The Nokia 3.1 features an anodised machined metal frame and sculpted glass display matched with dual diamond cuts for a premium finish.

The Nokia 3.1 runs MediaTek 6750, an octa-core chipset, offering twice the processor cores and a 50% performance boost on the previous generation. It also features an upgraded 13MP auto-focus rear camera and a wide-angle front camera.
Nokia 3.1 is entering the Android One family, offering more storage and battery life out of the box, as well as the latest AI-powered innovations from Google. Nokia 3.1 will receive three years of monthly security patches and two years of OS updates, as guaranteed in the Android One programme.
