The Nokia 2.2 was announced in June 2019 as an entry-level smartphone. it launched with an Helio A22 quad-core processor and a 5.71-inch HD+ screen with a waterdrop notch. Now, it seems HMD Global is ready to launch a successor that will arrive as the Nokia 2.3.
According to a post by NokiaPowerUser, a leak from a distributor’s database has revealed that the Nokia 2.3 is coming. The distributor’s database was also the source of a Nokia 7.2 leak prior to its release, which lends credibility to this new leak.
The database entries reveal the Nokia 2.3’s model number is TA-1206 and has dual SIM support. It also mentions the phone will come in Sand, Cyan Green, and Charcoal color variants.
While the leak does state the Nokia 2.3’s model number as TA-1206, this is not the first time it has shown up online. A device with the same model number recently passed through the FCC but it was earlier thought to be the Nokia 5.2.
The specs of the Nokia 2.3 are still unknown but there are speculations the upgrades may not be too significant seeing as it is arriving not so long after the Nokia 2.2. The Nokia 2.2 arrived with a larger display than the Nokia 2.1. It swapped the 28nm Snapdragon 425 for MediaTek’s 12nm Helio A22 and also got RAM and storage boost (2+16GB and 3+32GB). HMD Global also upgraded the rear camera from 8MP to 13MP but cut the battery capacity from 4000mAh to 3000mAh.
The Nokia 2.3 will launch as an Android One phone but we are not sure if it will run Android 10 out of the box but you can rest assured that it will get updated if it arrives with Android Pie.
