Nokia 3.1

Introduction

Last year we saw Nokia rise from the ashes and launch a few successful Android series. Its confidence grew even stronger with the surprising sequels to the iconic Nokia 3310 and 8110 bar phones. HMD has done right by the name so far and now it's time to refresh those original Android lineups. And today we'll be checking out the Nokia 3.1 - a sequel to the very affordable Nokia 3.
Nokia 3.1 review
The Nokia 3.1 isn't the cheapest among the HMD's Android smartphones - there are lower-tier devices such as Nokia 2 and Nokia 1. But it's the one aimed at the masses with that attractive €150 price tag and trendy display aspect.
And the Nokia 3.1 is a very thoughtful continuation of the Nokia 3 series that builds on every aspect of its predecessor. There is now a taller screen with some extra pixels and thinner bezels, doubled processing and graphics power, a higher-res camera, a larger battery, and newer Android OS benefiting from Android One program.
So, even if you already own a Nokia 3, there are a lot of temptations that will make you think about an upgrade. Let's take a glimpse at those goodies.

Nokia 3.1 specs

  • Body: Plastic back, aluminum frame, front glass.
  • Display: 5.2" IPS LCD, 720x1,440px resolution, 18:9 aspect ratio, 310ppi.
  • Rear camera: Primary 13MP, f/2.0 aperture, autofocus, LED flash; 1080p/30fps.
  • Front camera: 8MP, HDR; 720p/30fps.
  • OS: Android 8.0 Oreo (Android One)
  • Chipset: MT6750: octa-core (4x 1.5GHz + 4x 1.0GHz) Cortex-A53 CPU, Mali-T860MP2 GPU.
  • Memory: 2/3GB of RAM; 16/32GB storage; microSD slot.
  • Battery: 2,990mAh Li-Ion (sealed);
  • Connectivity: Dual-SIM; LTE, microUSB; Wi-Fi a/b/g/n; GPS; Bluetooth 4.2, NFC, FM radio.
  • Misc: Single down-firing speaker; 3.5mm jack.
There is nothing really special about the Nokia 3.1 besides the fact it's a Nokia and it has a tall screen. But we didn't really expect any premium treatment - if it works smooth, shoots fine, and delivers on those promised upgrades - then it would be a job well done. Let's find out!

Unboxing the Nokia 3.1

The Nokia 3.1 comes packed within a rather oversized paper box. Inside you'll find the Nokia itself bundled with a 5W charger and a micro USB cable. There is also a cheap-looking headset with a mic.

Buget Smartphone

Xiaomi has a habit of whipping out new phones with category-defying features and specifications, much to the continuing delight of Indian smartphone buyers. This has catapulted the company to the  number one position  in terms of market share in just a few years' time. Xiaomi has made a name for itself with its hardware as well as the custom MIUI Android ROM, which has loads of features and a number of loyal fans. Why is why, the company's decision to release an entry-level smartphone with very basic specifications and the cut-down Android Go operating system came as a bit of a surprise. The new  Redmi Go  might seem weak on paper, especially in the shadow of the recently released  Redmi Note 7  ( Review ) and  Redmi Note 7 Pro  ( Review ), but it's important to remember what exactly mobile phones priced below Rs. 5,000 have been like before now. Phones at this level that we've reviewed in the past have had awful low-resolution screens with ba...
