Best things about this phone.. Rare.. not many people you know have it The features are really nice for the price It’s a Nokia.. you can’t go wrong and can expect a quality device
I really loved that the blocky design from the 6-series got shifted to the 7 series, and the two-tone frame design from the 7 plus series got shifted to the 8 series, as it simplifies the naming scheme and the design languages for each series
display drivers have to go somewhere. flexing the oled underneath the screen to hide the drivers and chin is the only solution we’ve seen so far but it’s costs too much which is why only apple has done it so far
Abhishek Mishra that would probably bring the price to a more premium price tag if they did that. But I agree that would make this phone that much better 😊
The 7.1 plus is yet to come, snapdragon 710, micro SD card slot, Zeiss lens, type c connector, 3500mah battery. HMD makes good phone under Nokia name, but so many good devices that actually hurt itself
USB type C and Android 1 are for me killer features, the honour looks good and I'm sure it performs well but I don't trust Chinese manufacturers to provide timely updates for thier phones.
Chinese manufactureres? Excuse me? My now over 2yo Nokia 5 still gets monthly updates and got Pie in mid-January, and still there are newer phones that don't have it yet. This brought my trust back in Nokia and now as I'm looking for a new one to upgrade I know a thing for sure - I'm getting a Nokia phone! :)
Oh Nokia, Oh Nokia. So this is my story with my 7.1. I purchased it in December ’18 at a well known store in Hong Kong. From there the phone was fine…liked Androidone, the phone itself is a nice size/weight etc. Many of the features that are talked about in this review are true, some are not (I don’t think it has great battery life, but it’s not horrible, the speakers is very weak!). Nevertheless as you will find out if you are considering a 7.1 it is clear that the USB-C (one of the reasons I purchased this phone along with the 3.5jack and the low price) is defective from the factory. 100% read the nokia support pages…they are ALL failing. So my tale of woe essentially comes down to the fact that Nokia is NOT honoring the warranty in the USA; which is a terrible idea for a product that is “designed” to be mobile (it’s a portable device!). If you were to go on vacation or get a job for an extended amount of time Nokia has ZERO help for you unless you stay home. For that reason alone I cannot recommend this phone or ANY phone from Nokia. Even fixing the phone requires shipping it back to Nokia for at least 3-5 days…and who knows if the fix is good? Keeping in mind that even after I asked to pay for service, they still said NO. Nokia…you are done. Good luck with that attitude going against Steve Jobs and his network of stores, spare parts and 3rd-party repair.
I have a new Nokia 7.1 and an HTC U11. The HTC has much higher specs, however in day to day use there's no noticable difference in the performance of each phone. That's using maps, social media and emails going all day. The Nokia is a really good phone. I think the days of these $900.00 flag ship phones are numbered.
People still use nokia tha fuge get outta that stone age and try other companies like samsung, apple, one plus, google huawei etc the best possible phone you can afford from any company other than nokia.
@Game Dev Quickie ummmm yeah i can tell you your iphone 5S might break easily cause my sis broke her iphone 5, screen shattered, opened on the side, not charging, broken from both sides etc so yours also wont survive cause weak material on em.
3000 mAh for SD636 and 1080p display is great battery bro. You are saying "average" because you are measuring it against flagship demands, but for that kind of specs, it's quite a huge capacity. To put it in perspective, I have 3,300 mAh on an LG V30S with SD835 and 1440p and no complaints.
Nokia might not be the best value for money phone in certain segments but it has vital features that many manufacturers omit at this and lower price segments which is Widevine L1 and Gorilla Glass.
Pre-ordered mine two weeks ago from Best Buy. Was "supposed" to arrive yesterday. Nothing. Shipment delayed, no further details. Best Buy says if it doesn't arrive by 25 Nov they will notify me and cancel the order. Someone screwed up here and it wasn't me! Not impressed with my first attempt to purchase a Nokia phone. Looking forward to the OnePlus 6T announcement Monday. That may make me forget about the Nokia 7.1
7 plus is better than this 7.1, BUT my only concern is that 7 plus has full aluminium body which could give network issues at times bcos signals pass through aluminium body with difficulty and easily through glass body. U can check on google about it just type aluminium body vs glass body phones.
My last nokia was the button phone one then switched to iphone 4 guys so im not intersted in nokia anymore but they are legends at this point cause they made the first usable button phone to come true on that point.
Honor's battery only lasts about 2 years, you need to buy a new one after that which sucks for someone who buys unlocked out right. If you are with a company that can give you free grades or monthly lease, then this doesn't really matter.
I watched a couple phone camera comparison videos. The Nokia 7.1 has a great camera in its price range and it DESTROYED the OnePlus 6's camera which took pretty bad pictures with a yellowish tint. It wasn't even a close competition. Now I really have no interest in getting the OnePlus 6T that costs $200 MORE than a Nokia 7.1.... The Nokia 7.1 and Moto Z3 are in my top 2 upgrade phones for me.
They went from just 1% marketshare to being the 8th largest manufacturer in the world in terms of sales volume within the span of 2 years, I believe if they continue to play their cards right then they've got a chance. It's not too late for them ^_^
'he-ch' 🤔 I always say 'ech'. NP you do you. It's just I'm not used to hearing it. Nice review though. I got a 6.1 plus for my mom recently and Nokia is really giving that premium feel at low budget.
I'm very interested with all Android one devices... Aiming for either nokia or Motorola. But are those devices brands you mentioned at the end of this video has no hiccup performance issue you talked about at 3.15?
6.1 Plus is India and Hong Kong exclusive. 7.1 is sold in the US, UK and Europe, has better Zeiss cameras, HDR 10 upscaling display and "better reception" due to larger chin.
Maybe it's because of the optimization of the android version in the device. Since it's a software issue, we can expect an update to fix the app crashes.
@Michael Murphy True! I would add that major Android updates are accompanied by bugs. The Mi A1 when it came out with Nougat had lot of bugs... Google fixed those but then again when the device got updated to oreo, the bugs were back and some of them disastrous. Deleted text messages from devices.. Xiaomi eventually had to stop the oreo update rollout until Google fixed those bugs
Yep but no worries google is good at updating fixing bug in their softwares. Unless the device isn't optimized for the current android version. We'll see.
This is a pretty good phone for the mid-ranger! Considering waht else is out there. Does anyone know if this phone is OIS/EIS? I seriously doubt it at this price range but you never know.

What if Nokia embraced Android before.. What if..
One of the Nexus line up might be made by them 😁
Then we wouldn't have find Samsung as a leader
Then people would have been using Nokia instead of Samsung, and Chinese mobile companies would have been imitating Nokia.
They would of been a great competitor for Samsung and apple
Then we will have android phone with PureView camera technology!

Why expand the display on top when you can’t at the bottom.

Nokia 7 Plus::Best midranger I have ever tried
6:58 Nokia phones are designed in Espoo, Finland. But *manufactured* in China&vietnam at Foxconn's factories.
Still made by a Finnish company, doesn't change the fact that it's designed in Europe, Foxconn is only the manufacturer, like Apple.
And it's also manufactured in India and Indonesia, not just in China and Vietnam
