A recent tweet has confirmed that the new line of Nokia smartphones has been planned to be released on the global market.

Rather than as an announcement, the tweet was posted in response to a Twitter user who asked about a release in the United States of the new Nokia android smartphones.

These new smartphones were unveiled at the Mobile World Congress last month: the Nokia 3, Nokia 5 and Nokia 6. Each features a version of Android Nougat that is as close to vanilla as possible. This means there will also be no pre-loaded third-party apps or UI customisations and regular security updates.
