Nokia is expected to update the much-loved Nokia 7 Plus and 6.1 next. It will also bring the updates to Nokia 2.2, Nokia 3.1 Plus, Nokia 3.2, and Nokia 4.2 in early Q1 2020.
Nokia has been really good with sticking to its Android 10 update roadmap. Updates have generally hit phones when Nokia says they would, and there have been few reports of widespread bugs.
On to the next round, as they say.
Noble successor
The Nokia 6.2 slims down the 6.1 Plus' notch and slaps on an additional camera. Its design is also much improved, making for a better overall package.
