Nokia 7 v/s 7.1

www.bankimpandey.oooThe Nokia company has tried to incorporate Nokia 7.1 a deserving successor to the 7, so they improved the phone from inward and outward both. Everyone is not excited about the notch, but there are fewer bezels on all sides and improved resolution will certainly attract the younger generation. The new cameras are the notable improvement on the Nokia 7.1. The rear main camera is synchronized for low light and the secondary 5MP sensor gives the ability of portrait mode. If we talk about the front side, then we see an 8MP camera with a wide angle capable of producing sharper selfies than the 5MP of the previous generation. The only needed improvement was in battery section for 06 inches display which is only 3,600 mAh, which is only 60 mAh addition to previous generations.

Nokia 7.1 Design and hardware

Like its predecessor, the Nokia 7.1 has the glass with aluminum in front and rear. But the construction here is very sophisticated. Both glass panels have the 2.5D curvature so that the phone can feel smooth in the hand. The front is covered by Gorilla Glass 3. Aluminum frame 6000-series is cut from solid pieces of aluminum. Nokia compares it to a die-cast design. The edges of the frame are sold for comfort, and later a coat of accent paint for them has been applied (light blue on the steel model and light blue on the midnight blue). Add to the stylish presence of Nokia 7.1 and let it look different Nokia, we have become familiar through Nokia 7 Plus. Potential Nokia 7.1 buyers will appreciate 3.5mm headphone jacks. Like its predecessor, Nokia 7.1 has a USB-C jack.

The Nokia 7.1 looks like the Nokia 6.1 Plus, mainly due to the front 5.84 inch LCD. This is a 1080x2280px screen with a Notch, resulting in a 19: 9 aspect ratio. They call it a PureView display and it supports HDR 10 basically and it can also upscale quality like HDR of any SD video in real time. The display has high contrast (1,000,000: 1 dynamic contrast ratio), especially for LCD, which means black is dark and the color is contrast. Nokia promises that the panel will be very good in bright light for its adaptive mode. Nokia 7.1 feels both light and dense. The strong aluminum frame also adds to the experience of tolerance. The Nokia 7.1 has a similar footprint and front design for the Xiamii Mi A2 Lite, but despite the fact that it is 5.84-inch identical, despite this, there is a more compact and very light device. Volume and power buttons are on the right side of the phone, and there is a single speaker below.

Nokia now has a fingerprint scanner under the dual camera. The rest of the rest is left bare. The smooth glass panel can cheat you thinking about the wireless charging of the Nokia 7.1, but it is not. Steel and Midnight Blue is two color variants that are offered by the Nokia 7.1. Both have their own unique appeal, but the steel version is undoubtedly the eye catcher for copper accents and sometimes changing gray, which is cool blue with a light and the other looks cool blue. Nokia talked about the quality and integrity of Nokia 7.1 build, but you will need 5 minutes to feel the device in your hands. Nokia 7.1 is stronger than its predecessor and represents a collision in quality and construction.

Nokia 7.1 Camera

www.bankimpandey.ooo

The back curved dual camera has a bright F / 1.8 lens with 12 mp of the main snapper, and the larger 1.28μm pixels correspond to a secondary 5 MPF / 2.4 1.12μm depth-sensing camera, which is a live box (or simple words Portrait Mode) Compare that to Nokia X6 on 16 MPF / 2.0 + 5 MPF / 2.4 Dual Snapper and you can see that 7.1 is a more capable shooter on the least paper in low light.

Nokia 7.1-Software-wise

Nokia has equipped 7.1 with a full range of camera options, including Pro Mode, new live BOK mode, which allows background adjustment in real-time, and of course both of them. Nokia 7.1 can capture bothies — which means it can shoot video and still in both — front and rear cameras simultaneously. Both of them can also live streams. And with Nokia 7.1, you can change the ratio between 1/1, 1/3 and 2/3. Another new feature is the ability to shoot on both sides at one time — so that you can be in both boat shots. Live Bokhey, in Portrait Mode, is available with Camera App

For video recording, this phone will record video up to 1080p @ 30fps only. At least, the video has the advantage of stabilization with EIS and360-degree spatial audio. Nokia 7.1 is the latest addition to the line of Android One device. So this means that Nokia 7.1 will get Android 9 pie as next month, and platform updates will be available for two years and there will be security updates for three. Android One also ensures quick updates.

Nokia 7.1Verdict:

At this specification, the Nokia 7.1 is really a great deal, if you are looking for faster and stock Android experience, fluid, and snappy UI, smoother overall performance, premium design, decent display and cameras with relatively good battery life.
