HMD Global completes Android 10 rollout as Nokia 5.1 starts receiving update
Hours after revealing its official Android 11 roadmap for Nokia smartphones, HMD Global has completed its impressive Android 10 roadmap by rolling out the update to the mid-range Nokia 5.1.
The update introduces a range of features including Dark Mode and Smart Reply for messaging apps. Owners of the Nokia 5.1 can expect enhanced location and privacy tools as well.
To ensure a smooth rollout, HMD Global is dispatching the update in waves. The first one includes Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, India, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan.
Around 10% of users in these markets will receive the Android 10 update today and by Sunday, October 11, the number will have grown to 50%. The remaining group of users will receive it by Tuesday, October 13.
However, this timeline doesn’t apply to people in India. There, users of the Nokia 5.1 are on track to receive the update by October 29 at the latest.
