Pros and cons

Thanks to the large 3500mAh battery, your smartphone won't run out of power any time soon.
Due to the glass back, the smartphone is slippery and slides away easily.

Description

The Nokia 8.1 feels fast thanks to the powerful processor and the 4GB memory. With the dual camera and optical image stabilization you can take sharp photos, even when your hands are shaking a bit. In addition, the smart software automatically adjusts the settings for the best photos. For example, if you take a picture of your boyfriend or girlfriend, the camera uses the portrait mode. You can also make high-quality selfies thanks to the 20-megapixel camera. Just like other Nokia smartphones, the 8.1 is an Android One device. This means that you will get the latest Android version in the coming 2 years. You will also receive security updates for at least 3 years. This way, you can safely move forward with your phone in the coming years.

Battery drains faster than expected

I've had this phone for a week now. He replaced a Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo. This phone is fast. Get used to the controls (always had Samsung). The screen has rounded corners, so that sometimes pieces of the image fall off: sloppy. The back is made of glass, I do not understand the added value of this. I also use a case on the phone. It's not that ridiculously big (but of course slightly bigger than the S5 Neo).

After years of being an avid Samsung user, on the advice of a friend switched to Nokia with Android One. No regrets for a moment: long battery life, fast response from fingerprint scanner and device, no unnecessary apps and guaranteed updates. Only drawbacks: limited choice of matching covers, especially if you don't want black. Furthermore, I find it a bit on the large side, but that is personal (and is nullified by the specs)
