My new Nokia G60

#1

Post by 95438756 »

So bought a Nokia G60 mainly because of it being a "poor man's Nokia X30" - almost half the prices with pretty much the same, if ever so slightly lower specs. This will be used on EIR and also act as my broadband connection for my gaming and business laptops. This thread will be beefed up as my experience develops.

Well, I'm one that would be interested. I have used Pixel phones for the past three phones but the current phone is on its last legs (user inflicted). The current pixel is too dear.

Do Nokia still offer vanilla Android? I know they had phones that were in the Android one program, which is pretty much vanilla, much like the Pixels. My last 2 phones have also been Pixels and before that OnePlus. I'd never move from vanilla Android, so clean and regular updates.

Initial impressions

Better connection than my Pixel 3A:
The G60s screen shows '5G' and then changes without notification to '4G'

Better audio, better stereo can be heard

The only negative on the g60 compared to the pixel isThe camera: less quality video on the g60.

If you don't have a 5G contract you need to disable it as it will affect battery life hopping back to 4G

Disable it anyway if you don't have a 5G plan
