To be honest, I didn't like the fact that HMD is tryna bring the Nokia look in this model, and the 7s Gen2.
to my surprise, is that it's receiving a lotta attention from the Ladies in general..

I'm still waiting to see what's gon happen after layn my eyes on it.
The competition is tough this year for a handset to receive the hype.

    Jzgerardus, 21 Jul 2024I do like it, we can all agree that the performance just is... moreIt's not 'just isn't there' - it's not even there. And the update support not even close to barely making up for it.

      Carol-, 21 Jul 2024Never seen a 99 dolar phone receiving any kind of support ... moreA05: Am I a joke to you?

          Let me highlite it first, this is good all rounder device without performance specific either for gaming or something like that. Geeks always be a geeks which will ignoring this facts and will just take a vote from 1 specific aspect which is SOC. dont let your opinion down just because this kind of person.

          Let geeks concerning with their xiaomi, realme and other brands with their extremely cheap hardware and selling annoying Ad on their hyperOS and so on.

          Stop yelling and if the price tags doesnt fits you, simply the market itself weren't for you!

            Look at the resources HMD has at its disposal they have all the ingredients to kill it and this is what the produce for 500

            When you have D-tier brands like Cubot releasing something like the Cubot max 5 for $259

            How can an obscure brand offer those specs a brand that was stuck for years using mtk 6580 and p series chipset

            HMD you got do better

Cuz Moto is improving year by year. Previously, Moto's updates weren't frequent and had only one Android Update but now that has changed. Time for you to by Xiaomi 15 Ultra or 15S/15T Ultra which will be 8 Gen 4 based Oryon Cores Processor which is return of Kryo Cores instead of relying on Cortex A- Cores.

                Carol-, 21 Jul 2024Who said that they will sell in india? And who lied to you ... moreWell If you don't know, I am Tech Expert, I review all devices. Also, I am in this since 10 years now, so you can't say I know nothing. I know Flagships have better ISP which gives them advantage for Camera. Also, where I live, there isn't that much discount whereas in India & China, it's nearly little over a half price. You can't say 11R isn't good at cameras. It's very good. Not everything is about performance. That's why, I think 7 series needs Flagship ISP of latest Generation.
