User opinions and reviews

  • Cateran

One of the worst handset in my life...The touchscreen crap, phone laggy out of the blue, fingerprint reader is a hit or miss (sometimes stuck in a loophole) Honestly it is not midrange, it is low range mid level....

Its not Wi-Fi 6. (802.11ax) It just claims the ability to move to wi-fi 6 in the future even though its been out since "2023, June 28" its still not had the relevent update.

  • Mr. Google

It's a Mic or microphone. Used for phone calls and recordings. Even this Nokia G42 is having two.
