The Nokia 8.1 Plus will join the trend of launching 48-megapixel phones. First of all, Nokia X71 is going to target the upper mid-range category. It’s a high possibility that Nokia 8.1 Plus will also come with the Sony IMX586 sensor as we have seen on the Honor View 20 and Redmi Note 7 Pro. This will be paired with a 120-degree ultra wide angle secondary camera, both with Zeiss optics. Past leaks and rumours suggest that Nokia X71 will have an edge-to-edge display with a punch-hole on the top left corner. The hole shall house the 20-megapixel front camera. The screen would be IPS LCD 6.22 inches in size with a resolution 1080 X 2210 pixels.

Nokia 8.1 Plus will be powered by 10nm Snapdragon 710 chipset coupled with a 4 or 6GB RAM. It has the agility needed to do multitasking and play high-end games with ease. It will also have an internal base storage of 64GB with micro-SD expansion capability.  The rest of the phone should look similar to recent Nokia phones as we expect a glass rear panel with a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor. Nokia 8.1 plus will also have 3700mAh Li-ion battery with fast charging. Likewise, all other Nokia phones, Nokia 8.1 Plus will be an Android One device that runs Android 9 Pie out-of-the-box.
