New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….
Original story (published on May 16, 2020) follows:
The blessing of Google’s Android One meant that owners of Nokia devices can rest assured that they’ll receive at least two major Android operating system updates from the time of purchasing their phones.
Even better is that HMD Global isn’t entirely focused on limiting the two-year Android OS update policy to its Android One portfolio. With respect to the Nokia Android 10 update, devices not featured in the program are also receiving their second OS upgrade.
To be more specific, the entry-level Nokia 1 and Nokia 2.1 that launched with a non-Android One version of Android Oreo are set to receive Android 10 this Q2 2020.
That’s great stuff from Nokia and here, we have a detailed list of all handsets that have picked up the Nokia Android 10 update so far. We will keep the list up to date by revisiting it whenever a new Nokia device picks up the OS.
