Performance was mostly because of an light weight OS that was well done and nokia ingeniering. Nice Times those where ram and cpu importance came out below innovation, performance, features, camera and design.
Now i realise how chinese brands, knowing nothing but, reverse engineering and copy paste, really washed out peoples minds to think that nothing matters as long as cpu and ram are there....

Am not a fan of hole punch or notched screen

I have a Nokia 3.1 myself that I got on sale new for just £50 half a year ago

The umidigi bison I mentioned does have a better ip rating then the Nokia ip rating water proofing
It's also ment too be durable also

I actually recommend them too family members as I find bargain on phones for them

I only have hands on experience with umidigi a9 pro
8gb ram version from a few years ago

It only cost £135 yet the build quality of the phone is excellent still runs smooth today battery life still good
As well

It's the too good to be true phone that actually real and it's lasted and survivaed for years as well it's been so reliable
It's something else

It's really just what phone modal can be found at what price point

Your phone probably has some cheap camera sensor(this one has same sensor as galaxy s22) , low endurance battery , cheap ips . If you add all the costs x30 pricing makes sense

The Nubia I mentioned could be used with water proof rugged case and screen protector

If we limited too rugged phone
A more apples too apples compassion in it's own class

UMIDIGI Bison GT 2 5G beats the Nokia x30 in nearly every way even is a stock android as well
Yes Nokia got stock android competition

This matches being rugged and benchmarks slightly better than the Nokia on benchmarks and has 8gb ram

This is only a £240 phone hints Nokia overpriced for what it is

Only advantage the Nokia x30 has over it is oled screen but reading the comments some people actually prefer IPS screen because oled hurts there eyes for some reason

Wait this silly price back too £400 online
Nokia so not competitive

ZTE Axon 30 Global Version 5G Smartphone
Has Snapdragon 870 8gb ram for £300

So pay £400 for Snapdragon 695 & only 6gb ram

Seriously woke up Nokia
Pay more too get much less ?? Really Nokia

But I guess making recycle... moreThe fact that now Samsung as the largest android based manufacturer adopts more recycled materials in its flagship series, means it's something that it does live in the community, and something that manufactures want to show to their customers and future customers. Fairphone is all about environmentally friendly manufacturing and source winning, and that's their main USP, Nokia adopted recycled materials in various ways and now Samsung is next. I hope more manufactures will follow. I'm hard headed that Chinese OEMs will follow but one can hope.

I know features of this phone are contested, but let's appreciate the fact that (processor-wise) this is the closest phone in terms of performance to the only flagship they had in the last 4 years, the Nokia 9

Rather it's a message to other household product ,food companies that "even the most luxurious , high tech gadgets can be made from recycled material " 🙂 so they can be motivated to adopt more eco friendly practices (even it costs more)

swaraj, 03 Feb 2023"Metals, especially aluminum, tend to degrade after ea... moreThere is no virgin plastic and you talk about a smartphone while there are tones of plastc put into smartphone industry. Anyway, it is quite clear that you do not understand recycling, how it works and how much it means for enviroment while loosing absolutly nothing in propertis, especially when we talk, smartphones. It is not like they melt the same peace of plastic 100 times before they make the phones, so that the quality degrades to a point of no quality.
Also plastic is made out of petrol combined with a lot o other very unfriendly chimicals, so yeah, is better when they use it more then once and for different things, depending on need and quality, instead of creating new and new again. Sorry but you really have no idea what you're talking about, and you need to learn and understand recycling.

That means nothing, also does not mean that nokias are made with the last quality aluminium that can't be recycled anymore. You missed the whole point in the article and you also missed when they said that there is a 95% less energy consumption vs. Creating new alloys. Anyway, have even touched the devices? Or you just blame like Tom?

Copied from this website : https://sciencing.com/advantages-disadvantages-of-recycling-metal-13636634.html

Plastic becomes very weak after recycling . 50 gm of Virgin plastic for a smartphone won't ruin the planet ... selling billions of cheetos is plastic bag for cheap price will .

swaraj, 03 Feb 2023I'm not saying its irrelevant. Practical sustain... more1 and 2.
I do not quite understand your problem with recycled aluminium, do you understand what that is? Quality wise you do not compromise nothing while recycling aluminium.
Is actually wired to think that reshaping a metal into another form will compromise it's properties. That will mean, that jewellers give the people only subpaar quality because they mostly reshape old jewellery or coins. They should only use pure gold\silver and remake the whole nine yeards of mealting and combining pure gold\silver and whatever others with zinc or Copper or Palladium or whatever other metals to make them hard and sturdy enough for wearing... Please don't tell me that you think gold rings are pure gold?...
That whole proccess is a lot more wasting then melting and reshaping what has already been put together.
How could a tech company order a car company to use recycled materials? What a childish clame. Anyway, as far as i know, there are car companies that use recycled materials for some parts. Where are tones of aluminium used on cars? Besides wheals, that are not really aluminium because they mixed with a lot of other metals to be able to stay in shape. And what this has to do with one another? Phones are sold with millions, every few months, nothing gets even close to that. This is not about reducing industry to one bit, it is about reducing phone manufacturing trash to eco friendliness. Tones of tech waste less is better then doing absolutly nothing about it.
By your claim, everything is b.t so nobody should do nothing about it, we should all be ignorant and embrance donald's stupidty.

3. there you are right, and is actually a good solution. As far as i know, they are sold with chargers in less privileged Countries at the same price, or even cheaper then in europe, so they actually tought about it, but well, your solution would be a better one. Even tough i could imagine that some rich people might still not give a darn about the extra price and still buy devices with chargers even tough they do not need one. I my self have an 18w charger from nokia 9, am actually glad that they did not deliverd a charger, i have enough of those.

Carol, 02 Feb 2023Good points, but Enviroment is actually vital and is really... moreI'm not saying its irrelevant.

Practical sustainable practice when making smartphone. :
good battery , more charging cycle
-gg victus so screen (the most fragile part of smartphone) last longer .
- good mobo
-longer updates

Impractical misleading eco friendly feature of this phone :
- recycled aluminum. It's utter nonsense to compromise on quality of skeleton (the frame)of a 200 g smartphone that costs 500 dollars . Like how much can 50 gm of high quality aluminum can impact nature adversely?? Its just a market trick .

If the corporate are really concerned about environment. They should tell car companies ,train cars manufacturer,shipyard to use recycled material . Cz they use so much aluminum o(r any other material )

- no official charger being sold for the phone . It's true people have a lot of charger lying around at home . BUT NOT ALL PEOPLE DO . Besides 3rd party charger have quality compromises and may harm the phone . So they should make 2 types of box . 1 . That has charger and cost more 2 . That doesn't have charger and cost less

Tom209, 02 Feb 2023Fair points you've raised in your previous responses, ... moreOf course the best for enviroment would be to sell only hardware and let the user decide for everything. But the whole tech world worked against that, little by litte until we ended up in this mess where laptops have solderd RAM and storage. Battery removal is vital for another one to two years or so, but it is the second most important, without updates, charging a device is not enough, and how many people use a device for 10 years or more? But yeah, i am ok with the idea of changing the battery, but there is more enviromental friendlyness into making the battery sustainable, to last for about 5 to 6 years, after that, there is all down-hill anyway. Depending on each person views about what sustainable means and minding the fact that batteris are very unfriendly to the enviroment, you can decide what is better, to make more batteries or better batteries?
Yeah apple is the culpit of all this b..t that happens this days, it is really sad, but hey they are forced now to sell spare parts, which is something, but well... not enough, as they produce even more soon to be garbage.
I like the idea of Circular, while is quite nice to have it in private segment, i think that it will benefit a more in an Enterprise enviroment. So yeah, others should do it too, it is a far fatched idea tough. Some brands might see the potential but i do not know, cause licensed for Enterprise device will cost more and would have to be very clean. The trend is tough th eother way arround, the cheaper the better, and not to many manufactures care about security or privacy or enviroment.
