Nokia 8.2 will be the brand's first phone to feature a pop-up camera

Nokia 8.1 successor, the Nokia 8.2 is expected to launch soon. The Nokia 8.1 was launched in December 2018 and we might see the next model show up this December.

The device will be Nokia’s first smartphone featuring a pop-up camera. The phone will also use a 32MP sensor for the front camera, following the same trend that many recent Chinese manufacturers have set.

HMD Global recently launched their first phone with a punch hole display in the form of the Nokia X71 in China. Though the device hasn’t been released yet in the international market, reports by MySmartPrice suggest that the Finnish company might directly launch the new Nokia 8.2. Reports also point to the phone shipping with Android Q right out of the box.

While the company is also reportedly working on devices with 5G support, it is unlikely that the Nokia 8.2 will get the same, since it will be a mid-range device, and mid-range processors don’t support 5G networking just yet. The device could run on one of the Snapdragon 700 series processors, and will provide two years of software updates as per Nokia’s promise.
