This is in line with HMD’s promise to keep its phones up to date and as close to stock Android as possible.

The Nokia 9 is expected to feature a 5.2-inch Quad HD display and up to 6GB RAM, although some rumours also suggest that the phone could come with 4GB RAM. The internal storage is being pegged at 64GB and 128GB, for the moment.
