Nokia T20 tablet has a 2K display, Unisoc chip, 4G, and starts at £179.99

The last Nokia tablet was the Nokia N1 released in November 2014. After almost seven years and under new owners of the Nokia Mobile brand, a new model dubbed the Nokia T20 has arrived.

The Nokia T20 is the first Android tablet from the Finnish company, HMD Global Oy, which currently owns the license to make and sell Nokia-branded mobile devices. The new tablet has a familiar design language which we have seen on Nokia smartphones launched from the manufacturer. It also comes with all the software features associated with the brand.

Nokia T20 Design

With respect to its design, the Nokia T20 isn’t a cheaply made device. The back is covered in aluminum with a sandblasted finish and the device has an IP52 rating. Up in front is a large display surrounded by not-the-slimmest of bezels. The corners of the tablet are rounded which should make it more comfortable to hold for long. The spec sheet says it is 7.8mm thick and weighs 465 grams. At launch, the Nokia T20 will be available in a single colorway – Deep Ocean.

Nokia T20 Specifications

The display of the tablet measures 10.4-inches and it has a 2K (1200 x 2000) resolution and a 5:3 aspect ratio. Nokia says there is toughened glass protecting the display but doesn’t reveal the brand. The screen has a brightness boost feature, SGS low blue light certification, and a brightness level of 400 nits.

Powering the Nokia T20 is the Unisoc T610 processor – an octa-core chip with two Cortex-A75 cores clocked at 1.8GHz and six Cortex-A55 cores clocked at 1.8GHz too. There is 4GB of RAM and the 64GB of storage can be expanded by up to an additional 512GB via a MicroSD card slot.

A single 5MP camera sits in front and it is positioned at the top bezel in landscape mode. On the back is an 8MP camera along with an LED flash which may come in handy when you want to shoot or record in low-light.

The Nokia T20 has stereo speakers with a powerful amplifier, FM radio, and Nokia’s signature OZO Audio technology. There are two microphones too. There is no fingerprint scanner but you do get Face Unlock.

Under the metal back is an 8200mAh battery with support for 18W fast charging. The manufacturer claims users should be able to get up to 10 hours of movies or 15 hours of web surfing on a single charge. Unfortunately, you won’t be able to charge at the maximum supported rating as the charger bundled with it maxes out at 10W. Charging is via USB-C and there is an audio jack too.

The Nokia T20 ships with Android 11 out of the box with Google Kids Space and Google Entertainment Space. Nokia says it will receive two years of OS upgrades which means it should get upgraded to Android 12 and Android 13. It will also receive 3 years of monthly security updates while the enterprise edition will get 4 years of security updates.

Nokia T20 Price and Availability

The Nokia T20 is priced at £199.99 f(~$271) or the 4G version which has a Nano SIM card slot while the WiFi version is priced at £179.99 (~$244). You can pre-order starting today but it won’t ship until October 11.

If you pre-order the tablet, you get 50% off the Nokia T20 Rugged Case priced at £39.99 or the Rugged Flip Cover priced at £49.99.

Nokia schedules event for October 6, teaser hints at a tablet

A new Nokia device is coming soon, and from the teaser, the device will be the first of a new product category since the brand was licensed to HMD Global.

The event is scheduled for October 6 and will most likely be an online-only event. The teaser shows a number of already announced Nokia products that include the refreshed Nokia 3310, Nokia 8110 4G, Nokia 6.2, and the Nokia XR20. At the far right is a pretty big box that most likely houses a larger device.

That retail box is most likely for the Nokia T20 tablet that has been surfacing in the news since June.

It has been reported that the tablet will have a 10.36-inch display, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, a Unisoc processor, and will be available in Wi-Fi and 4G variants. The Nokia T20 should also run Android 11 out of the box and a listing has revealed it will have support for 10W charging.

HMD Global is joining other manufacturers that have launched a tablet in recent times. The tablet market which suffered a decline in market sales over the years saw a rise in sales during the pandemic. Now new players as well as those who have previously abandoned the tablet market are announcing new models.

The Nokia T20 won’t be the first Nokia-branded tablet though. Back in 2015, a Nokia-branded Android tablet called the Nokia N1 was announced in partnership with Foxconn.
