HMD Global, the makers of Nokia phones, have announced the availability of the Nokia 1 in Nigeria through accredited smartphones dealers. It is Nokia’s first phone based on Google’s new Android Oreo (Go Edition) platform.
Tailored to devices with 1GB RAM or less, Android Oreo™ (Go edition) comes with a new range of apps from Google designed to run faster while consuming fewer data.
YouTube Go, for example, allows downloading videos for watching later when offline and it does not play videos with a higher resolution than 480p to consume less data. Gmail Go is another app that saves precious megabytes – it also allows for offline reading and uses less RAM. The Play Store is also optimized to show you a lite version of other apps.
Google’s in-house keyboard Gboard Go is built in the Nokia 1. It lacks GIF search, stickers, and one-handed mode, but uses half of the phone’s memory. Google Assistant also has a Go version that allows for making phone calls, sending messages, playing music, and checking the weather.
With fewer pre-installed and much lighter apps on Android Oreo™ (Go edition), you get 2x more available storage out of the box compared with Android Nougat. Android Oreo™ (Go edition) offers a smooth and responsive experience while making sure your device gets the latest security updates and features, including Google Play Protect, which continuously works to keep your device, data, and apps safe.
Specs-wise, Nokia 1 is pretty basic – it has a 4.5″ screen with a resolution of 480 x 854 pixels and a MediaTek MT6737M chipset with a quad-core CPU at 1.1 GHz.
The camera on the back is 5 MP, coupled with LED flash, while you have a 2 MP front camera for selfies and video chats. Internal storage is 8 GB and is expandable up to 128 GB more through a microSD slot. The Nokia 1 is powered by a 2,150 mAh removable battery that charges via micro USB.
With support for 4G connectivity, FM Radio, and dual SIM, the Nokia 1 elevates everything you love about feature phones in an accessible smartphone package.
The Nokia Android smartphone comes with no bloatware, skins, UI changes, or unnecessary pre-loaded apps onto your phone, giving you a pure Android experience.
