MakeNokiaGreatAgain, 25 Jun 2023It is 2023, and I am still using my Alcatel 1B 2020 with me... moreHave you thought about upgrading to the 2022 Alcatel 1b?

    I swear, this is going to sell like hot cakes.

      Great, but it unfortunately lacks eSIM compatibility.

        Anonymous, 28 Jun 2023Definitely a more powerful phone than the G22, but why not ... moreWhat difference does it make that the chip is made by Samsung?

        I would be interested in this phone if nokia unlock their bootloaders.

                Oh, G42 is also user-repairable and made from recycled materials. Nice!

                  You should consider buying Sony Xperia 5 V then, imagine that. Haha! With your phone usage you should be charging every two weeks or so :D That would be great tho..

                    Definitely a more powerful phone than the G22, but why not Snapdragon 4 Gen 1? Could it be because the chipset is made by Samsung foundry?

Nokia R22 instead of G22. Otherwise, it gets lost inside G Series lineup, most people just don't realize G22 is a user-repairable phone. That is, if Nokia / HMD plans to continue releasing such phones. Personally, I think they need to continue, but advertize and promote the concept more widely. Oh, and make spare parts for such phones readily available.

                        This is what the G22 should have been, it is pretty much identical but the G42 has a chipset that is actually worth using. I can't believe they are using the cursed ISOCELL JN1 sensor again, that damn thing is everywhere.

                          Minu, 27 Jun 2023Agreed, they actually managed to make their phones cheaper ... moreExacltly a perfect Nokia phone as it always was.

Having HD natively is a pleasure for the GPU and battery. I don't measure my battery backup in days, should be done in screen - on - hours. With my Motorola G50, which has SD480 and HD, i can easily do 12 hours on screen with intense usage (basically 2 full days). And is 2 years old

                                        And i think that this nokia will do even better
