The iconic logo and tagline of Nokia is displayed along with the potential look of the upcoming Nokia Edge Android smartphone.

Nokia 6, Nokia 8, and Nokia P1 have been highly anticipated for their specs, price, and release date. In particular, the Nokia aims to replicate the flash sale success of Nokia 6 in the Philippine market, as the country would soon welcome the said device.

In preparation for the second flash sale for Nokia's latest Android release, the company has already reached an estimated 1.4 million registrations for Nokia 6. Such performance is no surprise, for the same thing happened during the first flash sale wherein the Nokia's latest Android phone was sold out under a minute.

The current success and high interest for Nokia phones in China will soon be tested as the company will bring the device to their neighbouring country, the Philippines. Nokia 6 will be sold in the said country with the price of PHP 18,590 which is about $370, according to GSM Arena. It will be sold by Philippine online retailer Lazada before the end of this week.

Apart from the highly talked about Nokia 6, two variants are still being speculated online. Interest for Nokia 8 and Nokia P1 have grown over the past weeks, especially with its rumored introduction on the upcoming Mobile World Congress.

In retrospect, Nokia 8 has been reported to have been accidentally revealed during the previous CES event weeks ago. However, Qualcomm immediately denied the incident concerning their alleged disclosure of the said Nokia flagship product.

"We do not disclose details of our reference design. We've seen a few stories rumouring what we demonstrated in our CES booth to be a Nokia device. Those reports are not accurate, our 835 demos were on our own reference design devices, which we use to demo our latest Snapdragon SOCs every year," PC Advisor quoted a Qualcomm spokesperson as saying. 

With respect to the Qualcomm's processor, it has also been reported that another Nokia product will be supported by Snapdragon 835. The same website highlighted that Nokia P1 will be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 835.

However, there are still no confirmation of the said report and the aforementioned speculations. What the Nokia has confirmed so far is their upcoming tradeshow in February that will showcase more Nokia Android devices.
