Two New Nokia Phones Getting Android 14 Update Two New Nokia Phones Getting Android 14 Update Initially, the Nokia G42 5G was the lone recipient of this major update, highlighting HMD's cautious approach compared to other manufacturers that have swiftly upgraded numerous models to Android 14. The Nokia XR20 5G was the next in line to receive this update, as per the Finnish company's earlier commitments. However, in an unexpected move, HMD Global has now commenced rolling out Android 14 to two additional models: the Nokia X30 and Nokia G60, indicating a shift in their update strategy. According to information from NokiaPoweruser readers, the Nokia X30 5G's Android 14 update, identified by Build number V3.180, is currently being deployed in Taiwan, with plans for a broader rollout remaining undisclosed. While Nokia Mobile has officially recognized the update only for the Nokia XR20 5G alongside the Nokia G42 5G, benchmarking site Geekbench recently listed both the Nokia X30 5G and Nokia G60 5G as running the new Android version. Details Regarding Update HMD Global Rolls Out Android 14 to More Nokia Smartphones Amid Brand Shift Details about the specific enhancements or changes HMD Global has incorporated in its Android 14 updates remain sparse, with the company not divulging beyond the standard Android 14 feature set. With the inclusion of the Nokia X30 and Nokia G60, HMD Global's tally for Android 14 updates stands at a modest three devices, a figure that seems underwhelming given the brand's extensive range of smartphones. This slow pace in updates has set tempered expectations among users for the rollout of Android 14 across the Nokia lineup. This is likely to be further exacerbated given HMD’s foray into self-branded phones, with several announcements on the horizon. FAQs What Nokia models are currently receiving the Android 14 update?
