Nokia phone with dual camera, 8GB RAM was just spotted

Dubai - Frenzy of rumours swirling around three new high-end phones - just after four were unveiled

Nokia's newest smartphones haven't even fully hit shelves, but they're already gearing up for a full-fledged comeback in the world it once reigned supreme.
The Finnish company along with its licenced developer HMD Global unveiled the remake of the iconic - and now being sold - Nokia 3310 and its first Android-powered devices, the Nokia 3, 5 and 6, in February. The last three will start selling next month.
If you can't wait or at least are curious about them, then let this rumour add to some spice: word has it that three more - yes, three more - Nokia handsets are on there way, and it's sooner than later.
Talk of the Nokia 7, 8 and 9 have been swirling around, and they're no pushovers, if the leaks are to be believed.
Tapscape detailed some of the specs we could expect from these new beasts:
Nokia 7: Metal casing, an FHD display with a resolution of 1080×1920 pixels, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 chipset, Android Nougat, ultra-fast charging, fingerprint sensor and a Carl Zeiss optics main camera.
Nokia 8: 5.7-inch QHD display with a screen aspect ratio of 16:9, a 22MP main camera and 12MP front snapper both using Carl Zeiss lenses, 6GB RAM, up to 128GB of storage plus 256GB of microSD. While rumours say it will also come with a Snapdragon 660, there's word that Nokia might be using the latest 835, just like those found on the Samsung Galaxy S8 and Sony Xperia XZ Premium.
Nokia 9: Rumoured to be the 'most high-end' smartphone from Nokia ever. 5.5-inch quad-HD display with a resolution of 1440×2560 pixels and a screen aspect ratio of 18:9 (just like the LG G6), a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 chipset, Android Nougat and, just like the Nokia 8, 6GB RAM with up to 128GB of internal storage and 256GB of microSD. It's also said that the Nokia 9 will have very thin bezels and will be metallic, and will also include features such as include water-, dust- and scratch-resistance, fingerprint and iris sensor, voice assistance and a 3800mAh battery with ultra-quick charging. Its main camera is said to be 22MP with OIS and a front 12MP shooter with an aperture of f/2.0, good for low-light scenes. It's also rumoured to have a rather steep price tag of 750 euros ($840, almost Dh3,100) - putting it firmly alongside the cream of the crop.
For good measure, GSM Arena uncovered that the Nokia 9 has been spotted with a ridiculous 8GB of RAM. Which could be the reason why a GeekBench test showed that the Nokia 9 outclasses other Snapdragon 835-armed devices, including the Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+, Sony Xperia XZ Premium and the Huawei Mate 9.
The folks at FrAndroid, meanwhile, got a prototype of the Nokia 9, and it seems to show a dual camera (uhm, you need to brush up on your French to understand it, though).
It's a little bit muddled right now, but one thing's for sure: with seven phones in just a few months, Nokia is dead serious to become relevant again.
