I found that the night mode of the X30 is the best way to take pictures in any situation, including in sunlight to capture more details and colors.
Nokia X30 is durable rough and yes stong build phone. Love from India

I've been following your channel for a long time, and also I've been following HMD's progress on the market (I used Nokia 3, 5, and 6.1). After a great experience with a Xiaomi device I recently switched back to Nokia, this time G21. I really hope HMD succeeds and carves itself a piece of smartphone market since I love their approach to making smartphones!
I hope the G21 serves you well!
I also have the Nokia G21! My old Nokia 8.1 got damaged with too much water, my favorite phone! I bought the G21 as a cheap replacement, and it works pretty well! I would not pay more than $400 with a phone which lacks a 4K camera like the Nokia 8.1 had. Maybe Nokia can come back with something in 2024? I cannot see anything that's more worth it's price than the G21 coming from Nokia so far. I paid $180 for it, which isn't bad at all, in my opinion.
Pretty surprising that this phone has an actual proximity sensor with tiny bezels while all flagships use a virtual version
Loved the techspurt cameo by the way😄
Thanks for the video and review, very helpful. It sounds like many of the challenges are due to Android one vs the phone. I think of Android one as being the crippled version but maybe that isn't right.
HMD is still in the works, there is still room for improvement in several aspects, the Nokia X30 is a good device, but the high price keeps away many buyers who find better options at a lower price, HMD needs to launch a more premium intermediary, with more aggressive specifications, and to solve their logistics problem, which is very precarious, HMD needs to deliver more in its launches, stereo speakers for example, just the Nokia name and focus on sustainability will not increase sales. A hit on the X30 was the size of the screen which is very comfortable in the hands.
HMD needs to focus on a model and deliver the best specs and improve their logistics, a faster availability for sales.
600 USD here in India man. Way way too expensive
In India they released 4 months after the global realease and priced it expensive among all markets which made it the direct competition for pixel 7,one plus 11, galaxy S21 FE and S22 😑
Yeah I don't know what Nokia is doing with the pricing. It's a tough sell even at 30k but 50 is where no one in their right mind would consider this device. Especially since you can get an iPhone for the same price in sales.
Nokia deserves to die. Who do hmd think they are with those prices? It's good that the market decides the fate of products and not the so-called 'trust' of Nokia. This phone does not deserve even a single unit sold
New phone design video #ideaonlinedip
That's why I left Nokia 😢. Price was too high for me
It's for 36k now.using since June 18
Nokia x30 5G phone's design is attractive and they should continue using metallic like 2017 lineup for mid-range atleast.
Today, I sent my X30 for service. I was having issues with the loudspeaker - the volume was fading away after a while but was "reset" after pausing the app.
I suppose the service crew will just switch out the loudspeaker for a new one. I guess that'll fix that issue.
And then there's the difference in colors between 60hz and 90hz refresh rates.
It's so annoying!
The best thing about the X30 imo is the battery. Maybe that speaks for itself. :P
For a long time I just kept the display on 60Hz and forgot about it haha. I hope they fix the loudspeaker for it.
Ive had the X30 for about 3 months, i'm pretty pleased with it all round. There is one issue however, after update 00WW_1_310 SP01 charging is limited to about 8.5 W, instead of the maximum 33 W. Personally i didn't experience any overheating issues while charging the phone prior to the latest build so i'm not sure why Nokia has done this. The slower charging doesn't bother me in the slightest as i always top up during the evening, but it would be nice if Nokia acknowledged why they seem to have changed the specification of the the phone now. Excellent video as usual. 👍

Is speaker issue do you also have
It's been 4 months of usage and the going has been fantastic.. except for the loudspeaker, love everything about the handset
Can't wait to see your reaction to the G22
Hello Abdulla we really miss you from making nokia phone reviews. Can you make a review of x30 with android 14?
Hello Abdullah. Great video
There is a discount of the X30 to 430€ in my country. Do you think it’s worth it?
X30 or G42/60 if they were the same price?
(I'm a 4.2 user looking for basic speed & a phone that punches above it's weight)
I have been using my Nokia X20 for over a year now. I just took my cover off to clear the dust. The volume key came off 😢. Volume up plastic lock got broken 😢 I don't know how. I don't want to change my mobile device because I have so much stuff in it. I'm looking for suggestions should I go for X30 and why? Thanks.
Being a Nokia fan & user, I'm excited to use Nokia X30 & ordered after checking these reviews. But unfortunately, it's worse. There are a lot of bugs & the camera is very disappointing. It's not even closer to Nokia 7.1 which was released in 2018 as it uses the Zeiss lens. I had to return it & buy another one
I request the reviewers to not mislead people
Right pricing would have been hot selling cake!!!
Why does hmd global not introduce flagships using Snapdragon 8 gen x processors but using 6th generation processors?
After 2 months, my Nokia X30 fell out of my bike mount (forgot to lock it in), and the LCD panel under the glass became damaged.
The damage started in the lower left side near the corner, and spread across the whole panel until it was fully black, so now it's unusable.
It was in a TPU case when it was dropped, and the phone itself looks completely unharmed, and there's a subtle scuff on the TPU case.
Just bad luck maybe, but now I'm back to my Nokia 8, which has been dropped numerous times, and still hanging in there.
Since the Nokia X30 is not sold in my country officially, there is no warranty, and I can't even send it in to get repaired.
I'm stuck going to a third-party phone repair shop.
Aside from that, I did like the X30 very much.
I have experienced heat warping with my Nokia 5.4. It is around the sim tray
I have the X30 and i really don't like is the speaker sound and sometimes capturing images is not that consistent
whwre the update Android 13 for nokia x30 I am still waiting
What's your opinion about Nokia's new logo? And will Nokia bring the new logo to the phones too, or it's just for business equipments?
I traded in an iPhone 11 for a pixel 7 and instantly regretted it, it was awful! So I looked to see what I could trade the pixel in for without much to pay. I had to 'settle' for the Nokia X30.
All I can say is wow! It is super stable and slick to use. I'd say the user experience is as close to an iPhone as I've experienced on any android device. No glitches or irritations encountered (unlike the multitude of bugs and glitches on the pixel!)
I'm super stoked to have found the X30 by chance and would recommend it to anyone. Definitely punches above its price tag.
Camera and speaker dislikes may be valid if they matter to you. For me they are non-issues.
If you're gonna compare x30's camera to the 14 pro's camera, you should include some samples from the iphone too
X30 *still* with Android 12 out of the box here in NL. Leaning towards saving my pennies and getting a G42, though it doesn't look like it is nearly as good a phone.
Has it actually been updated to v13 by now?
Excellent video. I still want this phone. Can’t seem to find an easy way to get it in the states
Hope in future Nokia would launch a smartphone at least comes with snapdragon 7 gen chipset and better camera quality that can beat samsung or iPhone and it comes at a premium mid ranger tag.
No need to go for snapdragon 7 gen chipset.
With android one and monthly security update, the mid range soc will perform like high range one. Even my nokia 7.2 with sd660 is perfoming very well, it handles what i throw at it. Honestly, at first was little disappointed but time to time update and upgrade fized every issues in device and made it well performing one. Very impressed.
I got it under half price and think it's damn good for what you get for sale prices personally. The speaker just sucks for music you're best to carry around a Bluetooth speaker.
Saw my boy Tech Spurt.
Shout out to the Spurt!
He's hilarious. Love his videos
Do you know what would be cool? If Nokia lanchued a UI based on their windows phone design. Like a modern version of the tiles but obviously running Andorid and Google apps. It would give personality to Nokia. I would certainly buy it.
true! at the moment all android phones look the same both in and out. every phone and brand needs to have something unique that people can identify with. talk of the kids corner; non existent.
Funny thitg is that this model isn't available in Indonesia, left only lower G and C series.
From what i've experiment with Samsung A22 5G with isocell gm2, i'm able to produce a very natural looking photo with the sharpness i see it as optimal, but I have to do it from raw file. If Nokia x30 have an CameraAPI2 access opened, you can make a better looking photo
I think it will get better soon!
Nothing can change how great this device is
Besides it can be improved by time... don't you agree?
Is there Always on display??
For me, Nokia started going downhill after the 8.3 5G. That phone was really the last time Nokia had me excited about a device.
for me it was the 3310
For me it was after their last Symbian phone, Nokia 808 PureView.
For me it was nokia 9 pureview
Agree with the 7 series Snapdragon that should have been used for this price point.
Have my X30 a few weeks now. Very disappointed that I cannot have my text message tone separated from notification tone! Like I did no my Sony Z1 before. Otherwise good phone so far.
Long press on msg until popup come out than you can change the notification tone
Too many complaints regarding the Nokia X30 in the Nokia Community forum. I was expecting a premium device like the Nokia X30 won't have issues.
Like concept phone video#ideaonlinedip
after amonth i have a problem lag n cannot on my X30 5G....
Assalamualaikum Mr Zaki. Can u make camera comparison between X30 vs X20.
We need camera comparison nokia x20 vs nokia x30 . Please
I was so tempted to buy one of these to replace my iPhone X when it died. I couldn’t decided between one of these, a pixel or sticking with an over priced iPhone. The iPhone won, only due to all my family are IPhone and it just made everything easier. If that hadn’t been the case the Nokia would have won.
Hmd g50 was the last globally phone released in the USA. Hmd is declining its previous models are always better like x20, 8.3 or 7.1.
They just priced the X30 for around 50k INR (607 USD), I think they could’ve just gone with a powerful snapdragon 870 (ik that’s old, but viable) and kept its price for around 25k cuz I would not pay 600+ dollars for Snapdragon 695.
In Nokia X30 ...4k video recording option & Zeiss Optics are missing 🙄
I really wanted to use the X30 as my daily driver . The deal breaker for me was the lack of VoLTE. It’s absolutely horrible these days when telcos switched to VoLTE on their networks and your phone doesn’t support it. What you get is frequent disconnections, you can’t access data while on a call and so forth.. with the recent upgrade to Android 13, and it being stock android, I just love it. It’s the closest thing you can get to a Pixel UI in markets where Pixels are not supported. Regarding the camera, I have no issues..
VoLTE is a battery guzzler. Even my X20's battery drains more rapidly with VoLTE enabled and no calls being made. The only option is to fall back to 3G+ HSPA+ which has high latency.
it has VoLTE
Using that right now lol
Can we install gcam in this device?
Speaker issue fixed now??????? :(:(:(
The automatic display brightness makes the display much too dark in low light situations, no matter how often you re-adjust the brightness in such situations with the slider
Hey this is my biggest annoyance is there a fix? I don't want to turn it off as it's even more annoying but it's too aggressive with dimming
This thing looks just like the spiritual successor to the Nokia 7 plus from 2018. This phone was branded the flagship killer of that year and I must say, a SD665 a then huge 3800mAh battery strong cameras and a slick design are a convincing formula. It is just a shame that it has literally nothing new to offer.
Can i shift from Nokia 8 to Nokia 30?
I don't own a X30 but must say, face unlocking performance on 8.3 5g has also improved leaps and bounds. I believe some software update has enhanced its performance. Initially I thought why would someone need the feature, when unlocking by fingerprint is good until you realize living in a cold place when you have your gloves on. Face unlock is a saviour. It works good for 9 out of 10 times. Only problem I have had is when I am in a dark room. You need to take the phone too close to your face or have the phones brightness increased. Do you experience the same with X30?
That does sound about the same :)
Nokia phones lack face unlocking sensors, so the phones use front camera to achieve face unlock.
Nokia is Bhalobasa 💕
I don't know if it just my phone but every time it boots up there is a black spot on the upper left of the boot screen.
@Rithvik Varma it’s this X30
That could be a dead pixel.. Is it always black or just on boot up?
@@AbdullaZaki Definitely software thing. It just only appear in the first boot screen with still logo, when it’s in the 2nd stage of boot that black spot disappeared. So strange! Wonder if others had it too.
Please make a Nokia g22 video 🥺🙏
I'm still waiting for the release in Brazil
At this moment I regret it I choose for a Samsung Galaxy Flip4 last year, it does more than flipping, I guess I got too much used to Nokia haha. So now I'm in the market and want to choose from the X30, which has a great price here (379) or the XR21 (499) as second phone I have the XR20 and some older Nokias as backup. Which one would you choose?
If you want something stylish, compact size and good camera I would go for X30, if you want infinite durability and better battery life, I would go for XR21
That device remembers me The Lumia 925
On paper the X30 seems like the ideal device. And it’s definitely not a bad one at all, especially with the upgrades you mentioned (higher refresh rate, upgraded camera app, enhanced battery life and software performance) in your review. But coming from an 8.3, 5G, should I chose to upgrade this unfortunately wouldn’t be my choice.
There are a few too many compromises that are deal breakers for me, as it seems that Nokia is trying to follow similar trends in its midrange category as other OEMs do in theirs or more specifically, their flagship class. No phone jack, no microSD card slot. Even if you let’s say don’t make use of those features frequently or at all, the choice should still be there in case they ever become needed. The battery is smaller, and yes I do understand that it makes up for it by being more efficient than its larger counterparts in terms of power consumption…but at this point, except those few upgrades you highlighted, the 8.3 5G has all those features missing on the X30…including the fact that they are both still using Android 12, which in the case of the 8.3 5G, would be the last OS/software it would be getting (even though the device should and could be able to handle Android 13 given that it had 8GB of RAM). Also, and this maybe nitpicking, but I am disappointed that on a midranger like the X30, Nokia’s collaboration with (Carl) Zeiss is noticeably absent. Right now, and I’m only saying this if you own an 8.3 5G, the X30 doesn’t look like an upgrade, it is more of a side step instead of a step forward.
The only viable alternative for a kind of an upgrade would be the G60. While it lacks in certain areas and would rightly be considered a downgrade in some aspects, no doubt, it retains a lot of the features and specs I wish had been incorporated on the X30. Hopefully there’s a follow up device to the XR21…XR31 (?) that will address these issues. Now THAT would be a smartphone to keep an eye out for!
Mate better wait couple of months HMDGlobal wil launch X40 and etc. Phones.
@@khaifmd3412 Yep. I'll do just that. That was more just thinking that if I did want to upgrade...or well change devices, as of now the G60 seems, at least for me, as the best available option.
I went from the 8.3 to the X30 and I do not regret it. From my personal perspective I've found the X30 to be much faster, much better battery life (although I'd had my 8.3 for 2 years so that could be part of it) I wasn't too impressed to lose the micro SD slot or headphone jack, but I bought the 256GB 8GB ram to cover that. I prefer Bluetooth headphones but I used a wired connection for singing as the wired ones work better for that.
The camera has been better on the X30, the speaker is much better, and as much as I miss the 8.3 size for being able to reassuringly feel it in my pocket, the size makes it much easier to use - especially when using the camera.
The 8.3 was a stunning looking phone, but I never really loved the phone. I had the Nokia 8 before it which was just so much faster and smoother than the 8.3, and it felt like a dip in quality to me. The X30 actually does seem like an upgrade and I'm very happy with it. I did also consider the G60, which certainly does seem priced better for the spec, but I honestly have no regrets at all.
What's the hullabaloo about the 3.5 mm jack ? The USB C port does exactly the same function, and better. If you have the old 3.5 mm pin devices, just buy a 2 dollar connector for the same.
I think the move to letters and numbers from numbers caused a bit of confusion. Technically, the 8.3 was on a higher calibre than the X30. If they would release a successor to it, it would be an X40/50. but I also prefer using the X30 over the 8.3 mainly due to the size and display. G60 would still be a good option in terms of speed, and keeping the 3.5mm jack, but cameras and in hand feel, its a big step back from the 8.3
The texture and craftsmanship of the X30 are very good, the operation is smooth, and the camera performance is powerful, but the most unacceptable thing is that the video recording function is really unsatisfactory, especially at 60 fps.
Is it the quality of the video, stabilitization, colour process or something else that you don't like?
@@AbdullaZaki There is stuck and stopped when recording, and the smoothness is obviously not as good as that of XR20
@@AbdullaZaki is the camera really bad or can I go with it? I mean the Hdr part
Keep going.
I have one question is Nokia x30 has 3 microphones
Android 13 ist raus. Ich liebe mein X30. Die Haupt-Kamera, Du erwähntest es, macht bessere Fotos als mein iPhone 13, welches ich verkauft habe.
Performance und Design finde ich klasse. Stereo Lautsprecher wären echt schön gewesen.
Ich hab ein Problem: im dark mode mit adaptiver Bildschirm Aktualisierung ist das Schwarz im ruhenden screen dunkler als wenn man scrollt. Das stört mich derart, dass ich es auf Standard gestellt habe, da ist es nicht, im hellen Modus auch nicht. Kennst Du das Problem?
Hi, wie verhält sich die Kamera bei bewegten Objekten, zum Beispiel Tiere? Sind die Ergebnisse zB mit dem Pixel 3 vergleichbar?
LG
Hey Abdullah !
I have a blind trust on you.
Currently, I am using nokia 6.1+ and I wanted to upgrade.
Will Nokia G21 satisfy my needs ?
Will it gives me more quality photos?
Will it give my better performance?
Please I want your suggestion !
I wouldn't recommend the G21 as an upgrade from the 6.1+ Its not a step up, more like a sideway step but with some other compromises.
Я купил себе такой ...кайф❤
You need to make a video of Nokia’s new logo! Whats your take on that logo change?
I honestly prefer the classic. It has a historical significance and no one can’t take away the power that classic logo brings.
I will soon :)
The new logo is for Nokia telecom. HMD doesn't get to use it.
that is the other nokia mate
Is it good to buy Nokia G60 or wait for some other launches? Currently using Nokia 6.1
Go for Pixel 6A instead of G60
G60 would be a decent upgrade over the 6.1 but not as nice in the hand..
I also had a Nokia 6.1 for 4,5 years, and upgraded to a Nokia X20 mid last year.
If I'm happy with the X20 running Android 13, I would be happy with the Nokia G60 too, because it has a better processor than the X20. And if you pick the 6GB/128 Gb version, you'll have phone for several years to come. So, yeah, I'm sure the G60 is a good upgrade for the Nokia 6.1.
@@sudhirgovilkar1280 it's a good alternative if it's cheaper than the X30 in your country, but here, the X30 is significantly cheaper than the 6a
@@minukarodrigo that's great! What country are you from? What is the price of the X30 there?
i wish i waited long enough for this phone to be released because i would've bought one. the problems you mention wouldn't be a problem for me, even though it's not acceptable. i essentially never use the loud speaker. and since whatsapp is the most intesive app i use, the low end cpu (it's not really low end) wouldn't bother me one bit.
New phone design video#ideaonlinedip
Hello Abdulla, thanks for sharing your experience, I still have Nokia 6.1 (still serves good). Replace by X30? Pixel 6a? Pixel 7? I dont know... I like Nokia, but bought Zenfone 8 for daughter and also looks good...
Probably, I will keep 6.1 for a bil longer, only thing bothering me is slower Waze, except that is phone OK...
Nokia X30
Please post Nokia G60 long term review.
I'm not using it as a daily driver
Does it have Always-on-Display feature?
You can enable it from the settings, yes
I was looking forward to buy it but I got a good deal for a Nokia 8 since I am disappointed with samsung
I'm also using Nokia 8 😍 my previous Samsungs were trash
Cannot they make XR21 with SD778g for advanced connectivity and Nokia branding "superphone"?? It could be most user friendly device like Nokia 3310!
It's hard for me to like the X30 when the G60 use the same Snapdragon 695 chipset and also eligible for three major OS update. Also, the Xperia 10 iv is cheaper than the X30 and has both headphone jack and microSD card slot, which is something the X30 neither has.
Sure you won't really get a performance advantage with the X30 over the G60, but its very clear that its a much better phone when you use their features. Kinda like a BMW 540 and a 340. Same engine, different quality/features.
Check out x30 screen/ display
Just ordered mine my I phone se has given up after 6 years
Looks good 200 quid
I think people don't know what they are missing if they don't use nokia
Most of Nokia smart phone is value for money
You never disappoint if you buy nokia
I go for Nokia x30 for belownreason
1 in hand feeling is extra ordinery
2 display
3 clean android
4 256 storage
Only one complain you can not record 2k or 4k video
You can not play 4k video
While Nokia 7.2 8.1 is able to record 4k video
They messed it up here in India by releasing it in the same price range as iPhone 12 and Samsung galaxy s22
It will outperform those devices.
In test with general public they always go for fotos with the most colour and the most brightness
So Nokia is tuning camera to what the general public expected and not what is considered good
Waiting for the X30 replacement whenever that appears.
It is a shame Abdullah that Nokia (HMD) are giving us and you so little to keep us interested. Be good to have a few videos in 2024 despite that! Possibly this model a year on? Or on your current daily driver. Best wishes.
Mic .. sometimes my voice is so low people can't hear me in recording ...
The power buttons below the volume is a little annoying ... The Nokia startup tone is just annoying as that can't be turned off .. other than that I am happy
The X30 makes me conflicted: they did most things right compared to previous models with a relatively compact size and weight, practical materials, OLED display, IP67 rating, Victus glass, OIS, a capable camera sensor, 33W charging... but something seems missing. Certainly the choice of chipset, while perfectly capable, seems more out of place against the rest of the specs, but I think it comes down to the design which lacks the subtle warmth and more human appeal of something like the X20 or 8.3.
Considering there have been updates to the camera interface and features I am at least hopeful they may at least temper the excesses of the HDR on the X30, but maybe it is just an ISOCELL issue (looking at photos taken with the S23 Ultra I am starting to suspect the latter).
The update and upgrades will fix those.
honestly i adore how this phone looks, the camera bump on the back is unique yet satisfying to look at
What the hell is "subtle warmth and human appeal"?
People really write anything to sound smart.
For a phone that competes with big companies like google pixel pro is crazyyyy
Nokia needs that Nokia touch from years ago
Cool
I feel sad that Nokia has priced too much for this in India, had it been around 35k then it would have been a different story.
Exactly my pain. What are they thinking, pricing a SD 695 device at nearly 50 k ? And then the cannabalised it on their own by pricing the other SD 695 device (G60) at 30 k ! It should have been more like G60 at 21-22k and X30 at 30K.
I am sure nobody will buy both those devices in India.
I understand. I also think that price is too much. But please don't take one component as the only factor that determines the price. There is a reason the G60 is so much cheaper despite having the same processor. The same way a BMW 130i and 530i might share an engine, but are completely different in price and features.
@@atulmalhotra2303 Upside of purchasing a Nokia device is whether it may compete with cheap Chinese pricing or not, I can blindly keep faith on Nokia for durability, smooth experience and software updates (even after years of launch still my 6.1 plus is working great). So I don't believe that no one will purchase these.
@@AbdullaZaki I am looking for a upgraded feature wise too, that's why I might skip this device. Do you think they will launch a new device in the next 3-4 months
@@v44922 My Nokia 7.2, purchased 14.1.2020, was going well till I dropped it in a water tank last month. It would have lasted me till 2024 end if I wanted.
But 30k for a Nokia G60 is way too much. 20-22 k is more like it. And 30 k for X30.
Plus, why shouldn't there be any offering below 25k ? What are they thinking ?
Bro this phone is worth or not?? Please tell
Пользуюсь XR20 на постоянной основе... Думаю перейти на Х30 или уже сразу на XR21? Хотя, не вижу большой разницы между XR20 и 21... Разве что, развертка экрана в 120 Гц. Может дождаться Х31 уже сразу?😁
У x30 большой недостаток , нет стерео динамиков
А ещё беспроводной зарядки и миниджека... Только я уже приобрел его, сейчас тестирую. Скоро обзор на моем канале)
I didn't buy X30 because our Finnish 🇫🇮 tech reviewers weren't too happy. They didn't like it's daytime photos. Night time photos were great, but that's not important to me as I almost never take night photos. Snapdragon 695 at this price point is a letdown, it should have been Snapdragon 7 Gen 1. A good AMOLED screen but 6,4" is too small for my big hands, I prefer a minimum 6,6" these days. SD card slot should have been added too. I wonder why it must be left out on all phones in 2023 except the budget priced models (even Samsung took it away from A54, all earlier 50 series models always had it. X30 main 50 mp camera has so much potential since it's Samsung's flagship sensor - same as on Galaxy S22 and S22+. So I guess it's a software problem that HMD maybe could fix sometime in the future.
As a Nokia 6.2 user I can share that the photo quality was disappointing for at least 1 to 1.5 years after purchase (especially noise issues), but then they updated their camera app and things were greatly improved. Moreover, things were good at all times with an unofficial gCam build. So they definitely have a habit of messing up the image processing, but it's a software thing that did get improved significantly in my experience.
I've been asking myself how they are still in business? I mean the competitors are simply in a different universe for that price region.
I don't get the strategy of Nokia at all anymore
I don't imagine the X30 would be one of their hot sellers but I want you to think about it this way: Not every phone needs to focus on the exact same ingredients because actual consumers outside of the tech community aren't interested in benchmarks and speed tests.
They want a phone that works reliably, is quick, can capture good pictures in every situation, looks and feels good in the hand, has a nice display, and gets updated for a long period of time. The X30 does all of these things quite well. The only disappointing aspect is the speaker which really should be much better at this price point.
Keep in mind, I'm not saying I'm happy with the direction the brand is going. But its not like competitors are doing much better outside of ticking checklists, and every phone comes with its own set of compromises of course.
@@AbdullaZaki Yeah you are right.
I think HMD might also earn a bit more money with feature phones than smartphones nowadays. Maybe they also sell a lot of smartphones for businesses that need affordable phones on a large scale without the newest fanciest camera or cpu. Just reliable MDE controllable devices.
Where is IR sensor for face unlock?
It's under the top speaker and right above the display.
@@AbdullaZaki no way, It's not an ir but a proximity sensor, there's not even an IR camera on the Nokia site.
you're right. I remember seeing it somewhere when the phone first came out but I can no longer find anything about it. Will fix video
RUclips doesn't seem to be posting my comments but... There is an IR LED in the top right corner of the X30 display, it appears where the Android camera privacy indicator shows when you wake the device in low light or darkness. It's why face unlock is fast on the X30.
The only place it is mentioned is the X30 official datasheet, I'm not sure why Nokia Mobile don't highlight it as a feature.
@@westridingwanderer No, it's a proximity sensor. Do you know how much a camera would have to be to stand ahead? The X30 doesn't have an IR camera.
Without 3.5mm jack is a big no
Why they are not launching phones with snapdragon processor below₹20000 in India...they had 5.4 with sd processor and puch hole camera within ₹15000... And they had 7.2 and 6.2 with Zeiss optics camera under ₹20000.
Now they are providing unisoc T606 and 50 mp waste camera (G21) in the same range .
Upcoming G22 is also having same unisoc t606....
They are far far away from Indian market...
Going farther and farther ...
May be in future we Indians remember Nokia in our dreams...
100%!
Abdullah, I am Really Disappointed why HMD Global So Arrogant & Careless with India/Indian Customers.
I didn't not try X30. Waiting to buy a Nokia Phone priced less than X30.
I agree with about Little Disappointing.
The only thing I'm gonna criticize is the abscence of a charger
Can you tell me the price of the phone in Bangladesh?
No idea
@@AbdullaZaki ok.
@@AbdullaZaki another question.can i use samsung,google or any 33w pd fast charger to charge nokia x30?
@@rohimakhatun8754 yeah it should work 😁
@@AbdullaZaki last question if you don't mind which charger are you using for nokia x30?
I still Love Nokia!
Hello i bought the Nokia x30 for around 290 Usd. And I am very dissapointed with this device. The Loudspeakers are just very bad. And when you chat with Nokia they are lying i think. They say it can be solved with a software Update and say that the Problem isn't known very often. Not directly but apparently. Nokia shoulf Start a repair call and they should never lie to us. I don't know if they lie sometimes but i think. The device feels very premium the Design aspect is very good. But one thing i wish from Nokia. A screen Protector. When you buy a Glass screenprotector. Then by the side is air because the rounded corners. Its not only the thing that they are selling a device with broken Speakers. It is also the thing that they don't make anything against that. They should make a repair call and built in in every device a good Quality Speaker. I would pay for it.
I think they make bad marketing and too much phones too.
