HMD Global, the company that has the rights for the Nokia brand, made a miracle of it in the past years. They released a bunch of great smartphones for every different budget. The best thing about them is that they come with excellent hardware for the price and a stock version of Android. Updates up until now have been timely, and the company has no intent of stopping that. In fact, all of their new devices will be released under the Android One program. That guarantees two years of OS upgrades and three years of security updates. And now, we have the next versions of their budget smartphones. Meet the Nokia 2.1, Nokia 3.1 and Nokia 5.1!

Nokia 2.1

Starting with the smallest one, the Nokia 2.1 is one of the newest smartphones under the Nokia family. And it is the one that got most of the updates, while keeping the same price at $115. The display has been increased up to 5.5” with 720p resolution. To use up the space, the device is getting dual stereo speakers on the front. The back is made from polycarbonate, a material commonly found on budget devices. On the inside, you’re getting the Snapdragon 425, 1GB of RAM and 8GB of storage. The cameras are mostly the same – 8MP on the back, 5MP on the front. And so is the battery – you’re still getting the massive 4000mAh one, that will easily last you through two full days of use. Inside, the device is running Android Oreo (Go edition). The Nokia 2.1 will be available in three different color schemes in July.
