I signed up for the Amazon Nokia 6 sale on Aug 23rd. But saw a youtube video made by tech guruji about what was wrong with the Nokia 6. After that saw another video of a Nokia 6 user who had bought the phone in the USA and had it for a week and he compared it to the Moto G5 plus which was available for almost same price and had SD625 processor. The camera seems to be good in daylight but now night or low light pics. Also the reviewer said there was some slight pause when opening apps from background which was not visible in Moto G5 plus or other phones like iPhone etc.
Now I'm having second thoughts on this phone. Already its half a year late and no one knows when it'll be out. Plus adding to the negatives, it has a lower end chip. Similar low end SD430 phones are sold at 6999-9999 price range by other manufacturers. The price difference for an aluminium body is too high imo. I don't think promising updates = the 4-5k price difference.
By the time this is out in September 2017 (hopefully), I think new phones will comes out by Lenevo or Moto or other companies who target that time period to bring out new phones.
And here I was only talking about the middle range Nokia 6. The Nokia 5 and 3 and 3310 are all even more low range phones with lesser specs. Nokia as usual charging more for less. But will it work in todays times with Redmi, Samasung, Vivo, Oppo, Huawei, Honor, etc who have managed to give out much better phones and still struggle to retain a foothold in the market? Nokia hasn't bought out any mind blowing deal or any awesome looking phone. Their phones still look like any other device. So nothing in the looks category too.
I think Nokia will get buyers only due to brand recognition and after some reviews (where people will compare it to similar phones in 12999-16999 range like Moto g5/g5+, Lenovo P2, Redmi Note 4, it will fall off a cliff. I mean all these phones are cheaper and have bigger battery and storage, better chips etc. In a price consious market I don't think they will last long.
What do you people think?
