HMD Global has sent out press invites for an event on October 11 in India where the company is expected to make an ‘important announcement’. The media invite doesn’t mention anything about a product launch event, but we expect the company to launch the Nokia 7.1 and the Nokia 7.1 Plus in India on the scheduled date, following their announcement at another event on October 4.
Renowned leakster, Roland Quandt, recently revealed some information about the upcoming Nokia 7.1, which is expected to feature 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage and will be priced at 399 Euro.
