In the previous week, leaked specs and images of the upcoming Nokia Daredevil smartphone had surfaced on Baidu forums. The “Nokia Daredevil” moniker is just a codename and it may release in the market with a different name. Soon after its last week’s appearance, the rumor mill started speculating that it could either be the Nokia 6.2 or Nokia 5.2. Folks at Nokia Anew Twitter account have claimed that the smartphone may release in the market as Nokia 5.2.
Last year, HMD Global did not release any Nokia 4 series smartphone. The tweet claims that the new Nokia 4 (Nokia 4.2) is the successor of the Nokia 5.1 phone from last year. Hence, the Nokia 5.2 is bound to arrive with some advanced specs. The leak claims it will be slotted in the “more expensive segment” since it is expected to come with features like ZEISS optics, PureDisplay and OZO Audio that are available on high-end models from the company. Hence, it appears that the Nokia Daredevil that is rumored to arrive with all these specs may debut in the market with Nokia 5.2 name.
The images of the Nokia Daredevil phone that had surfaced in the last week had revealed it is equipped with a waterdrop notch enabled display surrounded by thick bezels. The glass back of the smartphone has a circular module that comprises of three camera sensors and an LED flash. It is rumored to feature a 48-megapixel ZEISS optics main sensor and a superwide lens. The smartphone will also carry support for Night Mode function for shooting brighter shots in dim-light conditions.
The purported Nokia 5.2 will be an Android One. The smartphone will be powered by Snapdragon 660. The handset is backed by a 3,500mAh battery. The handset also features a 3.5mm audio jack, a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor, a USB-C port and a hardware button for Google Assistant. The model number of the smartphone is TA-1198.
There is no information available on the launch date of the smartphone. Hopefully, more details of the phone will appear in the coming days.
