HMD Global is apparently working on a new smartphone, dubbed the Nokia X7. The upcoming phone will be heavily inspired by the recently launched Nokia X6 and X5, both of which the company recently launched in India under the names Nokia 6.1 Plus and Nokia 5.1 Plus respectively. Now, the company has gone ahead and posted two teaser images of the device to the Nokia Mobile Facebook page in Taiwan, which likely indicates that the launch might take place soon.

In the first image, you can see that the device comes with a tall display. The image is portrayed in such a way that you can’t figure out if there’s a notch present or not. However, according to previous reports, the device will sport a notched display similar to the one on the Nokia X5/Nokia 5.1 Plus. The second image does mention the display will have an aspect ratio of 19:9, backing the claim that the device might have a notched display.
