HMD Global, the Finnish company behind Nokia smartphones, has just announced it has expanded its partnership with Pixelworks, a major player in the visual display processing and advanced video delivery solutions industry.
The first product that benefited from the collaboration between the two companies, the Nokia 7.1 boasts an impressive PureDisplay screen that enhances the viewing experience. This is also the first smartphone that uses Pixelworks' last-gen Iris processor and Qualcomm's mid-tier Snapdragon 636 chipset to deliver exceptional visual performance on an LCD display.
The PureDisplay on the Nokia 7.1 embeds Pixelworks technology that sets the smartphone apart from other mid-range handsets. Thanks to superior HDR tone mapping that offer an enhanced viewing experience when watching HDR10 videos or pictures, as well as local contrast and sharpness enhancement, is safe to say that Nokia 7.1 is far from being just another average Android smartphone.

And since the next Nokia smartphones will be unveiled on February 24, we're anxious to see what the Finnish company has in store for us.
