The long-awaited return of the eminent brand to the modern market. Rivals to the smartphone are devices of the middle price category. Against their background, Nokia Model 6 is not running the most powerful Snapdragon 430 chip in its class. Otherwise, the hardware is at the level — 3 GB of RAM is allocated to help the processor, and 32 GB of permanent memory is allocated to the user.
The expansion of memory is carried out by sacrificing one of the SIM — a microSD card is inserted into the hybrid slot. The software shell of the gadget is represented by the Android 7.1 OS version. The body of the device is finished with metal and rounded 2.5D glass on the front panel, under which there is a 5.5-inch FullHD display. The gadget has a slight bias towards mobile photography — the 8 MP front camera can take high-quality selfies, and the 16-megapixel main module is built on a matrix with an increased pixel size to improve image quality when shooting in low light conditions.
The transfer of the Nokia brand under the wing of HMD Global marked the rebirth of the name of the once most popular mobile phone manufacturer. One of the first signs of the reincarnated legend was the Nokia 6.
conflicting feelings
A close acquaintance with the smartphone leaves behind a double impression. On the one hand, when assembling the device, high-quality components were used, which are enclosed in a strong aluminium case. According to reviews, the phone easily endures falls, but the “shock resistance” column in its technical specifications remains blank. On the other hand, the smartphone did not get the freshest hardware — the entry-level Snapdragon 430 chip in conjunction with 3/4 GB of RAM and 32/64 GB of permanent memory, as well as Adreno 505 graphics.
Performance
Despite the fact that many rivals in the class are equipped with more advanced hardware, the Nokia 6 still does not fall behind in terms of performance — the stock Android 7.1 operating system affects, with the possibility of further upgrading to the Oreo version. In everyday work, applications load quickly, and slowdowns occur only when running "heavy" games. However, at medium-low graphics settings, they will also go.
Full HD screen
The greatest number of flattering words from the owners of the model is bothered by a high-quality 5.5-inch FullHD display. Yes, the frames around it cannot be called small, but they look harmonious and do not stand out from the general style of the mobile gadget, emphasizing the brutal features of its character. Under the screen, there was a place for a smart fingerprint sensor that protects personal data from unauthorized access.
Photo features
The cameras onboard Nokia 6 are represented by a 16-megapixel main photo module and a front camera with a resolution of 8 MP. Decent pictures with their help can be obtained in daylight, with a deterioration in the quality of illumination, the likelihood of blurring in photographs increases, since there is no optical or digital stub in the arsenal of cameras. To extract more details from the photo, shooting in HDR mode, by the way, is quite unhurried. But what else the smartphone is strong in is the sound of external speakers — a conversational speaker is involved in creating a stereo effect when playing music. In general, the device looks more expensive than it actually costs, and leaves a positive impression, delighting brand adherents with a worthy comeback.
