SShreyas, 27 Jul 2021"The Nokia XR20 is here and it's what Nokia belie... moreI bought three Nokia 6.1 phones (not the plus) and one 8110 4G feature phone and all of them are still working without issues. The charging port issue on the 6.1 plus could be due to other reasons. Blaming a tech website over your faulty phones is so immature as they review phones and tech and are not really biased towards any brand

    Huh, well, interestring thing, a solid build nokia phone, not cheap, strange camera setup, but why not?

      I'd have been tempted if it had a Snap 780, with a 4 series it's just too weak.
      Could have gone for it with a Dimensity 1200 too.

        pankajupadhyay, 27 Jul 2021Reminds me of Nokia Lumia 710 with curved edges Yes

          They got everything right except that weak chipset, this is the rugged phone that could have made a difference - with an SD780.
          Now we have another poor rugged phone that looks better and offers less protection than the others.

            Reminds me of Nokia Lumia 710 with curved edges

                  Does it have OIS camera?

                    "The Nokia XR20 is here and it's what Nokia believes a no-compromises mobile should be - calling it life-proof"
                    Aah GSMArena. I hoped better from you guys. You are just writing whatever that useless brand claimed. At least verify it.
                    Here's my experience:
                    I bought a 6.1 Plus as my secondary phone in 2018. A few months down the line, the phone was selling for half of its launch price. But more importantly, I got my charging port replaced-thrice. Then, last month only, it went dead and the brand gave a solution of replacing the motherboard. THIS WAS THE ONLY PHONE THAT LASTED ME LESS THAN 7 YEARS.
                    I chose to buy a primary phone and my previous primary became my secondary one.
                    Also, the software experience of so-called "stock Android" was worse than MIUI that I am using now. With constant stutters and restarts, that phone was barely usable.

                    So, what you get with Nokia is:
                    Extremely overpriced phone (more than Samsung)
                    Cheap quality components (like eMMC on a €600 phone)
                    Ultra cheap manufacturing (like charging port)

                    P.S: 6.1+ is said to be manufactured by Foxconn. The same company that manufactures iPhone.

                              The Nokia XR20 runs Android 11 and Nokia has committed to four years of monthly security updates and three years of major OS updates
                              Monthly security updates may come 2-3 months later. First OS update will be provided at the end of 3 year and second OS update may be available by the end of 5 year.
                              Snapdragon 480 chipset, may not be able to work smoothly with 3 OS updates. 4,630mAh battery is too short for a rug phone. 6,000 mAh battery is common even for low end phones now.
                              Other brands are providing 25/35/65 W charger in the box and HMD is still stuck with 18 W charger. No sure, how much time it will take to full charge the battery with this charger.
                              Considering all these points, $550 for this handset is too much.

                                  Anonymous, 27 Jul 20216 = dust 8 = water Dust can damage electronics. I know all that.
                                  And in all honesty, when was the last time you saw a smartphone or even a computer being killed by dust?
                                  It didn't say that it never happen, but it is super rare, and most of the time it isn't regular dust, it is often stuff like workshop dust which is really conductive unlike regular household dust.

                                  And the certification itself doesn't change anything, it is the way the smartphone is made that make it waterproof or dustproof or not.

                                    the only good hmd has done with this phone is dumping macro and depth sensors.

                                      What about IP69K
