Nokia G60 hands-on review

08 November 2022
Nokia's feature phone does many things right but risks pricing itself out.

Sort by:

you have to suffer, 14 Nov 2022not even 200 dollars. customers would still not take it. 16... moretell me a brand that give the exact same phone at 165?

    Seems like a decent phone but that Moto G60 rebadge of a design is just plain UGLY. Generic. Zero character. If you took out the Nokia branding I wouldn't know which phone it was.

    Can't they just put those specs in the body of a Lumia 1520? Nokia had some great smartphone designs in the past (including the N7Plus) yet HMD is only reusing the old feature phone ones.

      This one gets my money

        As a once big Nokia fan, I'm now shopping elsewhere. That's because HMD stopped developing high-end devices after the failure of the 9 Pureview. But to say this G60 is rubbish; I disagree. It shares parts with 99% of similar phones and the price here in the UK today is £249, or around €285. So enjoy the choice, otherwise there will only be Apple and Samsung left. For those of us old enough to remember: Samsung was a cheap brand copying every Nokia design in the early noughties.

          I bought a Nokia 7.2 with Android One updates promise. Just lies.
          If you buy a G60 don't weigh the updates..,they may not arrive.

                  AutoFocus, 14 Nov 2022Never going to buy another HMD Nokia phone or any of their ... moreHmd Nokia is one of the worst phone brands currently. Idk why Nokia wants to ruin their own image with all this. Today's kids will remember Nokia as overpriced low quality company

                    Never going to buy another HMD Nokia phone or any of their products again. Learnt my bitter lesson with Nokia 7.2. A much delayed promised software upgrade when finally arrived and installed made the phone stop charging. In order to recharge one had to restart the phone every time. The problem was not fixable to even HMD service center personnel and they told me to wait for a potential software update which was indefinitely not happening. The company at that time was not even acknowledged the wide spread broken update that broke phone recharge functionality for many. The problem remained for more than 1.5 months without bug fix update from the company forcing me to buy a new Samsung phone.

                    The 7.2 was a bugged phone even without any updates like its temporary image retention on screen issue when using an app for some time then moving to another. It also had faulty light sensor issue evident when coming from bright outdoor to indoor then everything in the screen turns into milky shade. Now I clearly aware of the fact that HMD phones has nothing to do with the original Nokia people all praised. HMD only licensed to use "Nokia" sticker on their substandard products and unreliable commitment and support. Companies like these needs to shutter down their business.

                      Goku412, 14 Nov 2022the only strong point to sell this phone, is the promises o... morenot even 200 dollars. customers would still not take it. 165 would be worth it.

                        cyber, 14 Nov 2022and cheap lcd,almost all competitors has an oled nowdepends on type of lcd.
                        ips lcd is fine. less burn-ins, cheap to repair. but i dont like waterdrop notch, it looks like entry level phone. some people might defend them though. like vivo Y series fanboys.

                              No charger in 2022? All phones should come with a charger!

                                the only strong point to sell this phone, is the promises of software update.

                                but Samsung is already up to date in this price range.

                                lcd screen, plastic materials, slow charging, mediocre ultrawide camera, water drop notch, this phone should be worth max 200$

                                    This phone isn't worth more than $250 even with all of it's "Nokia" bells and whistles

                                    HMD as always, heavily overpriced this

                                      I need a review like this for phones like Infinix, Tecno etc. These phones are more popular than Nokia.

                                        "Nokia's name still carries a certain weight with buyers, especially those in Europe. Some people open Amazon, type in Nokia, and get busy ordering."

                                        Maybe some former Nokia executive, who brought down the company, perhaps? I doubt whether anyone else does it.
