Design and Display

Although not premium flagship grade, the Nokia 5.1 has a nice finish and instead of the plastic build in the former it has a metallic build.

It is also commendable that the smartphone has the trendy 18:9 aspect ratio and an exquisite craftsmanship. You d also be surprised at how many time Nokia is pasted on the smartphone and that is 3 times which is a bit unwarranted.

You would find that things are now better in the area of visuals compared to the former Nokia 5. The screen is 0.3-inch bigger, up to 5.5-inch in size and comes with 2160 x 1080 pixels and a pixel density of 429 PPI.

You also find that almost all the bezels at the side are absent but prominent at the top and bottom area of the display.

You may also be interested in the Nokia G20, the Nokia G10, the Nokia T20, the Nokia C20, and the Nokia C10.

Battery and Camera

If you are in search of a smartphone with large battery capacity, I would advise you look somewhere else. The Nokia 5.1 only comes with a 2, 970mAh battery which is just a mediocre capacity by all standard. It also charges through MicroUSB 2.0 instead of the latest USB Type-C option.

In the area of optics,  the Nokia smartphone has a competent camera in place at least a better one. Not signing off with the reigning dual camera seen in most recent phones, the smartphone has a single 16MP camera at the back and an 8MP option up front.

The rest of the details captures a 2GB internal memory as well as another having 3GB RAM both having 16GB and 32GB storage space built-in respectively. If need be, this can be expanded up to 256GB using an SD card in place of one of the SIM. There is a clean Android 8.1 OS otherwise known as Android One.
