Nokia 9 2 Pureview Reportedly Delayed Until Late 2020

HMD Global was expected to unveil the Nokia 9.2 PureView smartphone later this year, but the launch has reportedly been delayed significantly because the company has decided to upgrade its specs to incorporate the latest hardware in its next-gen flagship. According to Russia-based tipster, Nokia Anew (@nokia_anew), the device is now expected to be launched this fall with the Snapdragon 865 instead of the Snapdragon 855 or 855+ that was originally expected to power the device.

Meanwhile, the new chipset powering the Nokia 9.2 PureView makes a lot of sense, given that it comes with a number of upgrades over its predecessor, including support for 144Hz displays and 8K video recordings. What’s more, it will only ship with the Snapdragon X55 5G modem, which means that all possible variants of the next-gen PureView will come with 5G connectivity.
