Nokia G11 Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos

Nokia G11 - slightly simplified

The segment of budget smartphones today looks far from being as hopeless as a few more years. If desired, even for a small amount of money, it is possible to find a reliable mobile assistant that is not annoying with the slowness of the interface and other problems. For example, such is the hero of today's review from Nokia.

The appearance of the novelty literally repeats that of the more expensive G21. Only the inscription about the 50-megapixel camera has disappeared, and the bottom frame of the screen has become thicker. The texture of the back panel, the camera block and the side fingerprint sensor are transferred without changes, which is a plus for an inexpensive Android device. The design of the 8-megapixel selfie camera would also have to be redone ... The 6.5-inch IPS display is unlikely to delight the buyer due to the mediocre clarity of the displayed image. This is because of the HD+ resolution. The margin of brightness allows the user to comfortably use the gadget in almost any lighting conditions. Only the direct rays of the summer sun will make you look for a shadow. The smoothness of the picture is also good at a refresh rate of 90Hz .

Specifications reveal the device on the positive side. The same Unisoc Tiger T606 CPU and Mali G57MC1 video accelerator are combined with 3GB/4GB RAM to ensure smooth operation of Android 11, messengers, browsers, photo editors and similar applications. Those who want to try out Android games need to moderate their ardor. If PUBG or World Of Tanks submit to the chipset, then the same words cannot be said about Genshin Impact. The power consumption of the processor is modest, so one charge of the 5050mAh battery will last for one and a half or even two days. 32/64GB of ROM is not the most voluminous internal storage by today's standards, so using the microSD card slot is highly recommended. Write down NFC contactless payment as pluses.

The only serious simplification of the phablet is its photo capabilities. 13- and 2-megapixel photomodules are frankly bad at evening and night shooting, so you will have to be content with only daytime shots. It is under such scenarios that photos will not be devoid of detail, however, for a clear frame, sometimes you need to take a couple of takes. To reduce the cost, the developer also had to sacrifice stereo sound. However, it was precisely such metamorphoses that helped the device find an excellent balance between price and quality.
