Nokia Phone With QWERTY Keyboard Spotted At The FCC

These days when it comes to phones with physical QWERTY keyboards, it seems like BlackBerry/TCL is still the only company interested in churning out such handsets. However according to a report from NPU, it looks like Nokia/HMD Global could also be considering a similar device.

This is according to a “well-known source” who has speculated that a recently-spotted Nokia TA-1047 could be a phone with a QWERTY keyboard. The handset in question was recently spotted at the FCC and while the filing does not confirm specs or features, its dimensions led to speculation that there could be a QWERTY keyboard as part of the phone’s design.

It is also speculated that it could feature a 3.3-inch 480×480 resolution display, powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 205 processor, and might run a custom OS of its own called Kai OS, but whether or not this is based on Android or something else entirely remains to be seen. Back in the day, Nokia did release phones with QWERTY keyboards similar to BlackBerry, so this wouldn’t really be a stretch of the imagination, but do take it with a grain of salt for now.

There is no word on when the phone will be officially launched, but with CES and MWC 2018 around the corner, it is possible that Nokia/HMD could have new phones to share at either event.
