As per tradition, Nokia has showcased multiple smartphones at the MWC 2019. We already talked about the long-awaited high-end Nokia 9 PureView phone, so in this news article, we will be taking a look at the Nokia 1 Plus, Nokia 3.2, Nokia 4.2 and the Nokia 210.

Let's start with the Nokia 4.2, it features an entry-level Qualcomm Snapdragon 429 chipset, a 13MP + 2MP dual rear camera, 3000mAh battery, runs on Android Pie out of the box, a 5.71-inch display, a rather small 2GB/3GB + 16GB/32GB memory capacity (with microSD support) and more. While it seems like there's nothing much to look at, Nokia installed a Google Assistant button which allows the user to get instant access to Google Assistant. If you double press it, you will receive a visual snapshot of your day from Google Assistant with intelligent suggestions and personalised information, a long press of the button will activate a walkie-talkie mode, which lets the Google Assistant listen to you until you release it for long sentence queries.

The dedicated Google Assistant button is also available on the Nokia 3.2, which is also another entry-level phone using the same processor and memory capacity but comes with a bigger 6.26-inch HD+ display, a single 13MP rear camera, a 4000mAh battery and more. On the other hand, the Nokia 1 Plus' tech specs are even lower, using a quad-core MediaTek processor, 1GB + 16GB (with microSD support), 2500mAh battery, an 8MP rear camera and its 5.45-inch display is only FWVGA resolution.

Finally, the most affordable one of the bunch is the Nokia 210. It's able to access the internet with an Opera Mini web browser and even has a Facebook Lite app version. Along with classic games like Snake, it's almost a miracle that it can install Asphalt 6, N.O.V.A. 3 and others too.

Since all these phones are entry-level tiers, you can also expect the price to be quite low. Here are the official price tags below:

  • Nokia 3.2 - starting from $139 (~RM565)
  • Nokia 1 Plus - $99 (~RM402)
