Big letdown, I wouldn't believe the bad reviews hoping it would be fine as an Android One phone... Wrong. After a reset the Play Store crashes on its own with only Google's apps installed, very sad.

      jahid007, 09 May 2023It has an extra SD card slot. You can insert a 32 GB SD car... moreYes I have realized putting a SD card into the smartphone is the best way around the storage problems however I have heard Nokia is one of the only brands that don't support apps running of a SD card slot

      For some reason or another Nokia king of getting into lawsuit or on the bad side of customers having poor trustpoilt rating

      Ideally I just buy a 128gb SD card as cheaping out on storage always ends up later realized this wasn't enough storage

      There is Samsung pro endurance or SanDisk extreme pro endurance am not sure what one is better

        unkownuser, 01 May 2023You are right, this phone can only handle android 9.If I had of known better it won't of have had any OS updates as it turns out storage space is more important than OS updates for me

        I can't restore this smartphone too Android 8 that I really wish I was able too do just because how much of more storage was lost doe too OS updates taking up storage space

        Android 8 Is just fine if the complaints of interest security come too mind there is always Kaspersky internet security

        Am no longer a fan of AndroidOne as I don't like the way Google rule's the smartphone market and there is know conflicts of interest with security and financial interest around apps store's I have grow a deep dislike for Google

        Other app store like aptoide uptodown appgallery all have a place in the smartphone market a lot of game developers are also developing ways around this problem making there own apps hopefully they put them one a trusted app store

          As is , the phone is fine, just do not EVER think you can add apps to it. Do not EVER hope to multi-task, it will just freeze, requiring a restart to get any control. I will not comment on the camera etc as this is a below entry phone, but I have to use one at work and it vexes me like nothing else in this world. I made the mistake of adding whatsapp to it and when I enable wireless when whatsapp is open, the phone just loses its marbles. The same with running the built in browser, you open it, run a marathon before you can actually use it. AVOID unless you have no other choice. I then added wireshark in the mix and found this is a privacy nightmare. Android ONE is NOT your fiend!!

                  Got an Android 12 update today smoothly on this Nokia 3.1 device. Please fact check if everyone else does the same then update this Gsm page. That annoying screen unlock delay on Android 11 now finally disappeared along with this 12 update. Thank you Nokia for still willing to look after this middle-low range product line.

                    the same spec as my moms vivo v5. but the final update runs android 7. while nokia 3.1?? gets android 10??

                      Is there any way too rollback updates

                      It turns out the os updates take up a full 10gb of storage space the os added too from 2gb os +10gb updates size leaving only 4gb space least

                      Seriously Nokia made this smartphone unusable after all of the updates no storage space for apps very sluggish phone

                      Any suggestions?

                          qj2022, 18 Oct 2022Yes I would definitely not recommend this phone for gamers,... moreIt's is a very sluggish smartphone in day too days usage

                          Mine is 16rom/2ram
                          Very limited storage space as OS only leaves 3gb left too work with after updates

                          Definitely frustrating too use even if gaming isn't a hobby as is very slow even for basic usage

                              I'm using this phone since may 2019 (3 years)
                              when it was new it was smooth but after a while it started to have issues like delay and lots of lagging having a ringing phone with black screen etc.
                              Battery life starts to decrease after a while and storage space fills up quicly
                              the only good thing is that the bulid quality is great have drop it millions of times and it still works
                              Rathen than that i regret buying it and wish i had done a more careful research
                              All in all i dont recoment this phone to anyone especially in 2022 exept if someone pays you to get it off his hands

                                I am using it since November 2018. Still, from the very beginning the phone shows very slow performance, the touchscreen doesn't react always properly, sometimes causing a serious delay when trying to answer a call! Not happy with that one.... I wouldn't recommend it!

                                    Plus having AndroidOne on Nokia 3.1

                                    From a design choice point of view I like the Nokia 3 more it is a better size & has a home bottom in the bottom Bezel also has stock Android

                                      If the Nokia 3 is a masterclass on how not to build a phone, this one is the exact opposite. For it's price it's an amazing deal. Almost all the problems of the Nokia 3 (terrible Fps issues and bad battery life) are not an issue here.

                                        Sin, 02 Jan 2022I got a nokia 3.1 smartphone brand new for 50 pound 2gb ram... moreJust a update on my smartphone
                                        after about half a year

                                        I learned slow charging speed is not a bad thing its in fact more healthy for your smartphone then fast charging

                                        slow charging a good thing avoid fast charging do not use them
                                        fast changing phones are made too have short life

                                        The battery life far surpassed all xpectations & is still going really strong
                                        on top of that the phones has been setting in a box brand new for like 4 years before i even buy it meaning if you got this smartphone in 2018 it would of been even better still

                                        The camera is really good but as storage is small i don't really take many pictures
                                        all of my complaints with this smartphone are with storage & ram

                                        This smartphone is very well optimized for it's hardware and runs a lot better then it should it can punch for punch above it's weight
                                        it don't throttles or overheat either

                                        but it turns out android even stock android is really heavy and ram hungry also ever app i instill
                                        use ram in the background
                                        sadly i was unable too buy the 32rom/3gb version of this smartphone ( sold out )

                                        you need 2gb for most games what they don't tell you is apps in the background running also are fighting over that ram

                                        This turned into a massive problem as games grow bigger and update so a game that run just fine at the start of this like now ram bottleneck means sometimes games run out of ram freeze up and force close because there badly optimized

                                        Being a gamer a phone that can't game anymore is obsolete too me am mad game devs don;t care about budget gamers and keep making games stupidly hard to run with game updates

                                        This smartphone is the perfect example of really good software alone is not good Enough for gaming even if i close all apps in the background when gaming the ram usage is maxed out games run fine in back start of this year now it struggles
                                        This why gaming advice is too buy more then you need so you grow into it

                                        Good
                                        camera battery software android 10 stock android Nokia smartphone health app
                                        good power saver mode screen res 720p better for budget phones then 1080p easier too run a lower res screen then higher one ips screen with bezels optimized software
                                        this smartphone didn't slow down much at all does not or overheat either throttle

                                        bad
                                        ram & storage are bad
                                        low spec processor
