Nokia 10 is one of the latest smartphones out there, and it was announced in January and released in April 2020. The device is enigmatic in the sense that it combines outdated features with the latest ones. Is the Nokia 10 a winner? Let’s see.
Nokia 10 Display
The display type of Nokia 10 shows that it is a Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen with multi-touch, up to 10 fingers. It is a single display. Furthermore, the screen size is 6.0 inches, which is not too large and not too small. Its resolution is a massive 2160 x 3840 pixels. The pixel density is 734 PPI, and sure enough, the phone comes with a bezel-less display. For protection, it has Corning Gorilla Glass 5.
Nokia 10 Processor
Nokia 10 boasts Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 as the chipset that drives operations in the device. Also, the CPU is clocked at 2.45 GHz, while it also has Adreno 540 GPU. These work with 64-bit architecture.
Storage Features
Nokia 10 comes with 6 GB of RAM, following the fad of flagship devices in 2024. It also exhibits that trend in the storage capacity of 128 GB, which is expandable up to 256 GB with a microSD card. However, the RAM can’t be expanded.
Battery Capacity
Powering the Nokia 10 is a good Li-Po 4000 mAh battery, which comes with fast charging v4.0 technology. There’s no wireless charging support for the device. Also, this battery is not user-replaceable. Count on the battery to provide up to 48 hours backup on normal usage.
Software Features & Sensors
For Nokia 10, Android v7.1 runs the show. It is also a poor idea because this OS may not be able to balance up with some of the features of the Nokia 10. The sensors inside the device are fingerprint, gyro, proximity, light, compass, and accelerometer.
Speaker & Call Quality
The Nokia 10 arrived with a capable loudspeaker that is placed below the display. It offers good quality sounds. There’s also a microphone to make recordings audible. In addition, the phone has a 3.5mm audio jack for noise cancellation. Consequently, the call quality is excellent.
Camera, Video & Image Quality
HMD keeps it simple here. Nokia 10 has just two cameras at the rear. Then it has one at the front. So, rear cameras are 16 MP + 8 MP. At the from for selfies is a 13 MP shooter. The image quality is mediocre because it is only able to produce 4616 x 3464 pixels images. That is the highest quality of image the phone produces. Video recording can be done at 1920 x 1080 @ 30fps. The camera features include autofocus, face detection, digital zoom, touch to focus, and more.
Nokia 10 Price
The Nokia 10 sells for $515, which is about 197,500 Naira in Nigeria. This price may change at any time.
The Verdict
Strange as it may seem, Nokia 10 has many excellent features. The display features are so high that only a few 2020 smartphones measure up. Following that, the performance level ordinarily could be regarded as excellent because of the Snapdragon chipset, but it combines with outdated Android software. Further, the camera department has nothing much to talk about, so is the battery capacity, which is good. However, the good thing is that some good verdicts have been seen online, and fans have spoken in favor of the device.
