Claudesp33d, 02 Jun 2024A reminder that this phone sucks. Never buy nokia or hmd againSays a person who hasn't used a single Nokia or HMD phone.
Disappointed
Ghost touch fix (easy solution 100% win)
I had this phone since 2021, after 6 months it was plagued by ghost touches. Otherwise the phone has been great, very snappy and smooth... At least until I installed android 11... The app switch is very slow, the phone lags when switching between apps and it's not as smooth as it used to be. Restarted it 3 times to no avail. Anyways, to the ghost touch fix:
I was walking down stairs and suddenly I dropped my phone... It fell and continued dropping the stairs one by one, it made loud noise as it dropped and got slapped several times. I thought to myself, what a beautiful sight, finally it's time to get rid of this piece of trash by HMD. Unfortunately it was intact... Indeed very good build quality. In the next hours, I noticed that I no longer had ghost touches.... Weeeeeee 🥳🥳. Seems the only fix is by smashing it on a wall or repairing the screen
Guys, the phone is crap and pain to use, it's a win win situation, either drop it from 1 meter distance on the stairs and possibly repair the ghost touches. Or get a smashed HMD, throw it in the trash, and spoil yourself with a new phone from another brand. I recommend infinix, Sony Xperia, Lg. These in my experience don't rig their phones and sabotage the user experience by software updates.
Great phone it's just shame that it can't have anymore updates 😔

Further to my review posted in April 2022, I have honestly not encountered any of the issues posted by some reviewers here. I still find the phone to be excellent value for money. Screen is still amongst the very best FHD IPS screens in terms of sunlight legibility, video playback, photo viewing, and related matters. Great daylight photos and videos. Typing on the screen is still buttery smooth - even with a tempered glass screen protector. Emails, Whatsapp, Chat messages, etc., are a breeze. I use the phone as a productivity tool and NOT FOR GAMING. I also ensure that apps are updated and that the cache is cleaned (emptied)

Also it's your own fault for purchasing the 32GB model when there's a tiny price gap between higher storage models
Ohhohoh get ready..
The first week I had the phone I already had these issues I've had it for three years now and hated it. When touching the screen 1/4 of the time it Never works, there's incredibly big lag which you have to wait 5 minutes for it to go away, there's only 32 gigabites, when I download something from the play store it doesn't work 2/3 of the times, sometimes the battery shows the wrong percentage, sometimes when I try to delete files or download apps the phone just restarts. there's too many issues to remember, just get a Samsung.

Have had this phone for a year. Screen is the best IPS screen I have seen so far. Excellent brightness and best sunlight legibility. I easily get TWO to THREE days battery life with a single charge Photos and videos are top notch. Buttery smooth typing on the screen. Only slight downside is the SLOW PROCESSOR (Snapdragon 636). This phone is for everyday normal use with texts, emails, videos, etc. The slow processor means that this phone is NOT FOR GAMING. For consumption of content, the phone has unbeatable value for money.

I can't even access my recent pages
I bought a Nokia because it is user friendly.
The latest updates turned my phone onto a mare.
If I wanted a useless phone I would have bought another brand.
I'm disappointed.
I received android 11 update. I haven't installed it yet. But it seems nokia had cancelled it, because i can't find it now under system update.
chronotee, 27 Jul 2021Hi I too had this whitish issueThe proximity sensor is an annoyance for sure while on calls. Sounds very similar to what I experience pretty much every call. I don't enjoy the photo quality but have decided propping on solid surface and using the flash is best way to go.
I do agree with phone pros otherwise, it has been a good.
