On its website, Nokia claims that an incompatibility between the camera and the software would have had a negative impact on the user experience, so the device will remain on Android 10. As a band-aid, owners are offered a 50 percent discount on hard-wearing Nokia XR20, “Or on another device depending on local availability”.
Interested Nokia 9 PureView owners will only need to enter their email address and phone’s IMEI number. Then instructions are emailed. The offer is available in the Nordic countries according to Nokia’s website.
That is why we had to make the tough choice not to offer the Android 11 software upgrade for Nokia 9 PureView. Incompatibilities between the camera and the software would have led to a compromised experience that does not meet our high standards.
Your current Nokia 9 PureView won’t change and you will continue to receive security updates. But, for those of you looking to make the jump to Android 11, we’re offering a 50% discount on Nokia XR20, or another device depending on regional availability.
