Nokia 6 finally hits the shelves in the UK, costs less than expected

After months of waiting, customers in the UK can finally purchase HMD's most advanced smartphone to date, the Nokia 6. The device was initially slated for a June release, but because HMD was unable to cope with the high demand for the smartphone, availability in many countries was postponed for a few months.

Nokia 6 is exclusively available in the UK via Carphone Warehouse. The good news is the smartphone costs less than it was originally announced. Back in April, HMD announced the Nokia 6 would be up for purchase for £229.99 in the UK, but Carphone Warehouse is selling it for just £199.99.

Moreover, customers can get it for free or for much less if they sign up for new contracts with local carriers. Nokia 6 comes in three color options: Blue, Silver, and Black. A fourth color, Copper, is not available for purchase yet.

In related news, Nokia 6 will remain the most powerful Android smartphone launched by HMD for just a little longer, as the Finnish company confirmed a launch event for August 16 where we believe a more advanced handset, the Nokia 8, will be revealed.
