THE fact is that product quality differs between countries. If you buy this mobile from Europe or USA it will be really good. Display quality differs because, the same device uses different brands (quality) of displays with the same specifications from different manufacturers to cater different countries. The same applies to every hardware part but, can't be judged because, they aren't visible from outside. Education, knowledge and growth has no meaning because money has started to dominate everything that surrounds us. Somehow everyone survives by making compromises.

      Even Apple try to make premium product even tho they sell the brand, but Nokia says let's just engrave our brand name to the back of the phone and forget anything else!

            I replace my old oppo a74 5g with g42. g42 stock android is faster. smoother. better battery life. much better than oppo color os

            but g42 display is very cold/blue not good color calibration & touch response is not as fast as oppo a74. wiv battery saver on g42, refresh come down to 60hz & then problem begin when typin. type feels laggy n unresponse.
            This not problem on oppo a74. good touch response on 90 or 60 or battery saver on.
            g42 is good phone but crappy crappy screen

              Can someone who has the phone please confirm the network range that phone is able to catch the signal? I am staying in a place where Jio and Airtel has a very bad network coverage. Please someone help.

                    Higher isn't always better. Features like 120hz , 1080 p , very fast unnecessarily high touch sampling rate is impractical for budget chipset and battery . the gpu will wear out in 1-2 year . its why every flagship phone limited display res to 1080p . chinease manufacturer put it to boost sales nothing practical .budget lumia phone lasted so long (among other things) cz they put 240p display but the blck level , contrast were amazing .People still use lumia in 2022 . i have a 435(not sure of model) from 2014 , still works

This statement is issued by HMD on the basis of provision of original spaces by iFixit directly to end consumers. But, please clarify about whether every consumer from every country can reach out these original spares of HMD?............without which it is just like any other budget phone from every manufacturer in the market. Of course, I admit that HMD provides a battery pull tab which you can't find in most of the phones, nowadays.

Slow screen response issue is mostly fake and/or blown out of proportion. I don't own the phone but I'm 100% sure the screen is fine. Don't forget that it's a phone that you can fix yourself.

                                        So many other comments online are also complain about slow screen touch register response. Is anyone owning phone here & please confirm?

                                        Is battery life good? How loud is volume on loudspeaker?
                                        180 is good price for me n specs meet my need but if no good touch register then i no want to buy. Please owners can someone tell me
