Nokia 6 goes global, Nokia 5 and 3 also announced


Nokia is back! HMD-ran Nokia brand is making a big showing at MWC 2017. In addition to the retro reboot Nokia 3310, HMD Global is also showing off the new Nokia 3 and Nokia 5, as well as globally launching the Nokia 6.

Nokia 6 


The Nokia 6 first arrived to China exclusively earlier this year, but now Nokia has announced plans to make this model available globally.

As a refresher, the Nokia 6 comes with a 5.5-inch Full HD display with 2.5D Gorilla Glass, Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 processor, 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of internal storage. It features a 16 MP rear camera and an 8 MP front-facing camera, and provides dual amplifiers that HMD Global says will "deliver a 6 dB louder sound than a regular amp."  The handset also supports Dolby Atmos — designed to give audio a more 3D sound effect.

It’s worth noting that the global version will differ slightly, due to the fact it will come with Google services, as well as full support for Google Assistant. The Nokia 6 will set users back $242 when it launches alongside its brothers in the 2nd quarter of the year. There will also be a special Nokia 6 ARTE addition, which has a piano black finish and 64GB storage with 4GB RAM, priced at $299. If ARTE sounds familiar, this is a moniker used for premium models in the past, notably with the Nokia 8800.

Nokia 5 


Next we have the Nokia 5, which trades the 5.5-inch display in for a smaller 5-inch display. Other specs include a Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 processor, 16GB storage, 2GB RAM, a 13MP rear cam, 8MP wide angle front cam, and Android 7.1.1 Nougat (with Google Assistant) onboard. The Nokia 5 looks somewhat similar to its brother thanks to its metallic design, but little touches like curved edges allow it to stand out at the same time.

The Nokia 5 will ship alongside the Nokia 6 in Q2, priced at $199 and in your choice of silver, blue, matte black, or copper.

Nokia 3 


The Nokia 3 is the most low-end of the models, swapping out the metal designs for a polycarbonate back that is held together by an aluminum frame. It’s still a pretty attractive and 'premium' looking device, but not quite in the same league as the Nokia 3 and 6.

As for the specs, you get a MediaTek 6737, 2GB RAM, 16GB storage, and 5-inch display. There’s also an 8MP front and rear cam. Overall not the most exciting specs, but you do get Android 7.1.1 Nougat and a price of just $147 when it launches in Q2.

In a presentation 11 days ago at a Microsoft technical conference held in Australia , Bill Karagounis, a director of program management, pointed to a follow-on upgrade that will appear sometime after the Creators Update , which is expected to finalize and ship next month . A slide Karagounis showed during the session -- which was webcast from Microsoft's Channel 9 website included another upgrade this year after Creators as you can see it in below image.

From the Microsoft blog post : ...

MWC 2017  has even officially kicked off yet, and we’ve already seen some killer new devices launch at the trade show. Lenovo  has just taken the wraps off two new budget-friendly smartphones, the Moto G5 and Moto G5 Plus . The Moto G5 and G5 Plus  look basically the same, save for the Moto G5's slightly smaller chassis. While they may not look as high end as the Moto Z lineup, both devices feature a premium aesthetic that rival other devices in this price range. Both devices have metal finishes , which is a nice step up from their plasticky-feeling predecessors. You’ll also notice the large circular camera sensors on the back, which resemble the ones on the Moto Z. While the design of the two devices may be quite similar, here’s where things start to differ quite a bit. The Moto G5 sports a 5.0-inch LCD display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 . Under the hood, it features a 1.4GHz Snapdragon 430 chipset , either 2 or 3GB of RAM (depending on the...
