To all those complaining about 90Hz screen of Nokia G42, iPhone 15 has a 60Hz screen, ha ha ha. I would like to redirect all the bad screen trolls to the Apple boards. Goodbye!

      juniorsenior, 17 Sep 2023Just got the phone in pink AMAZING Considering its HD+, how is the Screen?
      Pixel Density, Colours, Typing experience, YouTube experience?

        I don't know anything about the quality of individual hardware parts of the phone, its display quality in particular, as I haven't purchased or used the phone yet. But, on paper, the device looks good for its specifications and for its asking price. I would have appreciated the device a lot, if HMD employed a FHD display. The rest of all its specifications are really good for its asking price, if and only if the quality of individual hardware parts are good enough. Needless to say anything about the software part of it, as it employs bloat free Stock Android.

                Easy repairability = the way forward
                While it was the most normal thing in the world for phones 20 years ago

                Nokia is following Fairphone so thumbs up 👍🏻

                  The post didn't mention "gaming was fine". The post said this issue isn't about gaming. It's about general touch response and typing. This means gaming isn't part of the discussion because it's not been tested for gaming.
                  Not everybody is a 16yr old that games. Some of us are older mature people.
                  The touch response on g42 is very bad. People that are saying it is good probably don't even have the phone themselves and have never even touched it lol

You say touch response in gaming is fine but not good while typing. How is that even possible? Touch rate while gaming is frequently even higher than while typing a message. So problems must also arise while gaming, but you say gaming is fine. Stop embarrassing yourself, you fake troll.

                      So many ANONYMOUS trolls spreading fakes about poor touchscreen of Nokia G42. Give me a single TRUSTED review where this fake problem is even mentioned. You won't be able to. Don't worry trolls, nobody reads your fake posts. Once again Nokia produced a perfect flawless phone. No wonder Nokia G42 is selling like hot cakes. Bravo Nokia!

                            I found somewhere that speaker loudness is bad (max loudness78.5 dB)?

                            Does anyone who owns this model have anything to say about it?

                            Thanks.

                              Criticism of hmd cheap display underneath the protection glass, which has bad touch sample rate. So bad that typing messages using the keyboard is horrible experience. This is main criticism. Nothing to do with gaming. Gaming is not being discussed. Discussion is bad touch sample rate and screen response. Hmd using cheap display which is bad experience long and short term.

                                    They've used cheap parts and cheap display, and covered the cheap display in gorilla glass 3. This causes poor touch responses because the initial screen underneath the gorilla glass is low quality, and the gorilla glass will further cause more touch response issues (because the display underneath is poor).

                                    Try typing posts and messages on the g42 yourself, and let us all know how you get on, because it's a poor experience and anyone saying it isn't either hasn't tried the phone yet, or isn't comparing it to other phones in the same price category, and even comparing it to G60, which was same price at launch. G60 display and touch response is very very good and standard

How can you even comment when you've never even owned the phone? 90% of all the users feedback have complained that there is something wrong with the touch response and its slow and laggy, especially when using it on 60hz. I'd trust actual owners and users than the apparent fictitious "highly rated" reviewers that you've imagined you've seen.

And we're supposed to believe some anonymous trolls, who saw a 90Hz screen and without knowing what it is and how it works, tediously regurgitate the fake mantra that the screen is bad. Yeah, right, all the reviews give it high marks, 4 out of 5, 8 out of 10, yet somehow the screen is terrible? Ffs, Iphone 14 has a 60Hz screen and no-one complains, because it's almighty Apple. Give it a rest, dumb trolls, you never had the phone in the first place.
