HMD Global, the home of Nokia phones, today announces the launch of its latest smartphone … the Nokia 1.4.
Boasting an impressive screen size, which stretches to 6.51 inches edge-to-edge, it is almost a full inch bigger than its predecessor, and the largest ever to feature on a 1 series Nokia.
Joseph Umunakwe, General Manager, HMD Global: West, East and Central Africa says
“More families are at home needing ways to stay entertained and productive. At the same time, for those separated by distance, there is a desire to stay safe yet connected. We built the Nokia 1.4 to meet those needs and give family members a reliable device that offers an enjoyable experience.”
“The Nokia 1.4 comes with an increased screen size to offer maximum viewing capacity. Families can stay connected and productive, without worrying about the kids using the phone. We improved the experience with our signature two-day battery life, built-in parental controls and a mishap-proof body. Google’s AI on the Camera Go app and a macro camera also help to capture those epic family moments”
The new expanded HD+ screen comes into its own with video calling apps, helping families to stay connected amid the current climate, and showcases Nokia 1.4’s camera capabilities.
The dual-camera setup coupled with the Camera Go app by Google helps you take high-quality photos at any time, even under low light conditions. Capture precious family moments with Portrait Mode that lets you achieve professional-looking photos with blurred backgrounds. Use Night Mode to take colour-rich and crisp low-light shots without the need for flash. Helpful storage indicators will take away any worries about space so you can carry on snapping.
The built-in macro lens will entertain the whole family, as kids get up close and personal with nature while exploring the great outdoors. It comes in handy at home when you need to zoom in on the fine print on those important documents.
Nokia phones have a well-deserved reputation for being sturdy, durable devices and the Nokia 1.4 is no exception. This is an affordable phone which you can happily hand over to children to borrow without worrying about the condition it will come back in. Design-wise it is crafted to sit securely in any hand and contains a Qualcomm® chipset and fingerprint sensor.
Staying true to Nokia smartphone values, the Nokia 1.4 is ready for AndroidTM 11 (Go edition) and beyond. It offers a faster, more secure way of doing things with our unique Android promise and at least three years of security updates, you can rest assured your phone will stand the test of time on the inside as much as on the outside.
Built-in parental controls allow users to manage content downloaded from Google Play Store and will give grown-ups the peace of mind to allow children to listen, learn or play until their hearts are content.
There is no need to worry about battery life either. The Nokia 1.4 will keep you entertained and connected at the same time thanks to the improved two-day capacity of the phone’s impressive powerpack. So, whether it’s long video calls, streaming or playing games, there’s more than enough power to keep the whole family occupied.
