Nokia 3 is a Nokia-branded budget Android smartphone from the Finnish company, HMD Global.

Nokia 3 is currently the second-most affordable smartphone by HMD. It launched with Android Noguat 7.1.1 and has been updated to Oreo.[2] The phone uses a MediaTek system on a chip MT6737, and features a polycarbonate back shell with a metal frame; a similar styling cue as the Nokia Lumia 925.

HMD is providing monthly software updates to the phone to help keep users secure.[3]

Due to the relatively affordable price, Nokia 3 is seen as a spiritual successor to the Nokia X family that was released back in 2014.
