Nokia 6 (2018) With 18:9 Display Hits TENAA; Might Be Powered by the Snapdragon 660 SoC

HMD Global’s Nokia 6 will be getting an update for 2018, according to a recent leak from China. This makes sense as the original Nokia 6 was first unveiled in January last year, and incidentally, it was the first Android-powered Nokia smartphone from the house of HMD Global. The upgrade of Nokia 6, for now, is said to be Nokia 6 (2018), and guess what, the device has now received TENAA certification, hinting the launch is nearing.

An upcoming Nokia 6 (2018) was spotted for TENAA certification in China. A smartphone with TA-1054 model number with dual SIM was revealed in the screenshot. The TENAA certification also has some images of the smartphone, and the Nokia 6 (2018) will be first Nokia smartphone to sport a bezel-less display with 18:9 aspect ratio, making this the first Nokia device to feature the new tall screen.

While details are unavailable yet, rumours suggest it will come with latest Snapdragon 600 series specifically the previous rumour pointed out at the usage of Snapdragon 660 SoC. The RAM too will get upgraded to 4GB in the upcoming Nokia 6 (2018).

As you can see in the images, the design of the smartphone remains the same as the original Nokia 6, but the front will be slightly changed due to the 18:9 display which covers the major portion of the front. Thanks to the same screen real estate, the fingerprint scanner on the device will be moved to the back, placed between the Nokia logo and rear camera.
