Nokia Come-Back 2016: Nokia P1 Carries 3GB RAM, HD Display Rebranded Sharp Aquos P1? 5G Investment To Come Soon

A Nokia-branded handset presumed as Nokia P1 render leaked revealing that it is being designed by engineers at InFocus and Sharp, a Foxconn subsidiary. Nokia previously announced that it will get back into the mobile business to set focus on Android devices. The Finland-based company will license its brand to its Asian partners, which will then create Nokia handsets.

The Nokia P1 handset looked like a Sharp Aquos P1, which saw a limited distribution following release. The Nokia P1 device might be the first handset coming out of Nokia's new partnership, though no official statement has been released about the matter yet, Phone Arena reported.

Nokia leased its name to Foxconn, which was announced earlier this year, in its bid to return to smartphone production. Foxconn also purchased Sharp a few months ago, which may give an explanation as to why the image could be the same as the Sharp Aquos 1, BGR reported.

Nokia mobile reportedly could share the same set of specs with that of Sharp Aquos 1 such as a full HD display, 3GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage, and microSD support, should the Nokia P1 proves to be a rebranded Sharp handset. Nokia's deal with Microsoft is said to be the case why the Finnish company could not release a new phone using the Nokia brand; at least not until the third quarter of the present year.

iPhones recently became the standard resemblance of smartphones, which made all phones fairly similar. However, this reportedly do not mean that Nokia phones are not as important, especially that experts are branding the device market Justas an industry in the midst of bigger and tighter competition.

Nokia's current CEO, during the Mobile World Congress in February, said that they are planning to dramatically increase their investment in 5G this year and unleash the power of their massive innovation engine.
