Nokia 7.2 lands in the US on September 30, up for pre-order now

[Shawn Knight]

Why it matters: The 7.2 is the first Nokia smartphone to feature a rear-facing triple camera system comprised of a 48-megapixel primary shooter with Quad Pixel technology, a 5-megapixel depth sensor and an 8-megpaixel ultra-wide lens with an 118-degree field of view and f/2.2 aperture, all of which sport Zeiss optics.

HMD Global at IFA 2019 in Berlin earlier this month announced two mid-segment smartphones, the Nokia 6.2 and Nokia 7.2, the latter of which is now available to pre-order in the US.

Quad Pixel technology combines four pixels into one to create what Nokia calls “stunning images in all conditions.”

The front-facing shooter is a 20-megapixel part with f/2.0 lens that’s capable of recording 1080p at up to 30 frames per second.

Elsewhere, you’ll find a 6.3-inch FHD+ screen with PureDisplay technology and always-on HDR that’s powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 660 octa-core SoC, 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage that’s expandable via microSD card slot. The screen is coated in 2.5D Corning Gorilla Glass so scratching should be reduced to a minimum.

The handset ships with Android 9 Pie although Nokia said it is Android 10 ready and will receive guaranteed monthly security updates for three years and OS updates for two years.

The Nokia 7.2 is available to pre-order from today from Amazon and B&H Photo. It drops on September 30 priced at $349.

I bet you it does, I've kept my old Lumia Icon just because of the amazing camera

I hope the best for them but pre-ordering anything these days just doesn't sit right with me. Let's see it show up and perform to all it's claims first, then after the big rush I'll wait for the first sales!

Just 2 years of updates? That’s a joke.

Same here. people don't believe me but my last phone was a Lumia and I actually really liked it.

The outdated SoC is a bit of a letdown. The image processing time on this phone is about as slow as the Pixel 3a XL, (which has SD 670), taking a few seconds before an image pops into the camera roll.

If I wanted a great digital camera.I'll go buy a great digital camera.I want a great phone.with out the android spyware.no windows version.no thanks.

I would like to thank everyone who helped windows mobile fail. You can enjoy your android spyware or your apple proprietary ware.and pricing.over 2000.00 dollars for iPhone 11 pro max 512 here.wow.
I should get one just so I can brag/biotch.like certain other folks.

I'll keep flogging my idol 4s with Windows as long as I keep getting updates.pffft.
OS updates for 2years [joke] that's the life of a phone plan here.no just NO!

I had the Lumia 830 . But the thing started random rebooting even after a reset.hardware failed.

still love windows phone though.it just works and syncs.effortlessly.with my windows computer.that was a no brainer for me.
if your using a mac I guess the iPhone is the way to go.but android.[ shakes head].

Gimme a phone without a front camera!!
I'm never using it anyway, and without it the phone should be cheaper. Not to mention improved privacy. How come nobody is thinking about selling the phone to people who want privacy?
