Nokia 9 to be IP67 Certified and also have support for Wireless Charging.

Nokia 9 to come with support for wireless charging
With every passing day, the internet is flooding more and more with Nokia 9 leaks and rumors. Recently, there was also a Nokia 9 case listed on amazon.com which looked like a fake product. But as per a report on VTechgraphy, a trusted member of nokibar forums on Baidu in China who has previously shared accurate information related to past Nokia devices has confirmed that the case listed on Amazon is actually of Nokia 9 and the real phone looks similar to what is shown in the images.

According to the source, Nokia 9 will come with support for wireless charging which Nokia had introduced back in 2012. The back of the phone will be glass to allow wireless charging. Nokia 9 will also come with IP67 Dust and Water protection certification. The source also mentioned about the removal of headphone jack from Nokia 9.

In addition to the above info, the source also mentioned about another camera-centric phone - B2(internal name) with full screen and similar back design. No more info is known about this mysterious B2 device. Will it be an upgrade to the Nokia 9 OR Is it a completely new Nokia device? This is just a speculation and only time will tell if there is any such real device.

Coming to the specifications, Nokia 9 will be powered by Snapdragon 835 processor and may come in 6GB RAM+64GB ROM and 8GB RAM+128GB ROM variants. Nokia 9 is expected to feature a 5.5" 2K display and will be the first Nokia device to feature a bezel-less design. Nokia 9 will have a metal frame with Glass at front and back of the device. The device will come with IP67 Certification making it Dust and Waterproof and also have support for wireless charging. Based on the 3D Renders, Nokia 9 will come equipped with ZEISS branded Dual Camera setup at the back. We can also expect OZO Audio technology to be present on this beast of a phone.

With increasing number of leaks and rumors, Nokia 9 could be much closer to its launch. I expect Nokia 9 to be announced at Slush 2017 which begins from 30th November. Nokia has also confirmed its presence at the event where they will be showcasing Nokia phones along with other innovations in OZO Audio and Nokia health.

This is just a guess and there is no evidence that Nokia 9 would be announced at Slush 2017. If the phone doesn't launch at Slush event then, there are two other big events (CES and MWC) at the start of 2018 and we can expect Nokia 9 to be launched at one of those events.

Treat this information as a rumor until the device is officially launched.
