Global variant of the Nokia 6 gets certified in Taiwan

Ivan, 14 February 2017

A global variant of the Nokia 6 has been certified in Taiwan, bearing the model number TA-1003 - the same model number that passed Bluetooth certification a few days ago.

The unit supports LTE, CDMA and GSM making it a true globetrotter, but otherwise bears the same specs - a 5.5" 1080p screen, 16MP camera, Snapdragon 430 chipset and an aluminum body.

The Nokia 6 has been a China-exclusive thus far and has been selling out instantaneously the moment stock was replenished.

We expect to see a global Nokia 6 at the Mobile World Congress 2017 alongside the Nokia 3, Nokia 5 and a resurrected Nokia 3310. HMD Global, Nokia's parent company, has already made its European debut with the Nokia 150 going on sale in the Netherlands.
