Nokia 9 passes FCC with 5.5-inch OLED display, Snapdragon 835 SoC

Nokia 9 is no longer a mystery, as the upcoming smartphone has been passed through the FCC


HMD Global’s Nokia 9 has received FCC approval ahead of its speculated launch on January 19
Nokia 9 is no longer a mystery, as the upcoming smartphone has been passed through the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The listing of the Nokia 9 has revealed that the phone has a model number TA-1005 and its codename is Avatar.  The FCC database has seemingly confirmed the Nokia 9, along with the specifications of the flagship smartphone.
The successor to the Nokia 8 will be a high-end smartphone, and it shows. Nokia 9 is said to sport a 5.5-inch display  manufactured by LG, which should offer vibrant colours and deep blacks.  In comparison, Nokia 8 featured a 5.3-inch Quad HD (2560 x 1440) IPS LCD display. In addition to this, Nokia 9 will likely feature a Snapdragon 835 processor and not the latest Snapdragon 845 mobile platform. It becomes more clear that Samsung is going to have dibs on the Snapdragon 845 processor for the Galaxy S9. The South Korean major has a similar deal with the Snapdragon 835 as well.
Nokia 9 has a dual-camera setup on the back, like the Nokia 8. However, the resolutions are slightly lower on the Nokia 9 with a 12MP and 13MP sensor. The device will have a 5MP snapper on the front. While we still don’t know much about the RAM size, we do know that the Nokia 9 will be getting 128GB internal storage. Plus, there will be a microSD card slot for expandable storage. As expected, the device will run Android 8.0 Oreo out-of-the-box.
Nokia 9 will replace the Nokia 8, which made its debut in August this year. HMD Global will reportedly launch the device on January 19 in China, along with the 2018 version of the Nokia 6.

Beijing’s struggle against pollution will be tough, take time: Mayor

Beijing’s battle against air pollution will take time and be very tough to win despite recent improvements, the acting mayor of China’s capital said on Wednesday. The city has been fighting to clean its notoriously smoggy air through steps such as pushing households and factories to switch away from coal to cleaner fuels like natural gas. “Further improvement in air quality (will be) extremely difficult,” acting mayor of Beijing, Chen Jining, said in a statement released during the city’s congress meeting. The central government’s intense focus on air quality means many local officials’ careers are linked to the success of efforts to tackle smog, making it unusual to speak candidly about the challenges of meeting tough targets. Beijing has chalked up a short-term success by cutting the annual average level of breathable particulate matter (PM 2.5) to 58 micrograms per cubic metre in 2017, beating a target set by the State Council in 2012. However, the city is still some way f...

(source: Wikimedia commons) The Trump Administration has slapped anti-dumping duties on stainless steel flangs and finer denier polyester staple fiber from China and India. Exporters from China and India received countervailing subsidies of 41.73 to 47.55 per cent and 9.50 to 25.28 percent, respectively, the US Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross alleged Wednesday. As such he has instructed US Customs and Border Protection to collect cash deposits from importers of fine denier polyester staple fiber from China and India based on these final rates. “The US will no longer sit back and watch as its domestic businesses are destroyed by unfair foreign government subsidies. We will continue to take action on behalf of US industry to defend American businesses, workers, and communities adversely impacted by unfair imports,” Ross was quoted as saying by PTI. In 2016, imports of fine denier polyester staple fiber from China and India were ...
