The Nokia 9 PureView was unveiled back in February at MWC, and except for a teaser, there has been no official information about the phone’s launch in the Indian market. But it now appears that the Nokia 9 PureView is finally ready to hit the shelves in India. The Nokia phone with five rear cameras has received the mandatory BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) certification, which serves as an indication that the phone might be coming to the country soon. Moreover, a new Nokia smartphone carrying the model number TA-1182 has passed the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth certifications, suggesting that an official launch is imminent.
Starting with the Nokia 9 PureView, the Nokia Mobile Facebook page in India released a video teaser last month, asking fans to get ready for clicking breath-taking pictures with the Nokia 9 PureView. However, since then the company has not dropped any information regarding when the Nokia 9 PureView will be made available in the country. But now that the Nokia 9 PureView has been certified by BIS, it appears that the phone is all set for India launch. The phone was caught on the BIS database carrying the model number TA-1087, and its listing was first spotted by MySmartPrice.
