everything runs on a 3000 mAh sealed battery, with support for USB OTG via micro USB port. The Nokia 6 is equipped with a 16 MP rear-facing camera and an 8 MP front-facing selfie camera.

Conclusion:

Launching a newer version with an extra gig of RAM and double the storage might not work in the present Indian market. As smartphone enthusiasts are looking for features like 18:9 aspect ratio screen, dual camera setup, faster processor and so on. If Nokia wants to capture the mid-tier smartphone segment in India, then it has to launch a smartphone like the Nokia 7 Plus, which happens to have all the bells and whistles.
