For those asking Nokia 4 won't happen.
Because Asians are afraid of number 4.

AnonD-92238, 15 Mar 2017If it's ~12k INR, I'm already soldSeriously bro i'm shocked to see your conversion rates nokia 6 is being sold for 1699 CNY (250$) i.e like 17k INR and you want more powerfully high specs for as less as 12k INR (190$), just out words to describe how delusional you are, next what SD 835 for 8k INR (120$). Come to your senses mate !

How on Earth can be a MIDRANGE 660 be faster than an FLAGSHIP 835 from the same company??????????? 835 will be faster than any SOC which uses A73 at this time...the leaked benchs from Geekbench 4 were AT 1.9GHz clock speed, which 31% slower than the 2.5GHz clock speed that will have( http://www.gsmarena.com/snapdragon_835_gets_benchmark_stats_at_geekbench-news-23247.php)...that means 835 will have about 2600 single core and 7800 multi core in reality...on the CPU side, 660 should be on par with 820/821, that means 660 should be about 30-35% slower than 835...on the GPU side the difference will be even bigger...820/821's GPU is 3-3.6x faster than 650/652/653's GPU

I feel nokia is too fast in mobile race. Being Slow and steady, nokia will win the race again.
And Nokia's naming scheme also needs to be considered. Instead nokia 5,6,7,8,9...People get confused if they name like that. And They should release less no of phone per year. eg: Nokia 1L, Nokia 1M, Nokia1H, Second version is Nokia 2L,2M,2H referring low/mid/high range phones.
Capturing market is the big deal nowadays. By releasing three good and sturdy phones every year or every six/eight months is reasonable.

AnonD-39937, 14 Mar 2017If Nokia 7 & 8 will still carry a midrange SOC like Sna... moreSD 660 is midrange in name only. Its cpu is probably faster than SD835 because of using A73 cores that are faster per clock than Kryo cores.
It will have worse GPU but still fast enough for the all the games in existence.
I welcome that they do not spare money for the useless SD835 ... SD660 is already faster than SD821 and it's probably very close to SD835 total performance despite thE drastically lower price.
SD 660 wold the chip for 2017. Realtively cheap, yet ultra powerful. I hope more would use it...

Also, if the Nokia 8 is really set to be the top phone of Nokia, then Nokia must equip it with SD835 or at least SD821 (I'm still confident in the optimization of software of Nokia) to conv

There should be a new series of Nokia phones instead of naming the new Nokia phones with numbers (the current Nokia 3, 5, 6). Revive the N-Series maybe. I expect a real successor to Nokia 808 PureView with nice solid design, stereo speakers on the bottom, 41 MP Camera with Xenon Flash + Dual Tone LED Flash, F1.7 Aperture, Mechanical Shutter, OIS, Carl Zeiss Lens, Dual Pixel AutoFocus + PDAF + Laser Autofocus Combined, Manual Camera Settings, 720p@120fps, 1080p@60fps, 4K@30fps video recording, Pureview Mode, Dedicated Triple Mics for lossless audio recording. Front camera should be equally good, I expect 12 MP Front Camera without Autofocus & Flash. Top end processor with 4 or 6 GB RAM, 64 GB ROM, 5.5 inch full HD or 4K AMOLED DISPLAY with CBD technology and Gorilla Glass 5, inbuilt reading mode and dark theme, Indestructible Build Quality, Dedicated Camera Shutter button, 5000 mAh removable battery, Dual OS - Android + The Next Symbian or MeeGo OS (possibly rebranded Sailfish OS), 4G + VoLTE, Dual SIM + Dedicated SD Card Slot, etc. I hope Nokia is cooking their own flavoured Android OS for their phones with advanced inbuilt functionalities like inbuilt double tap to unlock, Tap an icon in the status bar to lock the device, separate pages for the notification panel with one page dedicated to notifications and the other for toggles (Nokia can take cue from MIUI 8), Long Screenshot, Dual Space (One for personal use and other one for official use), Dual Apps (Option to replicate an app so you can have two apps of the same app), Pop Up Video, Multi Window, Fingerprint sensor with app lock and selfie shutter functionalities etc. Phew I'm so tired now.. But this isn't enough. I want the best user experience. Stock Android is too boring for me..

Nokia & thin bezels! never seen it before, Nokia has always been bezel friendly. But with the above specs and a nice looking phone I would definitely buy one.
