Nokia 6 Price And Specs: Global Release Date Possible After Feb. 26 Announcement

While the Nokia 6 smartphone is now available in China, the brand’s new owner, HMD Global, is expected to make more announcements about the device Feb. 26 at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.

The previously defunct brand was revived during CES 2017, with HMD unveiling the Nokia 6 as a mid-range Android device exclusively for the Chinese market. However, with the manufacturer teasing more information about the device, pundits expect the smartphone will soon have global availability, possibly including the U.S.

GSM Arena noted that the Nokia 6 is now certified for Bluetooth in the U.S., which is a good sign the device may be available in this market. While a MWC showcase does not guarantee global availability for devices, it is often a good sign.

What makes the Nokia 6 interesting is its varying array of high- and low-end specs. It pairs a 5.5-inch display and Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 chip with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage. It also features a 16-megapixel main camera and 8-megapixel front camera, a 3,000mAh battery, a fingerprint sensor and Android Nougat. Stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos sound enhancement are another standout feature on the device.

The Nokia 6 is available in China for 1,699 CNY ($245).
