Nokia 2.4 review: All about good cameras, powerful battery, and stock Android

  

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Nokia 2.4 comes with a HD+ display that is big enough for movie watching.
  • Performance is a bit mixed but you will get through most multitasking jobs.
  • Nokia 2.4 has a solid battery life and its cameras are equally good.

If you have recently been hearing about Nokia phones more than you did during the rest of the year, it is because HMD Global got super-active since the past few weeks. It has been launching some smartphones globally but only some of them have reached the Indian market. The latest one is Nokia 2.4. It is an essential upgrade over the Nokia 2.3, which sort of takes things forward while giving a set of upgraded specifications to customers.

Nokia smartphones are about the Android experience, something that the company prides itself in. It is away from the war over specifications but that is good only as far as marketing, because when you are in the marketing spending that money specifications do help you form a decision. This is probably the reason why Nokia is not even in the list of top five smartphone brands in India. So why exactly should you buy this phone that costs Rs 10,399? I have an answer to that for you in this review.

Nokia 2.4 review: A looker with a nice display

If you completely ignore the fact that there is always a comparison on the basis of phone specifications, Nokia phones will hit a home run purely due to their design. I mean HMD Global has a knack for creating some really beautiful and modern designs on the Nokia smartphones. Nokia 2.4 comes in Charcoal Grey, Dusk, and Fjord Blue colours. I have the first colourway that looks stylish with its gradient on the back and neutral shade of grey and black. However, it collects fingerprints way too easily, so you might want to put a back cover.

  HIGHLIGHTS The iPhone 12 Mini has a 5.4-inch screen and a compact design. It shares core hardware with the other iPhone 12 series phones. The Apple iPhone 12 mini has been priced at Rs 69,990 in India. On these pages, we earlier reviewed the iPhone 12, the iPhone 12 Pro and the iPhone 12 Pro Max. Today, we complete our roundup of the iPhone 12 series with this review of the iPhone 12 mini, the baby phone in the pack. Or as some would call it, the pocket rocket of the iPhone world, given how it shares its hardware with the other iPhone series phones. In fact, when it comes to the core hardware, the iPhone 12 and the iPhone 12 mini are similar, except the size and a couple of parts like the screen, battery and - something I found while using the 12 mini - the stereo speakers. In other words, what Apple is proposing with this phone is this: if you want a top-end smartphone but in a size that is closer to your old iPhone like the iPhone 7 or iPhone 5s, in 2020 the iPhone 12 mini...
