    Private Pyle, 03 May 2023Fair point, fair point. I'm just angry because that So... moreNo worries. On this platform I'm startlingly used to people crying because flagships don't cost 300$ lmao.

        Android 12 with 4 OS updates is their way of saying it'll only get 3 Android OS updates.

        Android 14 beta is already out.
        NOKIA is the only well-known company I know that is dumb enough to release an Android 12 device in 2023.

        I didn't want to lose hope. I was on standby buying Samsung Galaxy devices waiting for NOKIA to get back in their game. But now, I've lost all hope. NOKIA is a joke now. 😔

          PhoneFreak45, 03 May 2023More expensive. Would you rather 550$? If it had a 6 gen 1,... moreFair point, fair point. I'm just angry because that SoC has been out for quite a while and literally nobody has put it in a phone yet. Qualcomm promised a decent (around 30-40%) performance increase in CPU & GPU power over the 695, and it's irritating me that you can't buy a phone with one. The weird part is that the SD 4 Gen 1 was announced around the same time and it's pretty common in low-end devices now. Sorry if I came off as whiny, lol.

                        IP69K? Okay, this is a major upgrade from the XR20. Heck, not even the Samsung Galaxy XCover6 Pro has such a rating.

                            Looks like Nokia bets on the reputation of their durable phones from the past, like 3310.

                              So uh... what happened to the SD 6 gen 1? Yet another company using the old 695, ugh.
