There is a triple camera setup on the back with a 50-megapixel primary snapper, a 2-megapixel macro lens, and a 2-megapixel depth sensor. On the front, housed in the waterdrop notch, is an 8-megapixel selfie snapper. The fingerprint sensor is side-mounted and there is also a dedicated Google Assistant button.
It packs a 5,050mAh battery with 18W fast charging support but a standard 10W charger will be provided in the box. Nokia says that this device can last for up to 3 days on a single charge.
