The 3/32GB variant of the Nokia 4.2 is now available in Kenya at the recommended prize of Ksh. 18,500. It comes with Android 9 Pie out of the box, and being an Android One device, you’re assured of 2 years of continous updates.
At this price point, this phone directly competes with not only other Nokias like the
- Nokia 5.1 Plus, but also with
- Huawei’s Y7 Prime 2019,
- Infinix S4, and the
- Samsung Galaxy A20.
The competition is really tight, and I feel the pricing of this new phone is quite high. Here’s the full specs of the Nokia 4.2:
