Matt, 15 Aug 2023I despise this phone. It has an ugly, unchangeable lock screen clock, crashes constantly, play... moreWhy so much fabricated frustration to pretend any Samsung is better? I expected a more honest feedback from an American tbh. I've used both brands and I found Nokia to be a better brand comparatively.
The lockscreen clock becomes smaller with unread notifications. A temporary fix I can suggest is to make the display items smaller and increase the font size from display settings. This should reduce the massive clock to a far pleasant-looking clock.
The beeps when connecting, ending and minute minder (I was annoyed by it too) can be disabled via the settings from the default phone app. If the option is removed from the phone app, either update the default phone app, fill in Google's feedback form or put up an app review in the Google Play Store.
If an app closes on exit, turn on developer options and set the number of background processes to 4, instead of the default "standard limit". It's a very simple fix that commenters here complain for no reason. And with the fact that this phone has a promising chipset paired with UFS storage, loading an app takes less than 5 seconds. Long gone are the days where we spent more than 5 minutes to see the home feed being refreshed in the respective social media apps.
The "colour-changing bars" appear to be a bug in Android 12, and will be patched out eventually via software updates.
People visit this website to get a good idea of what they're about to purchase, and not the tantrums of device users, so commenting your niggles with countless solutions at your disposal isn't a good decision for a reputed website.

I despise this phone. It has an ugly, unchangeable lock screen clock, crashes constantly, plays an annoying set of 3 descending tones during calls when it connects so you'll hear them five times in a two minute phone call with no way to turn it off, it's so buggy that sometimes you have to restart the phone because every time you try to open an app it will automatically close, and one time my screen had a total meltdown and and was showing crazy bars of changing colors and I was so mad because I thought my phone was somehow defective only for it to go back to normal later and never do the same thing again. I'm typing this on it right now and my ultimate dream is to one day snap it half and brake it into a million pieces. Get a Samsung instead

Nokia support just told me why my G400 doesn't work in the UK. The G400 was designed for the U.S. market and has limited compatibility with non-U.S. 4G networks. It is a good phone for use in the U.S. but I would not have bought it if I had known it would not work with non-U.S. SIM cards in other countries.

You mean the unlocked version has fewer LTE bands than the T-Mobile version?
That seems oddly true, based on the below, but which of those will actually make a practical difference?:
Network bands (5G NR):TMO: n25, n66, n77, n71, n41; TF/CC/OpenMarket: n2, n5, n66, n77, n71, n25, n41
Network bands (GSM):TMO: 850, 900, 1800, 1900; TF/CC/OpenMarket: 850, 900, 1800, 1900
Network bands (LTE):TMO: B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B7, B8, B12, B13, B25, B26, B66, B71, B38, B39, B40, B41; TF/CC/OpenMarket: B2, B4, B5, B12, B13, B25, B26, B66, B71, B41
Network bands (WCDMA):TMO: 1, 2, 4, 5; TF/CC/OpenMarket: 2, 4, 5

It's $180 unlocked on Amazon now. As far as carried-locked phones being 'free' goes, that's not how it works - the customer ends up paying for the phone with a more expensive plan.

I hate depth , ultrawide and big screen (above 6.0 inch) phones. Really these three specs are totally useless. Instead of those specs the phone companies better to consider the
01. huge battery capacity (5000 - 6500mAh) with removable battery.
02. WiFi 5 or 6e with dual band.
03. Better phone speaker.
04. Good screen guard.

zoyd, 28 Aug 2022For 250Euro this is not worth. but Xiaomi or Vivo or Motorola are cheap and best. I wouldn't trust Xaomi as far as I could throw Xi Xinping.

It's ridiculous seeing how this phone is a carrier locked USA phone while 99% of the comments are from competitive markets like India and China
