Nokia X5 is expected to be launched on July 17 after the cancellation of the event; 5 reasons why it is always worth waiting?

We were extremely disappointed to learn that HMD Global had postponed indefinitely its July 11 launch, which was to be a launch pad for the Nokia X5. It is still unclear what was the reason for this cancellation because the only explanation given by Nokia was that it was due to some problems with the place. Nokia has taken to Weibo, a popular Chinese microblogging site, to apologize to its fans regarding this inconvenience. In addition, a new report was released stating that the launch event could possibly take place on July 17th. Nokia officials have not yet confirmed these dates because they would depend entirely on the weather conditions of Beijing at that time

to the fans

Few hours before the start of the launch event of the 11 July, Nokia published an article on Weibo letting fans know that the event had been canceled. To express its deepest apologies, Nokia has promised to send "a sweet heart" to the first 100 people who responded to this post before midnight. The company also mentioned that these stakeholders would receive watermelons with the heart. True to its word, Nokia personally responded to each of the first 100 people who responded to the post to tell them of a surprise that Nokia left them in their personal inbox.

You may be wondering exactly what … called "the sweetest heart" is. To be honest, we have no idea either. The raw translations of these comments that we have via Google Translate indicate that Nokia has sent private messages to its fans with these "sweetest hearts" and watermelons. Is it just images of watermelons or did Nokia actually send free coupons to its fans to buy melons this summer? We are not sure. Let us know in the comments if you have details about it.

5 reasons why Nokia X5 is still pending

Just because the launch of the upcoming device has been temporarily put on hold, there is no reason to forget it for the moment. With all the many leaks we have seen in recent months, we have a good idea of ​​what to expect from this phone and why it might still be interesting to wait for its release.

1. Price: A leaked press poster recently confirmed that the next Nokia smartphone would call the Nokia X5. The poster would also have revealed the price of this phone from 799 yuan in China, which translates to about Rs.8,200. Given the specifications that this phone should include, this pricing makes it a very attractive option compared to most of its competitors whose prices are similar.

2. Processor: A TENNA certification list was recently spotted for this upcoming device that says this phone could come with an octa-core 2.0 GHz processor. It was previously thought that it would act from a Snapdragon 636 chipset, but new reports emerged claiming that the SoC would be a MediaTek Helio P60. In both cases, the phone would be a respectable device capable of surpassing most of its competitors.

3. Camera: While the exact specifications are not yet known, we know that the Nokia X5 is likely to feature a dual camera configuration on the back with the primary lens measuring 13MP. On the front, there is a chance that the phone has a notch in its display where an 8MP selfie shooter will be housed. Admittedly, these figures may not seem astonishing, but these cameras will probably be more than adequate for this budget offer.

4. Stock Android: As is the case with all modern Nokia smartphones, the phone will offer Android 8.1 Oreo loaded by default. The best part is that there will be no bloatware or aberrations from the UI that the phone offers an Android stock experience.

5. Storage Options: Another interesting aspect of this phone is that it offers several storage options. The TENAA list reveals three variants of RAM measuring 3GB, 4GB and 6GB. These would be paired with 32GB or 64GB of internal storage space. In addition, the phone will allow a storage extension up to 128 GB with the use of a microSD card.
