HMD Global makes a strong 5G debut
HMD Global finally debuts its first 5G phone with the Nokia 8.3 5G. Unlike other 5G phones, HMD Global claims that the Nokia 8.3 5G is a future-proof, global-ready 5G phone that covers all 12 5G frequencies around the world. Powering it is a Snapdragon 765G processor paired with 6GB/8GB RAM and 64GB/128GB of expandable storage, along with a 4500mAh battery with 18w charging.
The ultra-wide-angle camera has unique tricks: it has a native 16:9 aspect, pixel binning tech that results in 2.8um pixels, and action cam mode for capturing smooth footage at 60FPS. The Nokia 8.3 5G has ZEISS Cinema Capture features that include options to shoot in 21:9 cinematic mode and anamorphic and blue flare effects.
