The Nokia 7.1 launch is expected to be the highlight of the event HMD Global will be hosting today in London. It is slated to kick off at 5pm BST (9:30pm IST) and will be live-streamed on YouTube. The company sent invites for the event just a couple of days ago, but the handset has been part of the rumour mill for several weeks now. In fact, the Nokia 7.1 price, specifications, and design have already been revealed thanks to a bunch of leaks and listings on certification websites. Separately, HMD Global is hosting a launch event in India on October 11, though it is not clear whether the product being unveiled there will be the Nokia 7.1.
