It has a 5.71-inch LCD display with 720 x 1520 HD+ resolution and a small waterdrop cutout at the top. Embedded in the notch is a 5MP selfie camera.

Nokia 2.2 is powered by a quad-core Helio A22 chipset from MediaTek, clubbed with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. Since the phone includes a dedicated microSD card slot, you can easily expand the storage further by up to 256GB. The Android One smartphone comes with a single 13MP camera on the back along with 1080p video recording. Some of the other key highlights of the affordable handset include a 3000mAh battery and a dedicated Google Assistant button.
The phone runs on the Android 9.0 Pie operating system currently and is expected to be among the first budget devices to receive the Android Q update. In fact, the Nokia 2.2 will receive two years of major OS updates and continue to receive security patches for up to three years.
