Nokia Launches New Line of Phones in Cebu
Nokia launches 4 new phones for Cebuanos to enjoy as they showcase the Nokia 7 plus, Nokia 1, New Nokia 6, and the Nokia 8110 on April 23, 2018 at Harold’s Hotel, Cebu City.
The phones, which were first introduced at the Mobile World Congress in February earlier this year, will be available in Cebu on May 2018. As a follow through on Nokia’s reputation on having phones that are “built like a tank” or phones that “break cement when it falls off”, they once again built the new line of phones with durability and reliability in mind as Nokia delivers on their promise to bring quality smartphones for the Cebu market.
Pure, secure, and up-to-date Android experience
With a commitment to a pure, secure, and up-to-date Android, each smartphone will stay fresh over time with monthly security updates guaranteed and with no unnecessary UI changes or hidden processes eating up battery life or slowing the device down. All these mean you can enjoy your new phone for longer. (Nokia)
Here are the new Nokia smartphones:
Nokia 7 Plus
“The flagship hero you can rely on”
Designed to help users create stunning content, the Nokia 7 plus has the screen, power, design, and features that make it a true hero of the Nokia smartphone range. Combining innovative optical hardware and imaging algorithms, the Nokia 7 plus captures moments in photos that are true to life. With its impressive 16MP front-facing camera with ZEISS optics, the Nokia 7 plus adapts to low-light conditions by increasing light sensitivity to guarantee only the best pictures to preserve perfect moments. Enhanced Dual-Sight harnesses the front and back cameras simultaneously to capture the ultimate #Bothie while unlimited photo and video uploads to Google Photos ensure all memories are stored for easy sharing with family and friends.
To enable you to capture and enjoy more content for longer, the Nokia 7 plus is backed by the powerful Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 660 Mobile Platform. Its large-capacity 3800mAh battery makes sure you won’t have to worry about battery life, even when you are broadcasting your #Bothie videos live on Facebook or YouTube.
Its gently curved back and slim edges provide a big-screen experience in a comfortable, neat package. The vivid 6-inch 18:9 full-HD+ display makes the Nokia 7 plus perfect for browsing, social media consumption, gaming and entertainment with more content in the same width as a traditional 5.5-inch display device.
The Nokia 7 plus will be available in Black/Copper and White/Copper from April 27 and will retail for PHP 21,990.

The new Nokia 6 takes the original’s precision craftsmanship to the next level by combining a unibody, made from a solid block of 6000 series aluminium, with an 11-hour two-tone anodising and polishing process, and by uniting a sculpted 2.5D display with damage-resistant Corning® Gorilla® Glass, the New Nokia 6’s compact and refined body is built to last. It runs in Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 630 Mobile Platform to deliver a fast and smooth performance alongside great day-long battery life.

“A 4G smartphone for every Juan”
The Nokia 1 is a breakthrough in accessible technology, delivering smartphone essentials with the reassuring quality that can be expected of a Nokia phone and a refreshingly familiar design to fans around the world. Giving more people access to technology, the phone comes with Android Oreo™ (Go edition), a version of Android optimized for devices with 1GB RAM or less.
