Unreleased Nokia Device Making The Rounds Is Actually A Tablet

Over the past few weeks, an unknown Nokia device has been making the rounds online. Simply known as the Nokia D1C, it was believed that this device was an Android-powered handset from Nokia but that doesn’t appear to be the case. Its latest appearance on GFXBench benchmark reveals that the Nokia D1C is not a smartphone but actually a tablet.

The benchmark results show that the Nokia D1C has a 13.8 inch full HD display. Now that’s not the kind of display size you’d expect on a smartphone so this is definitely looking more like a tablet with every passing second.

Additional specs revealed by the benchmark listing include a Snapdragon 430 processor with 3GB RAM and 16GB of onboard memory. A 16 megapixel rear and 8 megapixel front camera are mentioned as well, aside from Android 7.0 Nougat.

One Android-powered tablet has already been released under the Nokia brand and now it appears that another is in the pipeline. It’s not known at this point in time when the Nokia D1C is going to be announced, what it will be called, how much it will cost and which markets it will be available in.

Nokia will eventually return to the smartphone market as well. A couple of handsets are currently in the pipeline and they may be launched either by the end of this year or by early next year.
