Yesterday we wrote of a white version of the immensely popular Nokia 6 being sold in the Philippines. Well, the Communications Director of HMD Global denied the existence of such device.
We haven’t launched Nokia 6 in Philippines market. The seller is a 3rd party retailer on Lazada platform and is not an authorized seller.
Now, that was pretty clear from the start, but it appears the white color has been merely a mistake in the listing.
The listing on Lazada has actually already been changed to black. The price stays PHP 18,590 or about $370 (the official JD.com retail sells the phone for $247).
HMD Global said that it’s possible the 3rd party retailer got its hands on a few Nokia 6 units and imported them on its own, but there's no official launch outside of China just yet.
The initial Nokia 6 batch sold out in China in a minute and 1.4 million people have already registered their interest in taking part in the next sale.
