Carol, 14 Dec 2021Yeah they broke a promise and people have the right to rage... moreTrue Nokia has been made look really bad and yeah they should have done better promise was broken but i can understand why
However its not only Nokia fault LightCo that helped Nokia make the camera should be blamed too also google should take some blame as androidONE is google own software
This is not the first time Nokia made a good phone and run into problems with there partners the Nokia Lumia phones but i don't think noika was owned by HND global back then
Nokia made windows phone however Microsoft didn't supported the os for long and when windows phone falled then Microsoft bring windows 8 then even worse 10 to pc i was horrified
I do think Nokia good brand overall i think Nokia is one of the better brands out there
I ended up buying the Nokia 3.1 brand new for 50 pound a few days ago its first phone Nokia branded phone i bought
i review the phone soon on its page

I've considered this phone for of a while. Last news and comments discouraged me. Finally l think i will stick on my nokia 8. I think I will flash a ROM based on android 11 and let's roll...

Aadrian, 12 Dec 2021If Nokia would skip the Android 11 on a cheaper phone I cou... moreYeah, they really blew it with this one. They lost a loooot of confidence. But then again, they would have also loose a lot of confidence if android 11 would have been a mess on it. They talk about the camera like they actually made it to work great, they never managed to do it, i do not know how way worse android 11 would have been. But if they think the camera is working great now, i do not want to think what "bad" means for them... Anyway, there are a lot of lies surrounding this camera problems and they don't come out clean about it. If they loose the nokia name, well they are to blame. This days a company should discuss it's problems with the customer. Hack even apple an their antena gate came out with the problem convincig it's m'on customers that it is ok to have no signal as long as you have a plastic cover...well i never said they were actually doing something about the problem :)... but hmd always acted like the software camera has no issues and this is where they lost, ignoring problems won't make them go away...

Sin, 10 Dec 2021Thank you so much for helpful reply
1 true pixel phones... moreYeah they broke a promise and people have the right to rage agains. Well hmd lost a lot of people with this decision, even when a lot of them maybe never owned nokia 9, and with the bad publicity they receive right now, will be a hard road back to where the were a year ago. I frankly do not care that much about android 11. 12 would have been something else, but well nokia 9 was never meant to receive the 12.
Yes, my nokia 9 is fast and kicking like is new, besides the battery that is starting to show it's age, but for the moment nothing to make me angry, still get one day battery life with my way of using it.
I decided to take their offer, so i bought the x20 for 178€, a steal and a nice Christmas gift for my wife.

If Nokia would skip the Android 11 on a cheaper phone I could understand. As much as I'm a Nokia fan, this is simply not cool. But it is what it is, my Nokia 9 still is super fast and flawless.

1.If you buy the device now, you might receiv... moreThank you so much for helpful reply
1 true pixel phones do have a newer flagship but if i was go google pixel i get the
google pixel 4 it's great value for money also it make more sense just have new 1 phone
2 nokia deal well the nokia pureview 9 is still nokia best smartphone snapdragon 845 & oled screen there is no nokia smartphone has made to date that can match it
the nokia 9 pureview only held back by overly complex camera
nokia 9 on android 10 is fine and it's still supported so it be a down grade buy any x nokia phone
The deal is not good if you want one phone at a time nokia 9 pureview owners have no clear upgrade path that makes sense only trade offs
3 I try to future proof my smartphones as much as possible after end of life
custom rom is way to go i hope the unlock the boot-loader can be unlocked on nokia phones thanks for the help
Much like nokia I agree if a phone can't support a os well it should not be updated
working really well on android 10 is better then android 11 with bugs and problem's
but I can understand why people are mad android one phones should get 2 android updates at least and its nokias flagship phone is the only phone nokia can't update
huge thanks :)

sin , 08 Dec 2021i just heard the bad news no android 11 for nokia 9 purevie... moreHallo sin.
1.If you buy the device now, you might receive a discount, but it won't make any sense, you pay for two devices in one shot, with the money you would probably be able to pay for a newer flagship. (Pixel device per example).
2. I have an email of the discount already waiting for me to use it, i do not see an expiration date. But the discount will only be made for the country you have selected and for a specific number and models of nokia devices. I have discount for 3 devices: Nokia x20, xr20 and x10. So there won't be any discount for the future devices. If you'd like to wait till Nokia 9 does not work anymore the discount might still be valid, but the discounted devices will old and most probably not produced anymore. So yeah...
3. You need to write to hmd for this one. They might help you to unlock the boot-loader, you might need tough to be a bit insistent with the request.

Anyway, i heve NEVER said that "only people who never owned a Nokia 9 were represented here". Am also not responsible for what you understand, read a comment 40 times before making claims, if you don't understand.
I also owe the phone for more then 2 and a half years and had none of your problems besides the usual that was already know from the beginning: camera slow, fingerprint useless. Camera bothered me from time to time, i never used the fingerprint in any device till this one, so that problem never affected me as a person. But to come here and start exagerating and advise everyone to not buy nokia because of your experience, you must be quite a catch in real life. Anyhow i believed you till i didn't...

It strikes me that only 4 days ago you were complaining that only people who never owned a Nokia 9 were represented here. Now you have someone who had the phone for 2 years and still it is not good enough for you? Please make up your mind.

Tell me one brand that will repair your device for free when it's out of warranty, name one... Exagerate much? At least they would repair it. Others would adivse you to use the garbage can. Not that hmd are perfect, cause they are far from being great, so perfect not even close, but some people... i mean...really?

Exactly 2 years ago I ordered a Nokia 9 PureView smartphone. From the beginning the camera did not work, the fingerprint scanner was shabby and face recognition also didn't work properly.
A week ago the Wi-Fi stopped working; no Wi-Fi network was detected any longer. As I purchased the phone just 2 years ago, l tried to get it repaired by Nokia. However, Nokia refused to repair under warranty; only prepaid repair was offered. I contacted Nokia support, but the only thing they offered was a sorry for not being able to repair my Nokia 9 under warranty. That really helped a lot (not!).
My advise: never, I repeat, NEVER buy anything from Nokia. I hope my experience will be a warning to you.

august, 23 Nov 2021i went to the comments jist to help me and just to know if ... moreIf you look with care you can see there are some (and mostly same) here that always appear when there is something about Nokia devices, mostly to bash them. Quite a lot of this people, if not all, never owned the device nor did they used it, so to ignore them would be good. If you want opinions from more real users seach somewhere else, here aren't to many.
As for me, all i can tell you about the device is that it has it's strength and also it's weaknesses. The camera is good but will cause some annoyanceses because the background processing will take some time. The more pictures you take, the longer it will take to process them. The fingerprint reader is not really usefull, 80% miss, it actually makes no sense to use it. Some claimed tough that they have no problems with it since android 10 second update. Well, i am not among the lucky ones. The battery could be bigger... In rest the device (more then 2 years old) is still as fast as the first time i bought it, has a superb screen, pictures are amazing when you manage the zen patience, design is spot on, screen is perfect in every way, and is not a godzilla of a device like the ones this days. Signal and call quality is also worth to be mentioned as they are really good, something that i need and care for and is mostly ignored by a lot of competition , especially eastern brands. Android is clean, zero bolatware, well if you do not count google services, water and dust resistance are also not to be ignored, this guy will last for a while if you submerge it in water. And the cherry on top of the cake it is the unique design, youp people might ask you what is that thing. What is clear to be told, if you want one, you need to think about the camera and fingerprint, as they are important for some people.

When will Android 11 come out for this device?
Just kidding... i have a feeling we will have to wait for another 2 weeks at least... after i spoke with one of their support team. I do not know how they manage to do it, but a lot of their support team members have no idea of what they are talking about. Of course this does not happens just to hmd but it is a global spread. 15 years ago, this people would have been way better trained and the expectations of their abilities were higher. Anyway the person told me they are on the final stage of testing and should be out by the end of november. Well, i have no high hopes on that...
