In the images, Nokia 2 was shown featuring a single camera on the rear alongside the LED flash and volume controller and power button on the right side. The Nokia 9, placed alongside, was seen sporting dual rear camera with LED flash, a fingerprint reader on the rear and volume controller and power button on the right side, similar to the Nokia 2.
Rumours also say that the Nokia 2 will feature a 5-inch HD display, will be powered Snapdragon 212 SoC coupled with 1GB RAM, an 8MP rear and a 5MP front sensor. It is also expected to pack a 4000mAh battery and runs on Android 7.1 Nougat out of the box.
To date, Nokia 3 is the affordable of all Android-powered Nokia smartphones released this year. The Nokia 2 is speculated to be cheaper than it too.
