I remember BBK phones always had selfie filters as a USP and a super cheap price.
Now they sell mediocre phones at high prices, especially in markets like ours.
Reno and IQOO devices aren't even sold here unfortunately

Nokia fan, 26 Feb 2023Thanks a lot. How about your thoughts on oppo and Vivo devi... morenot all oppo and vivo phones are bad though, the reno7 5g and reno8 5g offers the similar price to the x30, while vivo offers v25 pro, also around at $500 range. those are better performing phones than 695, even though its mediatek.. if none of those sold in your region, then you could choose a samsung, but requires additional research.

Imbukwa, 26 Feb 2023Nokia under HMD global has weaknesses.
1. Poor customer ... more1. Actually customer care is quite good from them, especially in europe.
2. Which brand besides fairphone sells spare parts?
3. Half of this might be true, they release the updates slower then google, still faster then most.
4. Lower specs is hard to call it like that just because of a cpu, that is not only unfair, but also just talking without testing it's performance first.

If your friends laugh at you and your decision about buyin' certain brands, then you need better friends that also have some gray matter.
As for the Nokia devices, they are considered expensive by a bunch of tech wannabes.
I find them okayish, definetly on the pricier side in comparison to chinese "brands", but the comparison mostly forgets the important "non garbage OS" part, and sustainability. If you want to buy a no bloatware device with long term support, you have only two choices, nokia or google pixel or fairphone. Motorola (well, lenovo) are notoriously known for never updating their devices.
It you want nokia but do not have to much to spend, go for x20 (if big does not bother you) it flyes with android 13 and has a pretty good camera too. If not, g60 is quite good too, still not on android 13 tough.

1. Poor customer care.
2. No spare parts if phone gets spoilt. Maybe battery spare parts are available.
3. OS updates take forever to come and when they arrive they come with lots of bugs that HMD take forever to fix.
4. Its a low specs phone.

Nokia fan, 25 Feb 2023Is Nokia a better brand than Huawei? I really want to love ... moreRedmi would be the best choice. There's some bloatware and ads, but there are instructions online on how to disable these completely, it's a two minute process.
About Huawei, if you can find a p30, that phone was awesome. Best camera ever, quality build, fast processor, and last model to have Google services. Unfortunately, its software is outdated now, so it'll need a 3rd party ROM.
Nokia x30 is a beauty, but there are better choices at this price range, like the Pixel 6a. In my mind, the Nokia should be priced at 270.

Is Nokia a better brand than Huawei? I really want to love nokia phones but I don't wanna be teased among my peers who use iPhones and Samsungs.
I don't know which is the so called perfect brand to pick, for one I love stock android, for another, I want a phone that will be respected when I hold it. Please help (and I also think vivo and oppo aren't good value for money because they are overpriced)
Which brand is good enough and affordable with decent specs, preferably a brand that has less bloatware?
I'm a kid under 18 but I'm into smartphones and the smartphone world

Wish this had wireless charging and USB 3.1. That would further improve on the sustainability mantra as it would make the phone more future-proof and give an option to charge should the port break and the user is unable to replace.
Oh and the usual: MicroSD slot and headphone jack.
Nokia almost had it - pure, clean (best-looking Android skin imo) software, solid build quality, decent power and cameras, good battery and a compact-ish size. Also an OLED screen on a Nokia for once!
Motorola Edge 30 Neo is one step ahead of this phone because it's got the perfect form factor and wireless charging. One step closer to the perfect mid-ranger for me...

They actually resolve a lot of issues/ core issues... of corse no bugs, as they are at developers level.

Slower developement and updates because of not beeing a giant like google and "good quality profesionals" (Whatever that means... but for sure something you keep on talking about) are two very different things. You need to keep your receiving ear in check, it makes no sense.
Even so, they are actually not very slow at updating, they are okayish. There are other companies, as i already said, that even tough are huge in comparison, still don't update their devices as fast as hmd. Here i could count almost all android manufacturers. So if you do not like hmd just buy google, and stop complaining for no reason... by god, the entire conversation makes no sense.

Apart from that, everything else is similar.
You can decide what you purchase. It's your own money. Here the X30 is cheaper than the 6a (which is only grey imported by certain shops)

HMD global has failed. Too many complaints regarding Nokia X30, X10, G21,etc on their Nokia forums and HMD won't listen. The success of a business is when customers come back to buy the product again. But like HMD, they won't have returning customers.

No good has. Ever come from Android updates on Nokia phones or any modern phone
Android 4 phones from 2014 benefits as being updated too android 6 is good for app compatibility
so the heavy os smoothness performance loss is worth the trade off
Although the phone run sluggish it be able run any mainstream apps
Or even most modern games if only the hardware was better
But in the case of Android 8 phone updating too android 10 it's really taken its toll on my phone
Not only did performance insufferable at times less bad at other times
I have 16gb storage the os used 2gb but the updates taken away another Full 10gb of my storage I lost
So I only have 4gb storage left too work with for apps
This is not enough available storage
My smartphone middle of the rood not the best not the worsed either
Better then Nokia 2.1 not as good as Nokia 5.1
I have Nokia 3.1 crappy base version sadly
definitely say updates didn't do it any favours
possibly bugs existed before the updates but this kinda crap should be fixed before even releasing a phone on the original software

When HMD has good developers to employ Android on a new system (mobile) why can't these same developers can update Android quickly in a better way? Manufacturers can't launch good new mobiles without an efficient and effective Product Development team which includes good software professionals. If you say that this mobile Nokia X30 is excellent it goes without saying that HMD has good quality software professionals which contradicts your argument. The rest follows.
