Last year, Finnish smartphone maker Nokia has introduced the Nokia 1 in association to Google’s Android Go program. Now, a new leak has appeared online, hinting at the successor of Nokia 1. This leak also revealed the specs of the upcoming Nokia 1 Plus and suggested that this smartphone may be announced at MWC 2019.

According to the leak, the upcoming Nokia 1 Plus will be powered by MediaTek 6739WW chipset clocked at 1.5 GHz with a PowerVR GE8100 GPU, paired with 1GB RAM and 8GB storage. This isn’t a big upgrade from Nokia as the predecessor Nokia 1 also runs a MediaTek 6737 chip with same RAM and storage capacities.
The render hints that Nokia’s upcoming device will have a single front-facing camera and will sport thick bezels. On the software side, the Nokia 1 Plus will reportedly run Android Pie out-of-the-box, however, it is not known whether it will be the Go edition which is designed to run on entry-level smartphones.
Connectivity features of the Nokia 1 Plus will include dual SIM (Nano), GPS, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth, alongside a Micro-USB port. Coming to the sensors, it is likely to be same as the predecessor Nokia 1.
Besides this information, the pricing, availability details of the upcoming Nokia 1 Plus yet to be revealed by the company.
