LONDON, UK, 20th June 2019 – HMD Global, the home of Nokia phones, today announces the Nokia 3.2 is now available to buy from Amazon, John Lewis Partnership, Argos and AO for £129.99.
The Nokia 3.2 combines the biggest HD+ display with our signature two-day battery life and is powered by the latest Android 9 Pie experience.
Sarah Edge, UK & Ireland General Manager HMD Global:
“Owning an affordable smartphone shouldn’t lock you out of exciting features and the latest trends. Nokia phones are innovative, long-lasting and boast premium craftmanship. But we go one step further to give our fans the chance to own a device that just keeps getting better over time.”
“We know how important a great display and two-day battery life is to many smartphone users, so we made sure we delivered on these qualities for the Nokia 3.2. But we didn’t just stop there. We have put everything you expect from the latest smartphone into an affordable package. From biometric face unlock and AI-powered features to a more modern and personal way to interact with your smartphone through the dedicated Google Assistant button, you won’t be held back by the Nokia 3.2.”
Industry-leading display, better performance and two-day battery
Taking a holistic view of battery life, Nokia 3.2 combines a larger battery than many premium smartphones with efficient hardware and software ingenuity. To squeeze every last drop out of the huge battery, the Adaptive Battery feature introduced in Android 9 Pie manages background applications using AI, learning from user behaviour to know when to throttle or increase power to specific apps or processes. It even has enough power to go two days with the largest display we’ve ever put in a smartphone. The Nokia 3.2 features an impressive 6.26” HD+ display so you’ll never struggle and strain to see more of your favourite movies, TV shows and streams.
Powered by the Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 429 mobile platform and available with up to 3/32GB memory configuration, the Nokia 3.2 will get through tasks with ease and it is also among the first Nokia smartphones to include a notification light – the power button comes to life to alert you of notifications, so you know when to unlock your phone and check your apps.
Personalised experience: learns as you use
Premiering the Google Assistant button, the Nokia 3.2 will revolutionise the way you interact with your smartphone. Simply press once for instant access to the Google Assistant to get directions, make calls, listen to music and get answers to your questions faster than ever before. You can double press to receive a visual overview of your day from the Assistant with intelligent suggestions and personalised information, including transport info, bills that need paying and what you have in your calendar to make sure you never miss a meeting again. By long pressing the button, you will activate a walkie-talkie mode, which lets the Google Assistant listen to you until you release it for long sentence queries.
Many of the premium features on the Nokia 3.2 are powered by AI, including face unlock to give you a quick, handsfree way to unlock your smartphone or exclusive Google Assistant actions to open apps quicker, including launching the camera app. The Nokia 3.2 also lets you access your Google Assistant without unlocking your phone, after opting-in through your settings, you’ll be able to perform basic tasks like setting a timer, scheduling reminders, playing music or asking it questions.
Pure, secure, and up-to-date, Android™ 9 Pie reinforced with Android One
The Nokia 3.2 launches with Android 9 Pie out of the box. It joins the comprehensive line-up of Nokia smartphones in the Android One family, which means it delivers the latest Android innovations and software experiences. Nokia smartphones with Android One offer great storage and battery life right out of the box and come with three years of monthly security patches and two major OS updates.
“Nokia phones running on Android 9 Pie, including the Nokia 3.2 give fans access to intelligent experiences such as Adaptive Battery that limits battery usage from apps you don’t use often and App Actions which predicts what you’re about to do, meaning your phone understands you the more you use it and your smartphone experience gets better with time” adds Sarah Edge.
The Nokia 3.2 will receive three years of monthly security patches and two major OS updates, as guaranteed in the Android One program. In addition, Google Play Protect scans over 50 billion apps per day to keep your phone safe from malware, making the Nokia 3.2 among the most secure phones on the market. It also comes with easy access to helpful innovative services including the Google Assistant, which helps you get things done throughout the day, as well as Google Photos[i] with free unlimited high-quality photo storage. The Nokia 3.2 3GB/32GB variant is great for professionals as it is validated by the Android Enterprise Recommended program and comes with a fingerprint sensor at the back of the device for secure access.
