I have nokia 6 that i had bought from KSA. I am using it in Pakistan. I have tested many carrier sim cards, phone shows signal strength very low, whereas on the other handset same network shows full signals.
Only ZONG network seems to be working fine, full signals ,4G connectivity all the time.
If it was a hardware issue , all sims shouldn't work properly.
I tired the code *#*# 4636 #*#* to change the network mode in 'phone information' tab.
currently it shows 'unknown' , when i change it to WCDMA preffered or wcdma/lte
other sim cards also shows full signal strength but only for few seconds , and then they are reduced to 1 or sometimes 2 bars only.
When i dial the code *#*# 4636 #*#* again to see the network mode, it again shows unknown. seems like changes were made for few seconds only.
I am currently on 8.1 oreo.
tried restarting after changing these settings , did factory reset nothing works.
please help me out.
Sorry for the bad English though.

I use it more than 6 months. If you can use it with Android 7 don't update it. It's great phone for taking picture and using social networks, but not that good for playing games. Don't install apps to full memory. It's become very slow. Instagram crash every day on Oreo, camera have bugs... Oreo have bugs on this phone. Don't update it. Before that Oreo update this was a best phone I ever buy. Battery is great, once I make 5 min call after its been more than half hours on 1% battery (battery saver mode / wifi off, mobile internet networks off, sound off, vibrations off, everything off), sound is great (it was little to loud on first Oreo versions). For those who need smartphone to call, send messages, takes photos this is more than great photos. Thanks for read :D

I always liked Nokia because of its powerful but after it migrated to other companies I don't fell that I am holding original Nokia phone. I have Nokia 6.1 with Oreo OS.
Pros- (1)Good Looking metal body
(2) Fast Charging
(3) good display colour reproduction
Cons-
(1) horrible sound quality either in headphone or in loudspeaker. Sometimes when I pick call loudspeaker turns on automatically but the loudspeaker symbol show's off. It can't beat Samsung 1500 range simple mobile.
(2) bad camera quality. Vivo has better quality in this range.
(3)it has 3 GB Ram but it not seems to be working like that. Redmi note 5 pro has better performance and camera quality. When I play PUBG it becomes very slow.
(4) battery draining too fast. You can't go for long drive without carrying power bank.

I think Nokia need to improve every aspect of the smartphone. Probably the latest versions might be performing better, but this Nokia 6 is a crap phone. Only good thing I find is it's strong housing.

I own this phone, and here's my opinion:
-Pros
°Very nice looking phone, looks like way more expensive (I've bought mine brand new before 2 months for 150€)
°It's getting updates really fast, but rumors are saying that it's not getting pie until late autumn
°Really fast phone for this price range
°Really good camera for this price range, especially in macro mode, I can tell you that, because I am bug lover.
°Loud speakers, my brother has Galaxy a5 2017, and my speakers are way too louder than his
-Cons
°It's very slick, and silicone case is must have
°Fingerprint is very slow (1-2sec) and often needs second attempt to unlock phone
°Still micro USB port
°Even through it supports fast charge, it comes with slow ordinary charger

I owned a N6 TA1039 for only 2 days. Bought it in my country (Chile) because packaging said Android 7.1.1, and i thought "just never update and i'll be fine", but when i bought the phone and turned it on... oh, ¡¡SURPRISE!!, it was Android V8.0!!! (i never updated it by my self, just turned it on and went to Developer options and selected the "don't update system" option). When i connected to internet though wifi, i realized of a few bad things:
1. Sometimes, whatsapp's notifications didn't sound in the phone until i turned the screen on.
2. Horrible ringtones sound quality thought loudspeaker. Headphones' sound was ok.
Although, when you plug in the headphones, and play ringtones in menu, they sound awful through loudspeaker, but only the first time; if you play it for second time and further, the loudspeaker will sound ok. You can test it for yourself (please remember to always connect headphones, and Dolby setting must be on). So i conclude that the guilty of this bug was the Oreo update, not a hardware problem. I say it again: i never updated the device, it seems to have been updated by my carrier (Entel Chile)
3. Notifications sound level was too loud. The only solution i found was setting a lesser strident sound. I read a lot of reviews that said this problem wasn't present in the phone's original ROM (Nougat 7.1.1).
4. When you turn off camera's AWB, and select artificial light setting (and others scenarios i don't remember) were yellowish. Simply useless... prepare to be bounded to AWB
________
So, my advice, if you still want to buy this phone, get it in 7.1.1 Nougat version, and NEVER update it.
Thanks

Nokia should seriously consider making all their new phones dual sim stand-by with a dedicated memory card slot micro sd.
