Nokia 9 PureView was announced for $699 (approx. Rs. 50,000).

Nokia 9 PureView Highlights

The USP of the Nokia flagship smartphone is the presence of a penta-lens camera setup, which was developed alongside Light. All the five camera sensors are Zeiss certified and include three 12MP monochrome sensors and two 12MP RGB sensors. When a user captures a photo, each of these sensors will capture the same and the device will fuse all these photos together to make a single image with immense details. It also has the Pro Camera mode to capture stunning photos.

What We Think About Nokia 9 PureView?

Given that the Nokia 9 PureView is all set to be launched by the company sometime soon in the premium price point, we can expect it to be pitted against the likes of other premium models such as OnePlus 7 Pro, Samsung Galaxy S10, etc. But we need to wait to know how well this most expensive Nokia smartphone will perform in terms of sales.
