Nokia 6.2 smartphone - pros and cons

The global market is expanding the range in the smartphone segment. 60% of the population use smartphones, 30% are happy owners of mobile phones and only 10% do not have such gadgets. Samsung and Apple are still the top sellers, with over 80% of the profits. It should be understood that the new flagship models cost up to $ 1000. The Chinese vendors are armed with fingerprint scanners built into the cameras, extremely fast battery charging and the implementation of artificial intelligence. Smartphones of such famous brands as Sony or Nokia are not inferior to their positions. It is about the new Nokia 6.2 that will be discussed in this article.

Artificial intelligence of Nokia smartphones is a guarantee of customer interest. European production is an added bonus for the quality standard.

Statistics: 50% of all smartphones sold during the year are smartphones of the middle price segment. Consequently, the competition in this sector is very strong.

How to choose the right smartphone

Functional

For what purposes the device is purchased is a very important question. For communication, including on social networks, the availability of the Internet at hand, the use of convenient applications - almost every middle-class smartphone has such capabilities.

The cost

If the client does not strive for a newfangled brand and "heavy" applications, for example, for photo processing, are not needed, then you can get by with a budget option. For games at medium settings, super powerful units are also not required, the price for "gaming" smartphones is democratic. If the user is an avid and advanced gamer, then it will be unlikely to find a powerful unit among budget and even medium-priced devices.

Which company is better

Each manufacturer is simultaneously keeping pace with progress and bets on "proprietary" features. In this case, in addition to the price, you should refer to the existing experience of using this or that gadget, listen to reviews, familiarize yourself with the advantages of new products on the market, and take into account the popularity of the models.

The most popular smartphones of the budget group at the time of this writing:

1. Xiaomi Redmi 6a on Android, with support for two SIM cards,
2. Oppo A5s on Android 8.1. 2 sim cards, screen 6.2 inches;
3. Oppo A1k on Android 9.0 Dual SIM, 6.1 inch screen;
4. Honor 10 Android 9.0, dual SIM, 6.21 inch screen;
5. Honor 8a on Android 9.0. 2 SIM cards;
6. Nokia 2.2 on Android 9.0, dual SIM, 5.71-inch screen;
7. Samsung Galaxy A20, Android 9.0, 2 sim cards, 6.4 inches screen.

As you can see from the list, all popular budget smartphones work mainly on Android 9.0, with two SIM cards and a large display.

Therefore, the new Nokia 6.2 has every chance to take a place in the top ten among mid-range smartphones.

Selection errors

Typical Buyer Misses:

1. every second consumer who made his choice of a smartphone based on advertising, as a rule, overpays up to 30% of the cost;
2. trust in the blogger - cases when a review of a top smartphone is part of an advertising campaign have become natural, the higher the popularity of the blogger, the less chance of hearing the real characteristics of the gadget;
3. A consultant in a store is also prone to more expensive sales, so you should not bribe with supposedly additional features and dubious advantages of a smartphone.

What to do? Not everyone will dare to study thematic resources, therefore the amount allocated for the purchase and the requirements for functionality remain priority points.

Nokia 6.2

Nokia 6.2 is expected to hit the market in October 2019.

4K video recording for a budget phone is a rarity and a big advantage. This format got its name due to the fact that 4000 horizontal pixels were obtained in a frame, while in a standard 1080p video file there are four times less of them in area. Recording speed 30 frames per second. By compressing the frame to 1080p, you can get a guarantee of increased detail, sharpness, color quality. In addition, noise and graininess are reduced, which will affect the clarity of the video. To compress a video, there is no need to use editing programs, with an elementary upload to YouTube, automatic compression occurs.
