An affordable Nokia smartphone, codenamed ‘TA-1000’ has been spotted on China’s 3C certification website.
It’s no secret that Nokia is making a comeback, and if reports are to be believed, as many as five smartphones could be unveiled at MWC 2017 in February. Now, a new smartphone has been spotted online having passed passed China Compulsory Certification (3C).
The Nokia smartphone spotted online comes with a model number ‘TA-1000’, and as per the listing, it features standard 5V/2A charging support, AndroidPure reports.
