I doubt between Nokia X30 and G60 but I think to go for the G60 it is cheaper and for me enough capable for what I desire to use it for. But the X30 is by far a very nice phone especially this white color.

For your information Nokia will never match the cheap prices of the Chinese phone.. Nokia was rated Platinum on EcoVadis because :
1. Throughout the supply line until customer service the workers are paid and treated fairly.
2. Nokia/HMD only approved the use of raw material from non-conflict countries to avoid forced slavery and child labor from war torn countries.
3. Nokia/HMD manufacturing wastes are treated with care towards the environment.
All of this are costly and no other manufacturer (Not your xiaomi/realme, not even Apple nor Samsung) except Fairphone achieved the Platinum award
That is why we never expect such low prices from Nokia.
Low prices of Chinese phone does not mean u are getting a bargain, rather it means other people (poorly paid workers, child labors etc) and the environment are paying for your phone.
Don't be selfish and ignorance. If you can't pay the Nokia premium don't bash. Nokia/HMDF is making the world a better place for you and your children

Nokia phones surprisingly never put a bad impression on the customers, especially when you buy the models with higher configurations, contrary to what GSMArena users are bashing about. They may not be the best from value perspective, but much better than most brands in terms of user experience.
On a side note, most people I know have replaced their Samsung J and prime series phones with Nokia Android phones

I've never seen any modern OS using true black as their colour scheme (only a tiny portion of the screen is black in Samsung phones when using Dark mode), so the display is on most of the time. That may be the reason why Huawei, Xiaomi, BBK, Apple phones etc don't have true blacks despite using Samsung, LG and BOE AMOLEDs. No matter how good the display can be, they can't make use of it properly

AnonD-546724, 29 Nov 2022I'm gonna put it as simple as I possibly could, for yo... moreFirst of all, if someone wants to support a european brand against a chinese one, does not mean fanboy, fanboy are you with trolling and spreading the same b..it everywhere you can. Coming here and acting like a smarta.. while saying absolutly nothing. Oh, you tought Nokia users are blind about ODM's? More like you found a random article about it, and think you found the fauntain of knowlege, while everyone went pass that a year ago. Even that article, that is already old story, cannot pin-point which part is ODM and which is not, but is enough for you to bash here and there. Most of their new devices have no trace of ODM, and even if it did, what ist the Problem? As long as the company respects it's Principles, i find no big issue into it. The only company that does not use ODM's is Fairphone, and even they outsource manufacturing.For a company to have it's own factories is something of the past. Especially with the damaind mass of cheap.
Nokia stood for innovation and hmd does "not", you say. Nokia 9 might have been a disaster for you, but it was quite a daring device i wander how would they be able to innovate with people like you and chinese devices floading the market. But anyway, tell me a brand that innovates? Flexible screens were tested by NOKIA a long time ago, i talk about it, cause that is pretty much the only innovation besides the niche-level Fairphone. Thank apple for that by the way. Manufactures that did innovate, had to stop doing it, to be able to survive or are plain gone now. For that you have to thank the mass, yourself included.
Nokia took a bet on windows phone but are for sure not gone, as they do allot of innovation in Enterprise and Mobile networks region, also, audio related innovations and drones. So, for your second ignorance, nope, NOKIA Corporation is not dead, is actually one of the most successful Corporations in Europe.
hmd bought nothing, the claim itself sound so so amateur like. They Licensed the name and Patents under predefined conditions for 10 years. Also NOKIA itself as a company holds shares in hmd global. They also sell hmd devices on their Official site, no matter the region. So what was that? Slapping only a Name on ODMs? You have no idea what an ODM is, how it works and the difference to what you think it is, First learn before screaming here and there, while talking absolutly nothing.
As for hmd CEO left at the time you're writing, troll much? I mean, some bullcrapp of yours, you can make it sound like "the truth" for people willing to listen to some random person that trolls nokia comment sections, but at least this claim should make them think twice. You have no idea why one left, for longer then 1 Month now, and why there is a problem puting another in Charge, you have no idea what happens inside, yet you talk.
Less talking more learning, thats what i always advise. But why would you resaerch and learn, when you can talk whatever useless tought that comes to your mind, right? I mean, it is way easier.

A shame of a phone for $500, who would go for this trash in their sane mind? I hope it's the end of HMD that kept abusing Nokia name for so many years.

GSM Arena never considers Motorola phones.
The Edge 30 is another compelling choice, cheaper than the Nothing phone.
HMD should be ashamed of them selfs, releasing another useless Nokia branded phone, with such legacy. It´s clear now they are not up to the task anymore, and they should leave the Nokia badge alone for good. Let´s face it, the only reason that you buy this garbage is for the Nokia badge, you´d be better off with any other phone. And I´m not mentioning highly customized phones. You have Motorola, google Pixel , Nothing.....

Carol, 29 Nov 2022This device is anything but an insult to Nokia. An insult t... moreI'm gonna put it as simple as I possibly could, for your biased fanboy brain to understand.
Nokia phones used to be both competitive and innovative.
That was what made Nokia the NO1 brand worldwide at some point, and also why we all know the name today.
This device, HMD Nokia X30, is neither competitive nor innovative. The only reason some people could possibly be drawn to it, is if they believe in something that died a long time ago.
The Nokia Corporation took a bet with Windows Phone, they lost, and now they're gone.
HMD bought the rights to use the license, (understand the name) and they're stamping it on ODM devices (understand outsourced preconceived designs, all from china), then they ask big bucks for it like the devices are from fine Finnish development. Which they don't forget to make you believe in their marketing materials, but it's all a lie.
https://nokiamob.net/2021/01/17/large-number-of-modern-phones-including-nokia-are-designed-by-odm-companies/
Nokia Corporation is dead, and at the time I'm writing this, HMD's CEO left and no one wants the position. A telltale sign a venture is going under.
Sticking feathers up your back doesn't make you a chicken.
