Nokia X6 is a new smartphone from HMD Global, which is scheduled for its launch on 16 May in China.
According to an image that appeared on Baidu , the Chinese retailer Suning.com offers the phone for CNY 1,499 - approximately Rs 16,000. Going by the images and posters leaked online, the highlight of the Nokia X6 is the emulation of the display notch on the front; something that Nokia has steered clear off in the past. We tried searching the original listing on the Chinese retail website Suning.com and were unable to access it, and hence cannot confirm whether the price is genuine.
