Nokia 5.1 Plus receiving Android 9.0 Pie update

‘Tis the season for software updates! Several devices have received updates in the past couple weeks and the Nokia 5.1 Plus is the latest device to join the club. HMD Global’s Chief Product Officer Juho Sarvikas has announced that the Nokia 5.1 Plus is now receiving an update to Android 9.0 Pie. The update is beginning to roll out today, and will reach all devices within the next week or so.

Along with the usual features of Android 9.0 Pie, Nokia is bringing Pro Camera to the Nokia 5.1 Plus. If you’ll remember, Pro Camera was introduced way back when Nokia made its Lumia devices that ran on Windows Phone OS. Pro Camera includes full manual controls, allowing you to adjust your phone’s camera in much the same way you would a DSLR.

The Nokia 6.1 Plus will also receive Pro Camera as part of its regular December update.

Android 9.0 Pie brings in a refreshed UI that features gesture- and swipe-based navigation. It also features Adaptive Battery, app actions, Slices, and Digital Wellbeing, which allows you to monitor and control how much you’re using your phone and what you’re using it for.
