Two smartphones are presented in contrasting positions to showcase their external features.

Nokia phones specs, price, and release date continues to excite the curiosity of consumers worldwide. With its highly anticipated line-up, including Nokia Edge, Nokia D1C and the Nokia 150, the company is hoping for a major comeback.

After a major flop of its previous attempt to regain market dominance with its Windows OS smartphones, Nokia is now stepping up its latest offerings that are expected to arrive this year. For consumers interested only with basic features, call and text, the Nokia 150 would be a decent option.

According to the Finnish company, the said device is built to last and is expected to have a battery power similar to that of the Nokia 3310. Users may be able to appreciate a 22 hours talk time with Nokia 150 and 31 days standby, according to The Sun.

Apart from the said retro feature, it is also expected that the classic games like Snake and Nitro Racing will also be incorporated in some of the upcoming Nokia phones. This approach somehow suggests that Nokia is trying to reinvent their approach towards the current smartphone industry while keeping some known effective formula for success.

Moreover, other potential avenues through which Nokia is expected to dominate is the Android mobile industry. The former largest phone distributor hopes to regain global popularity and influence by introducing Android phones championed by the rumored Nokia Edge and D1C.

Although the company has been quite strict with the release of details concerning its upcoming devices, leaks still managed to surface online. The budget variant of Nokia D1C has been speculated to feature a Snapdragon 600 series processor, 4GB RAM and 64GB, according to The Android Soul.

On the other hand, another Android offering, Nokia Edge, will feature an expected Android 7.0 Nougat with 6GB RAM and would likely be bezel-less, as mentioned in a separate report. With a speculated powerful 23MP rear camera with Carl Zeis technology and octa-core processor, the said smartphone would be within $450-500 price point.

As of the moment, in terms of a release period for the said Nokia phones, only the Nokia 150 has been reported for release in the Q1 of this year. Further specs info and release period of the upcoming Nokia Android phones remains to be elusive.
