HMD Global had a short online event today during which it announced a handful of products including the Nokia 2.4 and Nokia 3.4 smartphones.
Nokia 2.4
The Nokia 2.4 continues the large-screen trend adopted by the Nokia 2.3. The screen is bigger now at 6.5-inches with an HD+ resolution and a 21:9 aspect ratio. It keeps the waterdrop notch which houses a 5MP selfie camera.
The back of the phone has a 3D nano-textured design and is home to two cameras – a 13MP f/2.2 main camera and a 2MP depth sensor. Sitting below the cameras is a fingerprint scanner. HMD Global says the phone has AI imaging, night mode, and a portrait mode with support for post-capture editing.
There is an Helio P22 processor under the hood paired with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of expandable storage. HMD Global says the 4500mAh inside the phone should provide a 2-day battery life. Sadly, there is no fast charging and it also comes with a MicroUSB port.
Other features of the phone include NFC, a dedicated Google Assistant button, FM radio, and Android 10. HMD Global says the phone is Android 11 ready and it will get OS upgrades for two years and security patches for three years.
The Nokia 2.4 comes in three colorways – Charcoal, Dusk, and Fjord – and is priced at €119 in Europe and $139 in the US. It will be available for purchase this month.
Nokia 3.4
The Nokia 3.4 is the first in the series to have a punch-hole display. The screen is a 6.39-inch HD+ panel with an 8MP camera in the top left corner.
There is a Snapdragon 460 processor with 3GB of RAM and 64GB of storage that can be expanded via a MicroSD card slot. The phone has three rear cameras arranged in a cookie-shaped housing. The setup includes a 13MP primary sensor, a 5MP ultrawide angle camera, and a 2MP depth sensor. There is a fingerprint scanner under the cameras just like on the Nokia 2.4 and it also has a dedicated Google Assistant button.
The Nokia 3.4 has a 4000mAh battery capacity and should also last up to 2 days according to the manufacturer. Thankfully, it charges via a USB-C port. It also has an audio jack, an FM radio, and NFC.
The phone is priced at €159/$179 and will be available in Charcoal, Fjord, and Dusk in October.
