After a very successful global launch in MWC, HMD has arrived in Malaysia, and brought with them the new Nokia range of Android-powered smartphone. The Nokia 3, 5, and 6 are coming to the Malaysian market by the end of the month, as well as the new Nokia 3310 feature phone.
Vijay Thangavelu, Country Manager (Malaysia and Myanmar), HMD Global said: “Today marks the beginning of an exciting new era for the Nokia smartphones as we reintroduce this much-loved and trusted brand to the Malaysian smartphone consumers, alongside the existing Nokia branded feature phones. HMD is committed to draw on the hallmarks of the Nokia phone heritage of quality, simplicity and reliability for an authentic and differentiating experience to appeal to the new generation of Nokia fans.”
The range starts with the Nokia 3, a lower-model in the new lineup. It features a quad-core processor, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of storage, a 5-inch HD screen behind Corning’s Gorilla Glass, with a 2650mAh battery and the pre-requisite connections one must have today – 4G LTE, NFC and Bluetooth. It has 8-megapixel cameras on the front and the rear, and is available in four distinct colours – Matte Black, Silver, Tempered Blue and Copper.
Next is the Nokia 5, which comes with a 5.2-inch laminated IPS HD screen with Gorilla Glass, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 430 processor, 2GB of RAM, 16GB of storage, 13-megapixel rear camera, 8-megapixel selfie unit, 4G LTE/NFC/WIFI/Bluetooth and a 3000mAh battery. The four colours for the Nokia 5 are Tempered Blue, Silver, Matte Black, and Copper.
The big brother of the lot is the Nokia 6, which features a 5.5-inch Full HD IPS display, 3GB of RAM, 32GB of storage, a 16-megapixel rear camera unit paired with an 8-megapixel selfie shooter, 4G LTE/NFC/WiFI/Bluetooth, and a 3000mAh battery. The Nokia 6 also comes in four standard colours – Tempered Blue, Silver, Matte Black, and Copper – with a limited edition Arte Black colour, which bumps the specs a bit (4GB RAM/64GB storage) coming soon in the near future.
Lastly, there is the Nokia 3310. A feature phone, the unit is inspired by the original Nokia 3310. It is now thinner and smaller than the original model, with new features such as a 2-megapixel rear camera and microUSB connectivity. It comes in four different colours – Warm Red and Yellow, both with a gloss finish, and Dark Blue and Grey both with a matte finish.

All of the Nokia phones listed here are available with dual SIM option, as well as FM Radio when a headset is connected through the 3.5mm audio jack.
