See the bigger picture and do more for longer – watch, learn and create on the large 6.5” HD+ screen. And, thanks to its two-day battery life, you’re free to enjoy your favourite apps and games for longer without battery anxiety.

Plus, the Nokia 2.4 comes with our Android promise, giving you three years of monthly security updates and two years of OS updates, meaning it’s ready for Android 11 and 12.
Speaking during the announcement, Gopher Ogembo, Senior Business Manager, HMD Global said the 2-series is a fan favourite as it brings many great features such as a two-day battery life, an AI-powered camera and pure, secure and up-to-date Android, all in an affordable and elegant package. “The Nokia 2.4 continues to exceed expectations when it comes to what a phone within this segment can provide. We’ve included high-end features like the AI camera with Night mode and Portrait mode. The large screen makes for a more immersive visual experience, and for added security, a biometric fingerprint sensor is included, which is a first for the series. All of this wrapped up in a timeless Finnish design that’s reflected in the Nokia 2.4 colour palette – introducing Dusk to the range – a light, dusty shade of purple that is inspired by Nordic nature,” he said.
“During this uncertain time, an increasing number of people are becoming reliant on their devices, so we are doing what we do best by bringing products you can be proud of at a great value that are packed full of innovation, and wrapped in a stunning Nordic design. It’s important to us to make technology accessible to all and to push the boundaries with every device we create,” Mr Ogembo concluded.

With the new Portrait Editor, you can refocus and edit pictures long after you’ve snapped them – making for instantly shareable and unique shots.
Watch, learn and create on a 6.5” screen and enjoy long-lasting entertainment
A large HD+ display with a selfie notch maximises the screen, bringing you an elevated viewing experience at an accessible price for those looking to get lost in their favourite shows. Plus, staying true to the signature two-day battery life you’d expect from the Nokia 2 range, the Nokia 2.4 is packed with a large 4500mAh battery that lasts up to two days on a single charge thanks to the AI-assisted Adaptive Battery, so you can spend more time recharging yourself and not your phone.[i] It learns what apps you use the most and prioritises power for them – so you can use more of the features you love, for longer.
