Nokia 9 Leaked Render

A leaked photo of the Nokia 9 has appeared on China’s microblogging website Weibo. The image shows that the design of the Nokia 9 is quite different from the Nokia 8 that came with thick bezels. The top and bottom bezels of the Nokia 9 are thin compared to the Nokia 8 and its eft and right bezels appear non-existent. The upper bezel seems to feature dual front-facing cameras. Since the major portion of the front panel is occupied by the display, it appears that it may support an aspect ratio of 18:9.

Since the image shows only the front view of the phone, there is no confirmation on whether it has a glass or metallic rear. Since there is no way to confirm whether the render shown really belongs to the Nokia 9, we advise our readers to wait for further leaks to confirm on its design.
