New Nokia D1C Smartphone running on Android 7.0 shows up on Benchmarks site

Every day, we come across a bunch of smartphones in benchmarking websites. Not all of them are worth mentioning or taking a look at. But when you have something from a company which is trying to enter the smartphone market again, we certainly can’t ignore those. The company we are talking about here is none other than Nokia. Although this is not the first time that we are looking at a smartphone leak from Nokia in a long time, but this we time we have a couple of specs as well.

This is pretty much the first concrete info we have on the device till now. This smartphone is listed by the name of Nokia D1C and it looks like it is going to be a smartphone powered by Android. It is finally good to see a smartphone powered by Android after a long wait. Well, it is not a bummer that Nokia is making an entry into the smartphone market yet again. We previously reported about the same, where the company signed a strategic licensing agreement with Finland-based HMD Global for manufacturing Android powered Smartphones and Tablets under the brand name of Nokia.

Now keeping all that aside, let’s see what we are going to get here. As mentioned earlier, the smartphone is listed as Nokia D1C. It looks like it will be powered by the latest and greatest Android 7.0 Nougat out of the box. This is a good move since this is a comeback, they might as well put the best one out there. The device is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 processor which carries the model number MSM8937. This is an octa-core processor based on the ARM Cortex-A53 architecture and has a clock speed of 1.4 GHz.

The processor is also complemented by an Adreno 505 GPU for graphics rendering. In terms of RAM, we are looking at 3GB of memory, which should be enough to day-to-day activities. Well, that’s all the info which we have as of now regarding the device. We are still more confirmation on the specs like display size, battery capacity, camera details, etc. However, since the Snapdragon 430 is capable of supporting displays not more than FHD, we are expecting the device to come with only an FHD display and QuadHD. However, it is not confirmed yet and these are just initial set of speculations.

Previously it was reported that the company will be launching two new smartphones with 2K displays in China. It was reported that one will have a 5.2-inch display and the other will sport a 5.5-inch display. Both the smartphone were quite promising as far as the specs were concerned. But now we have these new set of config so it is quite unclear at this point on what to expect. We suggest you to wait for more info on this device, as we should be getting more info in coming months. Stay tuned for more info.
