Nokia 9 and X7 leaked front panels reveal notch-less displays

14 September 2018
Expect impressive screen-to-body ratio on the Nokia 9.

Sort by:

Looking forward to the 9!
I really hope there is 'no curved front sides' and that the back is not smooth glass . . anything else to help thwart grease marks like a matt finish or just metal would be great.

Attention to detail wins the race.

    Is that an on screen fingerprint sensor that I'm seeing on the Nokia 9 screen? Very nice.

      Oh yeah no notches!!! That's what I like!!!

        schlip, 14 Sep 2018Well, the LG display isn't horrible for starters, as the se... moreTo be fair, I wouldn't call LG second best.
        I've seen their oleds and they're gorgeous!
        Imo they're somewhat on par with Samsung but the latter has more advertising/acceptance.

        Also, Samsung's amoled screens for their A and J line aren't as good as the S line. So it's a matter of the tier of the display.

        It's my subjective opinion though, as objective tests show otherwise, but still, LG's isn't that bad to be second place... maybe 1.5?

            Lccy, 14 Sep 2018That looks like curved edges on the Nokia 9 front panel :( ... moreNotches and curves are a bit annoying.
            Thing is, they made the notch hidden with software, but I haven't seen any software fix where you could disable the edge (at least when viewing photos) so I get what you mean.

            I could live with notches and curved edges as long as I get to modify their behavior

              Lccy, 14 Sep 2018That looks like curved edges on the Nokia 9 front panel :( ... moreTo be honest, I feel like the curved edge doesn't really take away a lot from the experience, but it makes using the phone feel more immersive, and also swiping from the side is a lot smoother.

                That looks like curved edges on the Nokia 9 front panel :(

                I wish manufacturers wouldn't all follow the stupid trend of curved edge displays, I had the distortion and that's the only thing stopping me from buying the Samsung's

                  Yes for the no notch movement!

                    Second, the only chip Nokia can use is the SD845, as the 855 hasn't come out yet. There is no other choice, and all flagships now besides Apple, Samsung, and Huawei use it. If this comes out at the same time as the OnePlus 6T, then will you be saying that chip is too old?
                    And if you're bored by stock Android, then Nokia is the completely wrong brand you're looking at. The rest of us appreciate the cleanliness and ease of use. If you want a bloated software experience, go out and get a Huawei or Samsung phone.

                              Same way, you should refer to Nokia as Nokia and not HMD Global. I hope my point is crystal clear.

                                  Nice modern design without stupid trendy features like the notch. Definitely seems good. Hopefully it will have a 3.5mm jack as well.

                                    These phones have close to nothing with Nokia to do.

                                      When this comes out it will come with almost a year old chip, horrible LG display and boring stock Android. Yuck. No thanks.

                                        So long as you include headphone jack and microsd slot as STANDARD we will be fine.
