Nokia 1 , the company’s first Android Go phone was announced during the Mobile World Congress Event held in Barcelona earlier this year. Now the device is launched in India at Rs 5,499 with Rs 2,200 cashback offer from Reliance Jio. Only yesterday, we saw Lava Z50 Android Go phone launched along with cashback offer from Airtel. So already the competition heats up on Android Go (Oreo running) budget smartphones.
To recall, Android Go phones run light version of Android Oreo which is designed to work with devices even with 1GB or less RAM. Another advantage is that Nokia 1 is also part of Android One program, thereby making it easier to get regular updates. Now let’s check out the specifications of the Phone.
