forget to mention, i have 6GB version. first they launched 6Gb version with android 13, later this year they came up with 4GB version with android 14. only one with android 14 updates, customers who bought last year or this year early are abandoned. another thing on their box they claim you can repair it yourself which is also not true, its only valid for europe, not in india, but they mentioned it on box. its display is so silly, it first doesnt dim, it directly goes off.

maalicious, 05 Aug 2024Hi Abishek I have the same problem. I ordered directly from... morenothing, i complaint to consumer forum govt website, they called me and refused replacement. and in consumer forum website, they replied that we have called the customer and educated him how to use device and the device is working correctly. but my complaint wasnt about working of device but they sending me a used or refurbished device. they lied and fooled. all this when i ordered from official website. they send mobile from tamil nadu distributor rocky marketing. i suspect the sent me a display model from shop, the box is worn out, like someone has rubbed it on table, print on backside of box is unreadable. device itself have patches, scratches on side due to improper handing. i am currently using the device and display is lagging, if i type too fast it doesnt register all my keystroke. feeling cheated by the company. i will sell the device after 1-2 months. my mistake i went for nostalgia and brand name not product. contacted them on twitter about device not updating beyond dec 2023, they dont reply. read a few reviews on amazon, many people having same problem. my last nokia hmd device.

NeverPayOver1000eur, 26 Jun 2024RIP. Man Nokia has completely lost the plot. What was the p... moreLet's not forget why this phone has a 720p display with 5G support, because 1080p displays are rare in the sub-INR10000 price segment.
You can either get a Galaxy A05 (no fingerprint scanner and 5G with ancient eMMC storage and mediocre chipset), Moto G32 (no 5G, but has an ultrawide, a far mediocre chipset and a punch hole 1080p display) at what this phone sells for. There are Vivo, Honor and Xiaomi phones which are poor value too in this price segment, considering they seem to use the decoy effect to price their products in India.
Chinese brands force users who can't afford even the bottom-of-the-barrel smartphones to purchase more expensive phones, all thanks to paid reviewers, pushy salespeople and international fans on forums, that have zero idea of how decoy effect works in India. That's the unfortunate truth.
While this phone may have a set of compromises, but this is technically better value-for-money, along with better software support compared to the alternatives (includes Samsung 0x series) and the lack of unnecessary pre-installed apps.

RIP. Man Nokia has completely lost the plot. What was the point of going to Android to pick up this horrible naming convention and do absolutely NOTHING different to other manufacturers? Whilst using the most basic, entry-level cameras and charging this year's prices for last year's 720p displays.
This is literally a travesty. Everything about this model is terrible. It's clear as day to anyone with a brain why this company is going bankrupt and why they are laying off more developers than any other tech company. A perfect example of brain drain from an organization made by boomers who have no idea what people want in current tech.
YIKES.

Or you just go and talk nonsense everyehere you can? I actually buy hmd nokia devices because they are good, no gimmiks, no extra build in spyware and adaware, european ethics that i support and want to support. I jump ship tomorrow if hmd would release a device with meego os and get rid of google for good, but well, it is not possible.

the only reason people will buy a nokia is because of feeling nostalgic, reminiscing the past, all their memories come to life again and the tears they have shed throughout the years. other than that, nothing else. just my humble opinion. 🤣🤣🤣
