Defying all the expectations, HMD Global recently made it official that Nokia X series is being released globally on 11th of July. Almost everyone was expecting Nokia X6 to arrive but rumors suggest that Nokia X5 will be the first Nokia X series Smartphone to see global release on July 11. Nokia X5 will be globally christened as Nokia 5.1 Plus which clarify a lot of things about this Smartphone. 

Nokia X5 was earlier supposed to come with a Helio P26 chip-set but recent revelations claim that it will come with a Helio P60 chip-set which if true will guarantee Nokia a good sales record if they manage to keep the pricing relevant. 

The speculated specifications of Nokia X5 may include but not limited to a 5.86-inch 720p IPS notched display and reportedly the notch is bigger and the bezels are thicker as compared to Nokia X6. A 13MP + 5MP dual camera set up is expected on the back and an 8MP selfie shooter on the front side. A 3,000 mAh battery is rumored to be equipped with nokia X5. 

As per the latest Bluetooth certification and Chinese C3 authorities, China will be the first country to receive Nokia X5 and the rest of the world will see it's global release as nokia 5.1 Plus on 11th of July. 

As far as the pricing of Nokia X5 is concerned, it will be selling in China at CNY 799 (approx Rs 8,288 /119.74 USD) for the 32GB variant and CNY 999 (approx Rs 10,363 / 149.71 USD) for the 64GB model which sounds decent considering the specifications of Nokia X5.
