NOKIA 7.1 REVIEW

Introduction

You might say that the Nokia 7.1 is a successor to the Nokia 7 with a pinch of the 7 Plus' build quality and features added to bolster the entire package, and you won't be far from the truth.
The Nokia 7.1 may have a dual camera and a tall-aspect screen like the Nokia 7 Plus, but otherwise, the new phone is a thorough update of its predecessor. It adds a faster processor, a bigger HDR-capable PureDisplay, better cameras, better build, modern design while retaining the reasonable price, the wide availability, and the Android One experience.

Okay, here's what's new about the Nokia 7.1, laid out in numbers.

Nokia 7.1 specs

  • Body: 6000-series aluminum frame machined out of a single aluminum block; 159 g
  • Screen: PureDisplay 5.84-inch, 19:9 2280x1080 IPS LCD, 432 PPI, HDR10 compliant
  • Rear Camera: 12MP, f/1.8, 1.28µm, PDAF primary, 5MP B&W f/2.4, 1.12µm depth sensor; 1080p video
  • Front Camera: 8MP, f/2.0, 84-degree wide angle; 1080p video
  • Chipset: 14nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 636, Kryo 260 (4x Cortex-A73 @ 1.8GHz + 4x Cortex-A53 @ 1.6GHz), Adreno 509
  • Memory: 3GB/4GB RAM, 32GB/64GB storage + microSD (up to 400GB)
  • OS: Android 8.1 (part of Android One, will be upgraded to Android 9 Pie in November)
  • Battery: 3,060mAh, quick charging 0-50% in 30min
  • Connectivity: 4G, dual-band Wi-Fi 802.11ac, Bluetooth 5.0 aptX, GPS/GLONASS, Wi-Fi Direct, NFC, USB 2.0 Type-C, 3.5mm headphone jack
  • Misc: Fingerprint sensor (on the back)
Nokia has made enough of a difference to the innards to make the Nokia 7.1 a worthy successor to the 7, but it has also improved much about the outside of the phone.
Not everyone will be thrilled about the new notch, but the tall-aspect display means the Nokia 7.1 has smaller bezels on all sides (significantly less on the top and bottom), more real estate and resolution and all of this in a phone that's slightly taller but not wider.
The new cameras are probably the biggest improvement on the Nokia 7.1. The rear main camera is better equipped for low light while the second 5MP sensor adds portrait mode shots to the experience. On the front, there's an 8MP snapper with a wide angle view that promises sharper selfies than the 5MP of old.

The only area where the Nokia 7.1 seems to lack innovation is the modest 3,060mAh battery. It's not a lot of power to drive along the near 6-inch display and it's also only 60mAh larger than the battery on the Nokia 7.
We've had our time with the Nokia 7.1 so let's dive in and see how it handles.

Mi max 3 review

Introduction Remember when people made fun of the original  Samsung Galaxy Note  and its "humungous" 5.3-inch display? Oh, how the times have changed. Still, have we really come to a point where a 6.9-inch diagonal behemoth is able to avoid the "tablet" category and stretch the already confusing phablet category even further? Well, we definitely don't want to be on the wrong side of history here. Plus, we're all for a positive body image. So, power to Xiaomi and the Mi Max 3! Obviously, the company has decided it's got a wide enough user base for such a device. And truth be told, they've achieved a pretty sleek and compact design thanks to the impossibly slim bezels and the trendy 18:9 tall aspect ratio. Xiaomi Mi Max 3 specs Body:  Metal unibody, glass front; 176.2x87.4x8mm, 221g. Display:  6.9" IPS LCD, 2,160x1,080px resolution, 18:9 aspect ratio, 350ppi. Rear camera:  Primary 12MP, 1.4µm pixel size, f/1.9 aperture, dual pixel PDA...

oppo f9 reviwe

Introduction The Oppo F9/F9 Pro is yet another installment in the hugely popular Oppo mid-range series. It's the first phone in the family with a dual-camera on the back and backtracks on the screen cutouts by moving to a tiny waterdrop notch.                                                         You have probably noticed we are using the F9/F9 Pro inscription for this review and there is a reason for that. Oppo has chosen a rather awkward approach to the naming of its mid-ranger. In India - one of the key markets for the F-series - the F9 is available in two versions. There is the F9 Pro with 6GB of RAM, a 25MP selfie camera and VOOC flash charging, and the regular Oppo F9 with 4GB of RAM, a 16MP selfie shooter, and no VOOC charging. Yet in every other market Oppo is selling only the F9 but with specs matching the Indian pro version(6GB, ...
