Nokia X6 design confirmed in new promotional poster
The Nokia X6 has appeared yet again, this time in a promotional poster that confirms its design once again. Despite previous rumors pointing towards an April 27 announcement, HMD Global finally confirmed that its first notch-equipped smartphone would be unveiled May 16. Now, with just 9 days to go, a Chinese retailer has revealed a promotional poster for the device that includes official renders.
The poster, which appears to have been created by the retailer, gives customers a pretty good look at the upcoming Nokia device. As can be seen in the renders, the Nokia X6 will boast a glass and aluminum build, as is becoming the norm in the industry, with the front panel perhaps being the differentiating design choice. After all, it boasts a tall 5.8-inch, 19;9 display that includes a small notch up top and a slight chin underneath. In addition, thin bezels on either side can also be spotted. Regarding the rear, however, the smartphone looks similar to a number of recent Nokia devices, with the company’s signature tube-like vertical camera setup and a circular fingerprint reader both being included. Specifications-wise, HMD Global is set to include Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 636 on the inside of the handset alongside a very respectable 6GB of RAM. Alternatively, the company is rumored to be preparing a 4GB of RAM model with a MediaTek P60 processor.
Suning, which is the retailer in question, is currently holding a photography competition that concludes on May 20. As part of the prizes, the 10 favorites will receive a new Nokia X6 unit, while a further three will receive a cash prize. It’s unclear why the retailer has chosen May 20 as the end date but, considering that smartphone is set to be unveiled just a few days prior, it’s possible that this could be the release date of HMD Global’s latest device in China.
