The Nokia 3 tagged with model number TA-1028 features 000C_1_305 as the firmware version with a Wi-Fi component version va.72.f0 . With certification ID WFA71165, the device is categorized as Smartphone, multi-mode.
On the specifications front, the Nokia 3 features a 5-inch IPS display, 2GB RAM, Mediatek MT6737 processor, 8MP rear camera, 8MP front-facing snapper loaded with Android 7.0 Nougat. If you verify the specifications, they are not attractive.
