Design and Display

Avoiding the notch, Nokia 9 PureView glows in a minimal bezel-less design that speaks volumes. Although given the attention notches have received, HMD Global’s Nokia brand might score less when compared to other flagship phones like Xiaomi Mi 9, Galaxy S10 and iPhone XS Max.

The classy 6000-series aluminum frame of the phone is covered by Corning Gorilla Glass 5 at its rear and the front. Its back glass leaves room for the Wireless Charging module while the rear glass commands protection on the 5.99-inch P-OLED display.

An optical fingerprint sensor is the top security option on the Nokia 9 PureView. This sensor can be accessed once you place your hands on the lower third of the phone’s display.

In an adorable fashion, five cameras are arranged at the back of this device. But as adorable as it is, it triggers trypophobia (the fear of holes) according to research. Either way, the cameras are as good as they come. More on that later.

Battery and Camera

Feeding the power demands of the Nokia 9 PureView is the non-removable 3,320mAh battery. It provides sufficient energy to get you through most of the day’s actions. And even when it gets low, it charges really fast due to Quick Charge 3.0. Also, it has Wireless Charging enablement.

Now, to its photography section, the top bezel houses a 20MP sensor that produces crisp selfies for your Instagram and Facebook gusto. The remarkable aspect of this department is where five 12-megapixel cameras are arranged majestically behind the phone.

Interestingly, these sensors capture images together and not separately. Thus, the quality of photographs produced contains more data than regular shooters.

Added to this, the phone executes images in JPEG and RAW DNG format (a more detailed image file). AR and VR applications are more efficient thanks to the ToF Infrared sensor beside these cameras.

Hardware and Software

Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 works at the heart of the device to deliver seamless operations. Its octa-core 2.8GHz Kryo CPU is accompanied by a sterling 6GB RAM. The absence of a MicroSD card doesn’t make much difference as 128GB ROM is in charge of storage. Lastly, the pure form of Android 9.0 Pie, that is, Android One is what takes care of the software roles.

Nokia 9 PureView Pricing and Availability
