  • In this video I talk about the most affordable smartphone that was recently announced by Nokia Mobile, the Nokia C31. This entry level, affordable smartphone comes with plenty of smarts but not without its own set of compromises in order to achieve a $130 starting price. The Nokia C31 comes with a 6.7" Display, a 5050 mAh battery, a 13Mp main camera and ships with stock Android 12 out of the box. It's aimed at first-time smartphone buyers looking to upgrade from a feature phone.

    It’s not a phone that me or you would really be interested in, but it’s not aimed at us to be fair. An easy way to speed up the phone a little is to switch off animations and change navigation to manual controls from gestures. But you already knew that lol. Brief but informative video. And i surprised it has the Google camera app. That’s really good. Till the next video✌️

      You can improve the performance even further by setting the "Background process limit" to 4 in developer settings.
      That helped massively on my Nokia 5.3

      ​@@TangibleCheeseavoid any Nokia devices, these days , Oppo, Vivo, Samsung offers more than that and besides nostalgia, Nokia doesn't offer anything serious.
      Buy a blackview A52 instead, infinitely cheaper, same sc9863a1 chipset, same android 12 go edition, better screen quality with saturated colors but you get a USB C port instead of the dreaded micro USB that Nokia offers.

    Not sure if this quote is a compliment or the nicest way to criticize the phone in a positive tone, but this is very thoughtfully put.
    I hope HMD will find the way to portray Nokia as a good brand for the future, not as the shadow of former past

    For what it is this phone is pretty good. As you said, maybe for younger/first time or older consumers this is just the right entry device. Or maybe as a secondary travel device if you don't want to risk your more expensive daily driver when abroad. Or it can be a really good alternative for someone on a very tight budget who doesn't want a feature or "dumb" phone only but a basic phone with some smartphone capabilities. There seems to be somekind of negative fixation and derision of phone like these. For many this is a good option to have.

Because I know them…aka family and friends! Same for SOME parents who may not want to buy their younger children a $1,000 dollar IPhone, so they get them this cheaper alternative instead. Not everyone can afford flagship devices either. This at least is an affords choice. Clear enough?

    This should be a Android Go Edition phone like the C21 and C30 and use either T606 or T610. I have a secondary phone a Realme C30 2/32gb Android Go with T612 fast and smooth no need to download lite version of apps. Faster than phones on 150 usd price range with Helio G35 or P35 and as good as phones with Helio G70/G80. Used to have Nokia 1 and Nokia 2.1 as 2nd phones too. Missing only the FM Radio on Realme.

    Looks like HMD has departed from android go on newer C series. Looking at C31 website, it runs on regular Android and seeing it comes with GCam instead of Camera Go seems to prove it
    Also mind dumping that GCam and put it in your nokiamob article? If it works well with other phones, that would be neat seeing GCam ports from Pixel is hit or miss
