Nokia G50 was announced back in September in the budget segment offering an HD+ screen, 48MP cameras, and a 5,000mAh battery. The device seems to now launch in other markets as well, as the phone has been certified by the National Telecommunications Agency in Brazil.

It was just a few days ago that HMD Global announced it has a launch event scheduled for October 6. You’d expect that any product announcement it has planned will be unveiled on that day but that isn’t the case as the manufacturer has unveiled a new smartphone today – the Nokia G50.

The Nokia G50 is the fourth smartphone from Nokia to be powered by the Snapdragon 480 5G chipset, the other three being the Nokia X10, Nokia X20, and the Nokia XR20 rugged phone. It is also the first of the Nokia G-series to have 5G support.

The new smartphone has the Nordic design we have seen HMD Global use for its other phones. The back is flat but curves at the edges and at the middle is a cookie-shaped camera housing that is home to three rear cameras.

The Nokia G50 has a 6.82-inch display with an HD+ resolution and a V-notch for the 8MP front-facing camera. The main rear camera is a 48MP sensor with autofocus and it comes with a 5MP ultrawide angle camera and a 2MP depth sensor. Camera features include selfie video stabilization, watermarking, and Super Night Selfie.

The Snapdragon 480 5G processor is paired with 4GB or 6GB of RAM and 64GB or 128GB of storage. There is support for storage expansion via a MicroSD card that allows for up to an extra 512GB of storage.

There is a fingerprint scanner buried under the power key and you can use Face Unlock if you prefer that. The phone also has a dedicated Google Assistant key, an audio jack, and an FM radio. There is a 5000mAh battery under the hood with support for 18W fast charging via a USB-C port. The Nokia G50 has NFC, Bluetooth 5.0, and WiFi 6.

The Nokia G50 runs Android 11 out of the box and it will receive 2 years of OS updates and 3 years of monthly security updates. The phone will ship with a charger, headset, jelly case, screen protector, and a Type-C cable. It will also come with a free 30-day trial of ExpressVPN.

The phone will be available in October with a starting price of €270.
