Nokia 5 was announced just last month in India. The device tags a brand name that was once highly valued in the country and it still has its fill of fan following. Nokia 5 has impressive specifications for the price range it is being offered in.
Initially, only the 2GB RAM variant was launched and it came in as a disappointment to the Nokia fans as there are smartphones with better specs in this price bracket.
Understanding the demand of the Nokia fans, HMD seems to have quietly announced a new variant of the Nokia 5 with 3GB RAM in India. It has been announced by HMD India that this variant of Nokia 5 will be exclusive to Flipkart for a week and will be available via select retail outlets from November 14. Given that the sale will debut tomorrow, Flipkart has already listed the Nokia 5 with 3GB RAM as available with a price tag of Rs. 13,499.
