Nokia 9.1 PureView will come with Snapdragon 855, 5G and a better camera

Nokia fans who were disappointed by the Nokia 9 PureView's camera performance and the fact that it sports an outdated flagship SoC will be happy to hear that the upcoming Nokia 9.1 PureView smartphone will right the wrongs of its predecessor. That is according to Nokiapoweruser's latest report on the upcoming second-gen flagship.

Initially, the Nokia 9.1 PureView was supposed to launch in Q3 2019 but HMD Global decided to work a little more on the camera capabilities of the handset to avoid the same mistakes it did with the previous generation.

Sources familiar with the matter say that Nokia is working closely with Light for the development and optimization of the camera module and the software.

The key selling points of the new camera are going to be the excellent nighttime performance and video recording capabilities.

Additionally, the handset will run on Qualcomm's latest platform - Snapdragon 855 supporting 5G connectivity. Design-wise, the handset will have a cutout for the front camera, like the Nokia X71. And since it's going out in Q4 this year, it will run on Android Q out of the box.
