Tag: Nokia 7.2

HMD Global owned Nokia launched the first smartphone under its new 7 series last year. Dubbed the Nokia 7.1, it is a mid-range device which was praised for its premium design and capable specifications. It was then revealed a few days ago that the company is working on its successor which will be called the Nokia 7.2. In the subsequent weeks, the images and design of the handset were leaked online, and it was known that the smartphone is about to launch on the 5th of September at IFA, Berlin. Now as we move closer to the launch, more images of the Nokia 7.2 has surfaced online; which confirm the previously leaked design aspects.

The Nokia 7.2 will be another mid-range offering from HMD Global. Latest images of the smartphone reveal it will have a glass sandwich design with a bluish-green coloured back panel, but it may be offered in more than one colour when launched. The front of the device has minimal bezels with a waterdrop notch on the top. The interface of the handset is visibly stock Android, which suggests it may be Android One certified. This means it will receive major software updates for two years and security updates for three years.

Over at the back, the Nokia 7.2 has a triple camera setup and an LED flash inside a circular housing. This new design characteristic is unlike what the company has implemented before. Underneath the camera setup, a physical fingerprint sensor can be seen; which may be surprising to some as in-display fingerprint scanners are becoming commonplace in many mid-range devices. While other specifications of the handset are not known, rumours point out to a Snapdragon 710 coupled with up to 6GB of RAM inside. Unfortunately, other details like the pricing of the Nokia 7.2 are not known yet. However, since there is little time left before the official announcement, we might not have to wait too long to find that out. 

Nokia had re-entered the smartphone industry game back in the year 2017. Since then, the company has gone on to release various devices ranging from low to mid specs and price segments. It has been a year since its first-generation launches so we can expect the successors to make an appearance soon. Earlier this month, images surfaced online showcasing a smartphone with a triple camera setup with the model number “TA-1198 “. It is now believed to be the Nokia 7.2 whose case has freshly leaked.

 Design

According to the images, Nokia 7.2 has a notched display on the front with negligible bezels on every corner and side. On the rear, the device features a triple camera setup which is placed right above the fingerprint scanner. The camera module houses a total of three cameras whose resolutions are currently unknown. The bottom of the device features a USB Type-C charging port which is flanked by a mic and loud speaker grill on either side. Its top sports a 3.5mm headphone jack and a secondary mic. The renders also detail the volume rockers and power button on the right of the device. An unspecified button is found on the left which is likely to be a dedicated Google Assistant button as seen with the Nokia 3.1 Plus. 

TA-1198 is reportedly equipped with the Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 660 SoC and an FHD+ display panel. It is powered by a 3500mAh battery and sports  48MP primary rear camera. Finer details regarding the specifications of the device are still a mystery.
