Nokia - 9 PureView with 128GB Memory Cell Phone (Unlocked) - Midnight Blue

So I needed a decent phone that has the flagship criteria and I didn't want Samsung or iPhone so I looked at this Nokia 9 PV. First of all, I wouldn't pay this phone at its retail $700. Best Buy had it on sale for $450 and that's when you wanna get it. After a few days of use, the phone itself is great, fast, easy to use and it just works. Now the goods: The pOLED screen is just simply gorgeous to see. It supports HDR so watching Netflix/Youtube contents that support HDR is awesome. The phone is easy to hold but it's easily slips away from your hand. Get a case or you're gonna drop it break it lol. The 6" screen is just right on point. Not too small or big. Just feels right. No stupid notch! (that's right Apple/Google/millions other manufacturers). Now the not-so-goods The flaws come in on its greatest features...the camera itself. It takes awesome photos when you use it right. The processing though...is something else. Since all 5 lens take a photo at the same time, it could take a few seconds to compile a single photo. My time was 12 seconds...more or less. Once the processing is done, the results is amazing. Hopefully Nokia fixes this with the next software updates. Another flaw is the fingerprint sensor. It could take a few tries to recognize my thumb and sometimes I just use the pattern key instead. Hopefully software update will fix this issue. No SD card slot and no 3.5 jack...yes this still matters to me but Nokia provides an USB C adapter for it. If you take pics in RAW that 128GB storage gonna fill up soon fyi. Would I recommend it? At $700 - NO. How about at $450 - YES. Also get an open box if you can find one. I got it for $350 and it's a steal.

I have owned this phone for 11 months now (bought it the first week it was launched in US i.e. March 2019). Seemed like I made a mistake from the very beginning. The fingerprint sensor has never worked properly so that feature is pretty much useless. Initially, the processing speed of raw images was terrible and it crashed the phone but they have fixed it now. Images still take forever to process but the phone almost never crashes. Even when the camera works, the images taken are inconsistant. You never know when the image will be oversaturated and overcompensated in terms of colors. When the auto focus feature is on, you cannot focus on things by tapping on the screen, it always focuses on stuff it wants to focus on while ignoring your tap. I was tolerating all of that as I was able to use third party camera apps which seem to work better (that means the software of the camera app is the problem) The quality of the images can in no way justify the penta camera setup. I have even compared the raw images of this phone with other phones which have this raw imaging feature, but don't see any advantage at all! The biggest problem came after 9 months of use. The rear camera continuously makes a weird chirping sound when turned on (the front camera is fine). the chirping is being recorded even while taking videos and can be heard during video calls (rear camera only). I have googled this problem but can't seem to find the solution. Nokia customer care is refusing to replace my phone with a new one and wants me to send the phone for repair but who knows how long they will take. I am looking for another phone for the time being. Pros: Great materials and screen resolution; feels and looks expensive. Getting 250 GB of memory at this price is amazing. The battery life is satisfactory. The android one software is clean and is great to use. Overall, this phone has been a dissapointment. I was extremely excited about the comeback of legendary Nokia but turns out it's just another chinese company pretending to be Nokia. It seems like they have put out a partially cooked phone in a hurry.

I have had this phone for just over a year now, and this is a solid reliable phone. The fingerprint issue that plagued this phone has been addressed, and is just as responsive as any other manufacturer that has a in fingerprint scanner. Dropped it a few times and nothing is broke. Have a case and a screen protector on it. Android 10 works very well with this phone. The Camera takes amazing photos with light available, but falls short when taking night shots. Get monthly security updates and received Android 10 quick compared to other manufactures. Overall for the price, this phone is pretty darn good and would highly recommend.

It's great until you go take low-light photo. I got this phone less than a month ago, and today I finally had a chance to take it on a test on low light condition. Baam, my sluggish camera now acting up with blank boxes in some of pictures. (raw format) Buy this phone for great display with hdr, but not for the camera..

I wasn't quite sure what to expect after reading so many mixed geek reviews, but I am very very pleased, Overall performance as a phone is very good, the screen is excellent, I love the detail and color produced by the camera, and I have had far less issue with fingerprint access than previous phones I've used, Paired with the clear Nokia case, I have no complaints at all.

Upgraded to the Nokia 9 pureview from a Galaxy note 5. So far phone is fast and the display is great. Camera takes amazing true to life photos and Android one is a very clean UI. Fingerprint scanner is not good and barely works. Got this phone for 599$ and at that price point I am happy with my purchase.

okay this is simply the best mobile smartphone I've ever owned top notch processor incredible display beautiful ergonomics I'm very particularand I have no time or patience for things that don't work as they should but this phone deliversabout the only thing I could say that might be on the AP side is the fingerprint unlock and be a little bit dicey but it still is satisfactory as far as I'm concerned the phone was an incredible value and a great by I'm very satisfied with it

I am a really fan of the Nokia phone's!! My first cell phone!! Is a Nokia!! I trying Samsung?!! Sony!! But always going back with Nokia!! Because is the best!!
