            Hard to believe that Nokia is no more.. Goodbye

              I wouldn't recommend this smartphone even to my worst enemy.

                Great phones for great price not everybody needs a 1000+ eur device and not everybody can afford it either so price and specs are awesome.
                There arent much beter devices at simmilar pricing and noone of that comes from Google, Samsung, Sony or Apple.

                  Hope they fixed the camera picture quality because on Pulse it's terrible zoom into the image and it's all blocky and looks like something taken on a LG in 2013

                        iBOT007, 25 Jul 2024Thank you, HMD for your valuable contribution to e-waste. 🚮How? For simple use, these would be fine. Seems like your outrage must be solely on Unisoc chip since the other specs aren't trash anymore like 720p res, 60hz etc.

                          Anna, 25 Jul 2024Clean and Stock Android without any skin or bloatware was t... moreAt the time when i got Redmi note 5 Ai Dual Cam it cost 170 euro while the same specs at the same time as option for me to get was Nokia 6.1 Plus that cost 350 euro.

                          Stock android but what in the end of the day that double price got was 1 OS update more then my Xiaomi budget phone that went from 8.1 to 9 even tough in India as note 5 pro it went from android 8 to 8.1 and then to 9 so basically still 2 OS updates. This Nokia 6.1 Plus went from 8.1 to 10 So not really worth spending more on that HMD brand

                            Why is it important to still talk about 5G like it's something special ? It's basically special when there is no 5G as it's already a rare thing in modern new phones not to have 5G.

                            Also isnt Unisoc a Chinese chip brand ? The panic over China spying but then using the Chinese chip ?

                                      Keep going hmd and feed your haters' mouth with this devices.

                                        HMD is testing waters.
                                        True that it was them who manufactured Nokia phones, yet nobody knew HMD as a standalone company for phones.
                                        It seems they are starting slow.

                                        But I feel, HMD has 2 unique features with which it can gain the buyers confidence.
                                        First - Provide software support at par with the competition ( especially better than Xiaomi)
                                        Second - keeping software clean will be a great thing to do.

                                        And Third important things is to get the pricing right in a price conscious market of India.

                                        Unique design language anyways makes HMD stand out of the lot.
