Time for another Nokia device to get its helping of Android Pie.
The Nokia 5.1 Plus is now being updated to Android Pie. HMD Global's Juho Sarvikas confirmed the news earlier today, and users have indeed begun getting the update. Included is a new system navigation, Android 9 Pie features like Adaptive Battery and Adaptive Brightness, and the December 2018 Android security patches.

Sarvikas also revealed that with the Android Pie update, Nokia 5.1 Plus users can now access Pro Camera mode to get more features when snapping photos. The Pro Camera mode is also available to Nokia 6.1 Plus users with the December release.
HMD Global has been one of the better Android device makers when it comes to rolling out Pie updates. We've seen several Nokia phones receive an update to Android Pie in the months since Google's launch, including the Nokia 7.1 and Nokia 7 Plus. Now we can add the Nokia 5.1 Plus to the list, too. HMD previously said that it plans to update all of its Nokia phones to Android Pie, so if your device hasn't yet been updated, just sit tight.
