Nokia 6 (2018) With Rear Fingerprint Sensor, Snapdragon 630 Launched: Price, Release Date, Specifications
After a bunch of leaks and rumours, HMD Global has now formally announced the Nokia 6 (2018) as its first smartphone of the new year. The new Nokia smartphone is the successor to the last year's Nokia 6 and is debuting in China. Details about its global rollout are yet to emerge. However, the smartphone is quite likely to go on sale in India following the initial availability in the Chinese market. China's Suning has started taking pre-orders for the Nokia 6 (2018), and its sale will begin starting January 10. The 32GB Nokia 6 (2018) variant will be available with a price tag of CNY 1,499 (roughly Rs. 14,600), whereas its 64GB variant will come at CNY 1,699 (approximately Rs. 16,600). Both the variants will come in Black and Silver colour options.

Unlike the original Nokia 6 model that was launched back in January last year with a front-
facing fingerprint scanner, the Nokia 6 (2018) features a fingerprint scanner on the back.
The new smartphone has also dropped the capacitive keys that were available on alongside
the frontal fingerprint scanner on the previous Nokia handset. The Finnish manufacturer has
apparently chosen on-screen navigation to make the interface of the new Nokia 6 closer to
stock Android UI. The decision is conspicuous as it has maintained a 16:9 display aspect
ratio, and not used a 18:9 aspect ratio that was the primary cause of other manufacturers
ditching front fingerprint scanners and hardware capacitive buttons. Further, the Nokia 6
(2018) has a metal unibody build that is made of 6000 series aluminium.

The dual-SIM (Nano) Nokia 6 (2018) runs Android 7.1.1 Nougat out of the box. The handset

LPDDR4 RAM. Also, the internal storage of the new Nokia 6 is upgradable via microSD c
ard slot (up to 128GB) in a hybrid dual-SIM configuration.
