New wine in old bottles? Nokia may re-make the legendary N9, can it regain its former glory?

Speaking of Nokia’s epoch-making classics, N9 should be well-deserved on the list. The N9, released eight years ago in June 2011, had avant-garde elements such as gesture operation, 2.5D screen, capacitive screen, first-level menu desktop, etc., and was equipped with the unique Meego system. At that time, the N9 was equipped with Texas Instruments (TI) OMAP3630 processor, as well as 1GB of memory and 16GB of storage space. This configuration was quite luxurious in 2011.

However, it is a pity that Meego succeeded and failed. Just 7 months after its launch, Nokia announced that it would abandon the Meego system on the N9, making the N9 a swan song.

The good news is that some foreign media reported that Nokia may launch a replica of the N9, which will maintain the appearance of the previous generation N9 while upgrading to a stronger processor, using Android 10 system, and the screen will also evolve to a comprehensive screen and narrower bezels.

In this regard, designer Antony Andreas released a concept phone rendering of "Nokia N9 2020", which retains the classic design language of N9. I have to lament the avant-garde design of Nokia at that time, even today it feels Not outdated at all.

The chamfered edges and 3.5mm headphone jack on the original N9 have been continued, as well as the classic AOD display function. If Nokia’s replica N9 can be presented in this appearance, it will still be quite attractive, especially Is a loyal fan.

At present, Nokia officials have not indicated a detailed launch time, but given that there has been a replica of the Nokia Banana Phone 3310 before, the possibility of a replica of the N9 still exists. Do you think if the N9 was really re-engraved, would you be tempted to buy it?
