Nokia 3.1 TA-1049 (United States)
I received the Nokia 3.1 from Amazon on 07/13/18. Unfortunately the Amazon web site defaults to the color white which is temporarily out of stock. The colors black and blue are in stock. The price is is $159. I bought the color blue with copper accents. This a GSM (AT&T also Net10 Wireless, Straight Talk, T-Mobile...) phone only and not a CDMA (Verizon also Sprint...) phone and has all the United States bands for AT&T. I do not use T-Mobile. Some phones have only one model for example the Mi A1 (International) and some phones have two models International and United States for example Nokia 3.1, 6.1... If you try using the International phone in the United States some of the LTE bands are missing and the data rate and quality is inconsistent.
The Nokia 3.1 is easy to hold and use in one hand. Call quality is excellent. I always have 4G LTE on AT&T but this depends on location. I am not a gamer but it is always a compromise for battery size, display size, pixels per inch, Random Access Memory (RAM)... I am 60 plus years old and do not have a problem with the 5.2” display, 310 pixels per inch, speed. I prefer a battery that lasts a long time not a big (heavy and thick) battery. At $159 some things are missing for example the dual rear cameras, fast charge, fingerprint scanner, and Near Field Communication (NFC) for Google Pay... This is a great phone at a great price.
LTE Bands
AT&T – 2, 4, 5, 12, 17 main band is 17 this depends on location
T-Mobile – 2, 4, 12, 66, 71 main band is 4, and 12 this depends on location
Nokia 3.1 (United States) – 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 12, 17, 28, 38, 40?
Outside
Aspect ration – 18:9 narrow and easy to hold and use with one hand
Back – camera 13 MP auto focus with LED flash, and microphone noise canceling
Bottom – microphone noise canceling, speaker (1) with electronic boost, USB B (Old) not C (New)
Display – 5.2 inches, 1440x720 HD+, 310 Pixels Per Inch (PPI) the advantages of a smaller display and lower pixel density are longer battery life
Front – camera 8 MP wide angle, earpiece, Gorilla (scratch resistant) glass with round edges
Left – two trays, micro SD, and nano SIMs (2) it is possible to have micro SD and nano SIMs (2) in the phone at the same time.
Right – power and volume
Top – 3.5 mm headphone jack
Inside
1.50 GHz Octa-Core Mediatek 6750N mobile platform with 2GB of RAM and 16GB storage
Android One – regular security and software updates and no bloatware
Battery – 2,990 mAh remember this is a 5.2 inch display with 310 PPI
Bluetooth – 4.2
FM radio – earphones are required because the earphone wire is the antenna
Sensors – accelerometer, ambient light, gyroscope, magnetometer, and proximity
Software – Android 8.0 (Oreo)
Wi-Fi – 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac (dual band 5 GHz fast) what the processor lacks in speed is made up for by the ac dual band 5 GHz if your router supports it. Average 25 Mbps on 2.4 GHz and Average 50 Mbps on 5 GHz using a range extender.
Missing
Camera – no dual rear cameras for bokeh (soften the background) and optical zoom
Charge – no fast charge but the battery does last all day long in moderate to heavy usage
Fingerprint Scanner – no fingerprint scanner you have to draw, facial recognition, or type to unlock the phone
Near Field Communication (NFC) – no NFC for Google Pay...

Bought it in July 2018 and it is now November 2018. It lags but it is manageable with a very good microSD card. The biggest problem is the battery.

Like the review title says don’t waste your money on this phone it has terrible call quality doesn’t receive texts or emails when they are sent to you will just get a slew of them at once usually hours after they are sent absolutely no memory with all the bloat ware they have pre installed and the expandable memory they list on the description does nothing to resolve that problem took this dud back after 3 days and got my money back
