The technology world continues to march on and today HMD Global announced a slew of new phones. The headliner is the Nokia 8.3 5G, the company’s first 5G phone. It also announced the Nokia 5.3 and the budget Nokia 1.3 (also the Nokia 5310 feature phone if you’re into that sort of thing). Let’s take a look at these latest Nokia devices.
Nokia 8.3 5G
HMD Global is a little late to the 5G game, but that’s not a bad thing. The company says waiting has allowed it to support a wide range of 5G bands from the start. It’s calling the Nokia 8.3 5G the “first truly global 5G smartphone,” which means it should eventually support 5G roaming across more countries.
5G aside, the other big thing that HMD is touting is the cameras. The Nokia 8.3 5G has four cameras arranged in a circular array centered on the back. The main shooter is 64MP, while the others are a 12MP wide-angle, 2MP macro, and 2MP depth sensor. There is also a 24MP selfie camera on the front in a hole-punch.
HMD talked a lot about the video capabilities of the cameras, especially the wide-angle camera. It can shoot video in 4K and in 21:9 aspect ratio. The Nokia 8.3 5G can shoot video in log format (similar to shooting RAW photos), which is great for people who like to edit videos after the fact.
The Nokia 8.3 5G has a 6.81-inch FHD+ display and they’ve included an Iris display chip from Pixelworks. The “PureDisplay” has always-on HDR, enhanced picture quality, the ability to adjust brightness for ambient light, and “absolute color accuracy.”
Other specifications include the Snapdragon 765G SoC, 6/8GB of RAM, 64/128GB of storage, and a 4,500mAh battery. It has USB-C for charging, a headphone jack, a fingerprint scanner built into the power button, and NFC. It will ship with Android 10.

The Nokia 5.3 is a mid-range device and a follow-up to the Nokia 5.1. HMD has bumped it up from a single camera to a whopping four cameras: 13MP, 5MP wide-angle, 2MP macro, and 2MP depth sensor. That’s a lot of cameras for a phone in this category. There is an 8MP camera on the front in a waterdrop notch.
Some of the other specifications found in the Nokia 5.3 include a 6.55-inch HD+ display, Snapdragon 665 SoC, 3/4/6GB of RAM, 64/128GB of storage, and a 4,000mAh battery. It has USB-C for charging, a headphone jack, rear fingerprint scanner, and NFC. It will ship with Android 10.

Nokia 1.3
Lastly, the company announced the budget-friendly Nokia 1.3. This device has a 5.71-inch display, the Snapdragon 250 SoC, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of storage, and a removable 3,000mAh battery. As you can tell from the specifications, this is an extremely low-end device. I can’t remember the last time I saw a phone with only 1GB of RAM.
The Nokia 1.3 has a single 8MP camera on the back and a 5MP camera up front. The one interesting thing about this device is the inclusion of Google’s new “Camera Go” app. This means the Nokia 1.3 can take advantage of Google’s photography algorithms and features like Portrait Mode. It applies the depth-of-field effect only using software and suggests ways to clear up space when storage is low.
Other specifications include microUSB for charging, a headphone jack, Google Assistant button, and no NFC. The Nokia 1.3 runs Android 10 Go Edition and HMD Global’s Juho Sarvikas says it will get Android 11 Go and Android 12 Go.
