It is also rumored to have an internal memory of 2GB and a 12-megapixel camera. While Nokia sells at €249, Nokia 5 is said to cost just €199.
The specifications of Nokia 3 have also yet to be revealed, but it is expected to be less powerful compared with the other two handsets. This handset will allegedly be sold at €149 upon its launch.
What creates the biggest buzz about Nokia's comeback is the launch of the revamped version of Nokia 3310, which will be sold at €59. Mobile enthusiasts are all excited for the modern version of this classic workhorse, which is best known for its long battery life and durability.
