All these Nokia mobiles will be updated to Android 11

As usual, with the arrival of a new version of Android, the cycle begins in which manufacturers begin to work on the next version of Android. This exercise requires not only adaptation to new changes, but also planning in each company’s own catalog. What models to update? What will be the deadlines to meet? What models will go before or after?

At the moment manufacturers like Xiaomi and Oppo have detailed their plans, and it seems that Nokia would be the next. The Finnish company has published an official list in the last hours, a list that it has ended up erasing with great immediacy. However, it helps us to get an idea about the models that are already listed.

Nokia’s first list of mobiles that will update to Android 11

Nokia is one of the companies that is taking the most seriousness with Android updates, and it shows. It is not the company that is updating the fastest, but it is the one that is demonstrating the most rigor and transparency, with update schedules that, with minor exceptions, usually comply with great punctuality. And it seems that the company has published its first plans to Android 11.

Keep in mind that, although the list of devices has been published on Nokia’s official Twitter (image captured by Neowin), it has ended up being eliminated. This means that although the source is official, it is not entirely accurate. Most likely, this information is internally approved, but at the last moment they have decided to backtrack, the most likely cause being some last minute addition or change (for example, that the Nokia 9 is the last of the list being the last terminalpremium

Most relevant changes in Android 11

• Notifications:
  • Notification bubbles: Android now incorporates a native floating notification system similar to the Facebook Messenger bubbles, but much more efficient (so much so that even Facebook abandons its system in Android 11). Applications like Telegram are already experimenting with this system and hopefully it will also end up on WhatsApp.
  • Controls for multimedia applications are now part of the quick settings panel.
  • Now we will have a notification history for each application.
  • Grouped notifications have a cleaner and more visual appearance.
  • Priority notifications allow us to select more important contacts and receive personalized notifications with their avatar and able to bypass do not disturb mode.
• After holding down the power button, we will not only have access to payment cards, but we also have the possibility of having control of the home automation.
• Privacy:
  • Specific storage becomes a mandatory feature: From now on, applications that require the use of storage permissions will not be able to register your mobile in full, but only access the files necessary for their use.
    • An exception is made for file managers, which still need full access.
  • Automatic restoration of permissions: When we have not used an app for a long time, it will lose access to the permissions it already had.
  • One-time permissions for camera or microphone: Want to give an app permission to use the camera or microphone but don’t want to give it permission forever? Now you can allow them to use these elements once.
