Anonymous, 03 May 2023Who buys this kind of phones, surely does not care about 4K... moreAverage consumers don't care about such things. They just want something that works for them without much problem.

Private Pyle, 03 May 2023So uh... what happened to the SD 6 gen 1? Yet another compa... moreIf the rumours about Sony Xperia 10 V adopting Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 processor next week unveiling (11 May with Xperia 1 V flagship) are true after a lot of leaks of uncertainty between 10 V will adopt either 6 Gen 1 and Dimensity 8000 series, Xperia 10 V will be the first device to use SD 6G1 and first Sony device to use a chipset that other companies haven't use it at all, and that's will be a very long time since Sony will have that distinction.

That's the reason why I got a Nokia 8 for $200 instead of saving an extra $500 to buy a Galaxy S8 with the same chipset and worse design

Private Pyle, 03 May 2023The AOSP camera app (Camera2) is pretty close to a default ... moreThe auto mode is unremarkable. But Google camera surprisingly works best in Nokia's phones compared to Motorola's from experience.
Fortunately there's a better pro mode in their camera app, which would be useless if you have no idea on how to use it.

I love the look of XR20 main camera. Different and unique. Main camera of XR21 just like other midrange phone. I've waited for XR21 cuz lack of SOC on XR20. But i guess i'll keep on XR20 for my daily outdoor driver. Hope XR22 will be looks like XR20 with better inside. Just, why would we put a phone under high-pressure water ?

AnonD-546724, 04 May 2023Exactly. HMD isn't a phone manufacturer.
They use ... moreThe only thing HMD does better than other brands is keeping a brand identity, despite being outsourced to ODMs. I'm disappointed with their choice to go with a generic corner camera island, since I prefer the oblong pill island Nokia used in their earlier phones, which is now being used by Sony devices manufactured by Foxconn and Sprocomm respectively.
Also the original Nokia company itself, outsourced all of their flip and slider phones, as well as their CDMA phones to Taiwan's Arima, Longcheer, Microcell (Finland-based, but located in China) and Compal, where all the other brands (old Motorola, Samsung, LG, Sanyo, Sony Ericsson etc) outsourced each and every model of their phones to the respective ODMs mentioned.
Motorola gives competitive products, but lack an identity, which we should take into account, if you considered how good their earlier phones were.
Also the fact that other Nokia licensees (RichGo, Flipkart, Honeywell and Off Global) are Nokia in brand name only, and not by their vibe.
