Nokia 7.1 Review: Pros & Cons
7.6
out of 10
MSP SCORE
Pros
The Nokia 7.1 has a compact size and an HDR10-certified display, which is an LCD panel. The Snapdragon 636 chipset is also a plus for the phone, as it is quite decent in terms of processing power. The OS is Android One, which offers a bloatware-free stock Android experience. But this is a double-edged sword as many other ROMs offer features that Android One lacks.
Cons
The camera is average but you get smartphones with triple camera setups in this price range which are more versatile in terms of output like the Realme 5 Pro and the Galaxy M30. The selfie camera is also an 8MP snapper, which could have been a bit better. The battery is really tiny at 3060mAh because even budget phones these days offer cells with a capacity of 5000mAh.
Verdict
The Nokia 7.1 is a phone that can't survive because of the alternatives available in the market which offer far better specs, even basic ones like battery life and better displays. The battery capacity is a major drawback that is sure to push buyers towards better alternatives.
