Nokia 4.2 now up for pre-order in the US, won’t break the bank

If you’re in the market for a mid-range Android smartphone that doesn’t break the bank, the Nokia 4.2 is now up for pre-order in the U.S. through Amazon. Given how many Nokia phones it has listed, Best Buy will likely also carry the Nokia 4.2.

The Nokia 4.2 is set for a May 14 release, with black and pink being your only color options. The $189 price tag makes the limited color choices easier to live with, but the phone only works on GSM networks (sorry, Sprint and Verizon customers).

Best Nokia phones — what are your options? (March 2019)

Nokia was once the biggest smartphone manufacturer in the world but lost its appeal when it overlooked Android and started making Windows-powered smartphones. Microsoft bought the company in 2013, deciding to kill the Nokia brand …

Announced during MWC 2019, the Nokia 4.2 is what HMD Global referred to as an “affordable flagship” device. As a refresher, the Nokia 4.2 features a 5.71-inch IPS display with HD+ (1,520 x 720) resolution, dual rear 13- and 2-megapixel cameras, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 439 chipset, 3GB of RAM, 32GB of expandable storage, and a 3,000mAh battery.

The Nokia 4.2 also runs Android 9 Pie and is an Android One device. That means the phone is slated to receive monthly security updates and at least two major Android updates to Android Q and R.

Finally, the Nokia 4.2 is one of the first Nokia phones to feature a dedicated Google Assistant button. A single click opens Assistant, a double-click opens Google Assistant with a feed, and a press-and-hold keeps Assistant in an active listening mode to maintain a conversation.
