Nokia 1, Nokia 1 Plus and Nokia 2.1 Will Receive Android 10 (Go Edition) Update in 2020

When it comes to rolling out software updates, HMD Global remains a front runner. Most of the smartphone brands in the industry are struggling to provide iterative Android updates, HMD Global has updated even its two-year-old smartphones to Android 9 Pie. Just yesterday, Google announced Android 10 (Go Edition) with some new features. Today, HMD Global’s CPO Juho Sarvikas confirmed on Twitter that it would provide the Android 10 (Go Edition) update to its Android Go smartphones. Right now, HMD Global has three Android Go smartphones- Nokia 1, Nokia 1 Plus and the Nokia 2.1. The Nokia 1 Plus was launched earlier this year and the newest model in the list. All the three Android Go phones from HMD Global are currently on Android Pie (Go Edition), but in 2020, they will be updated to Android 10 (Go Edition).

Android 10 (Go Edition) Coming to Nokia Android Go Smartphones

For the unaware, HMD Global is a major partner to Google and all its smartphones are part of Android One and Android Go programmes. While the full-fledged smartphones will come with Android One certifications, the entry-level Nokia phones ship with Android Go Edition software. The first Android Go smartphone from HMD Global was the Nokia 1 and it was unveiled at MWC 2018 last year. Launched with Android Oreo (Go Edition), the Nokia 1 received Android Pie (Go Edition) earlier this year in June. The second Android Go smartphone from HMD Global was Nokia 2.1 and it also shipped with Android Oreo (Go Edition), but later on, it received Android Pie update. The latest Android Go smartphone from HMD Global is the Nokia 1 Plus that was announced at the MWC 2019 alongside the Nokia 9 PureView.

Thankfully, HMD Global has revealed the timeline as well on when these phones will receive the update. Being the latest one of the three, the Nokia 1 Plus will receive the Android 10 (Go Edition) update first and that will happen in Q1 2020. The remaining two smartphones will get the update sometime in Q2 2020.
