Review of Nokia 5.3 smartphone with key features

Every day we see novelties on the mobile device market. Each of them has bright enough advertising that attracts a potential consumer to invest in a new device. Each manufacturer in its model tries to create a unique option, which, perhaps, its competitor does not yet have. But often, these are analogs of branded smartphones at a better price.

Today our review is subject to the Nokia 5.3 smartphone. Let's consider it from the side of the main characteristics, while noting the advantages and disadvantages of the model. Before proceeding to the description of the main parameters, we will get acquainted with the manufacturer.

 

NOKIA company

We will not be mistaken if we say that this organization is a real leader among competing companies. The name Nokia is familiar to each of us. The brand is already a confident representative of its products in the mobile phone market, having established itself there several decades ago. Let's look at the essence of the activities carried out. The company develops and implements innovative technologies in the field of communications. This Finnish company dates back to the distant 1860s. In the 90s of the twentieth century, the Nokia brand began to specialize in the mobile phone market, and, it should be noted, very successfully. Remember, every second in the early 2000s had a phone from this manufacturer. They were famous for their reliability. He almost immediately became a clear favorite. Innovations are being introduced into new items due to the growing popularity of companies such as iPhone, Samsung and many other leaders in the communications market.

Today Nokia is owned by the Chinese and operates under a different brand. It's no longer worth talking about such frenzied popularity, but still, the company remains on the market. So, for example, quite recently, just a couple of weeks ago, we were presented with a brand new smartphone called Nokia 5.3, which we will start reviewing right now. Note that in our country, sales are planned to begin in April.

 

Nokia 5.3

This smartphone has, by the way, a working title. The developers decided to be creative and gave this and another device the names of super heroes. Our sample was named after Captain America.

The phone belongs to the mid-budget category. The average price is 16 thousand rubles. As you know, Nokia does not equip models in this category with any special options and innovations, but this case seems to be an exception. This model has significant differences in a number of parameters from its predecessors. And this is highlighted in the example of an improved process that allows you to work at a faster rate. Anyway, there is a lot more worthy of attention, about everything in order and right now.

Appearance

At first glance, the smartphone looks stylish, in the spirit of modernity, and its large size attracts the eye of a potential user.

Consider a phone by its size. Horizontally the sample has a parameter of 7.66 cm, vertically - 16.43 cm. The thickness of the case is 8.5 mm. The phone, despite its rather large dimensions, weighs only 185 grams.In general, it fits comfortably in the hand, and it is convenient to use it with only one thumb.

The body is completely made of plastic, which results in a low weight. The edges of the body are rounded. For the color scheme, manufacturers have chosen the following colors:

• blue;
• sand;
• the black.

The back cover houses the main camera, which includes as many as four modules assembled in a circle (we'll talk about them a little later). Below this module is a sensor that scans the owner's fingerprint to log into the system.

Screen

Now almost all mobile phones have a large screen, because most of their time people spend on the phone, occupying themselves with watching movies from it on the Internet, or simply looking at pages on VKontakte and Instagram. Agree, doing all this on the big screen is more enjoyable.

The diagonal of the screen is 6''55 inches. Convenient for mobile games and surfing the Internet and reading books and documents. With the available resolution 720 x 1600 it has a fairly good color reproduction. Unfortunately, this model does not support FullHD, which is sad, because all analogs work with this parameter.

Processor and memory

The quality of work will depend on what processor the manufacturers have defined for the phone. The processor used in this device was created a year ago, this is the Snapdragon 665. It cannot be said that it has proven itself well in terms of power, but it copes with the main load, and there is no hang-up during use. Speaking about the operating system, we note a certain advantage of this device - it is a "naked" Android 10. The smartphone is equipped with the ability to receive regular updates (as soon as they appear). This opportunity is provided to the owner for three years.

The memory is not pleasing with its volume. In the era of high technologies, a modern person needs more space on the phone to store various information. After all, many have almost their entire life in their mobile, no matter how loud it sounds. If earlier we only needed a few gigs to store everything we need, now, the number of these gigs reaches several hundred. Let's go back to the performance of this smartphone. The developers offer us a choice of 2 RAM options - 4 GB or 6 GB. But with the built-in, things are different and we have no choice. Only 64 GB is allocated to us in order to place all the photos, videos, text files necessary for the application to work and several games. Although someone uses only a limited amount of all of the above and the stated volume, he is quite enough. But the smartphone has an additional slot for a memory card, so there are no special problems with memory, as it seems at first glance.

Camera

This parameter plays an important role, especially for those who like to take beautiful and high-quality photos. Sometimes, this factor is decisive in the purchase of a particular smartphone. Consider the characteristics in this sample.

As mentioned above, the main camera is represented by 4 sensors combined into one module. But you shouldn't take the number of cameras as an indicator of high-quality and highly detailed photos. The main camera has a parameter of only 13 megapixels. For comparison, many smartphones have a front camera of this quality, and here - the main one. In addition, there is a 5 megapixel wide-angle camera and the other two 2 megapixels are a macro camera and a frame depth sensor. Although the importance of developing the latter is not clear, since no particular burden is imposed on them. But still, the buyer, for sure, will be interested in the number 4 in the technical characteristics of this parameter, for sure, this is the calculation. There is a night mode and a mode for combining several frames into a single shot of good quality. The smartphone is deprived of the ability to shoot video in 4K quality. You shouldn't expect anything supernatural from the front camera, because it is only 8 MP. By the way, it is indicated by a drop in the center at the top of the screen.

Battery

The battery capacity will satisfy any user, as it has an indicator of 4000 mAh.This is enough to use the smartphone without recharging for up to 2 days with a moderate load. It is possible to charge the phone using fast charging. Only its power is not cosmic, only 10 W, but in emergency cases it can help out great.

Specifications

• affordable price;
• availability of Android One;
• performance at a decent level;

• front camera of average quality;
• no wireless charging.

Conclusion

The smartphone does an excellent job with its main load.

Each product has its own consumer. This smartphone is aimed at people who like to surf the Internet (a large enough screen allows you to watch movies and read books in comfort). You can also play various games on it, but not with too complex strategies. You can quickly charge your smartphone using a special battery. But this speed is hardly comparable to analog models from other manufacturers.

The availability of updates adds a clear plus to this model. After all, this ensures uninterrupted functioning and the ability to keep up with the times. In the end, Nokia has created a good phone at an affordable price. We are waiting for new developments from the brand of even better quality and functionality.
