HMD Nokia Android Announcement

HMD Global just introduced its most affordable Android One smartphone - the Nokia 2.2. The new device aims to tick all the core smartphone check-boxes at the impressively low INR 6,999 ($100/€90) price.

The phone features a decently sized display alongside a rounded polycarbonate design and near stock Android One software with promised support for the upcoming Android Q.

The Nokia 2.2 comes with a 5.7-inch IPS panel with HD+ resolution and a waterdrop notch for the 5MP selfie cam. Around the back, we have a single 13MP shooter with an LED flash. In the absence of a fingerprint reader, you’ll have to rely on the face unlock feature for you biometric security.

The phone is powered by the Helio A22 chipset with a quad-core CPU and either 2GB or 3GB RAM. Storage comes in 16GB 32GB and can be expanded via the microSD slot. The battery has a decent 3,000 mAh capacity, but charges over microUSB.

Software wise we’re in familiar territory for HMD devices part of the Android One program - it runs near stock Android Pie. The Nokia 2.2 is assured of at least three years of software updates meaning it will see Android Q and the version after that at the very minimum. This alone helps it stand out in the sea of entry-level devices from other manufacturers which are notoriously lacking in the software support department. There's also a dedicated Google Assistant button on the left-hand side.
