Nokia 7.1 launched: Specs, features, price and everything you need to know

Nokia 7.1 the second generation of its hero mid-range lineup a device that shows a lot of the global strategy Nokia's planning which we're glad now includes the United States, even more, reporting from New York City.

let's go hands-on you know I just can't deny how impressed I am with a new Nokia now under the helm of HMD this is barely the second year the company has changed its strategy and it's already reached the global top 10 and is top 5 and a crazy 25 markets the company has three key pillars to define its product strategy focused mainly on design performance and the best of Google the Nokia 7.1 which you could also call the new Nokia 7 is a clear example of all of this is actually designed to be a compact phone that's easy to handle

we've got a beautiful glass in the front and the back with 2.5 D curved edges for better feel it's matched by one piece of aluminum with a die-cast metal core internally to enhance durability the CNC machine champers provide two colors that serve the purpose of making it seems like jewelry and which varied depending on the gloss midnight blue or gloss steel option that you pick there's a 5.84 inch full HD plus LCD at 19:9 aspect ratio that looks pretty sharp Nokia dubs at its pure display which is not just capable of HDR 10.

The Nokia 7.1 sports a 5.84-inch FHD+ 

(2246x1080) IPS LCD PureDisplay with a 19:9 aspect ratio

But can actually convert anything into HDR meaning even games can take benefit of this sucked inside we have the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 6-3 6 processor options for 3 or 4 gigs of ram depending on the choice of either 32 or 64 gigs of storage respectively and with support for micro is the expansion up to 400 gigs.

The phone is powered by an octa-core 
Snapdragon 636 chipset

There's a 3060 million Bauer battery with quick charge through USB-C and the company uses special tuning on the display to adapt to your environment in a way that takes the interns further aside from all the power efficiency that the 636 already provides to match the looks we have pure Android one running the show this means stock Android experiences all around with a very fluid operation regardless of the task the device will ship with Android or EO out of the box but upgrades for Android pi are slated already for the end of next month.

It will ship with Android 8.1 Oreo and will

 be updated to Android 9 Pie soon

Now one of the coolest things about this phone is the camera package mainly because it's really hard to find all this combo in one premium mid-ranger we start with the fact that we have Zeiss optics one sensor being of 12 megapixels of 1.8 aperture and 1.2 8 microns with a secondary camera of 5 megapixels providing depth information the selfie cameras have 8 megapixels that have 2 aperture as well and then there are some neat tricks that are rare to find the mid-range errs like.

The Nokia 7.1 sports a dual camera setup that includes a 12-megapixel primary sensor with f/1.8 aperture and a 5-megapixel secondary sensor.

For example the fact that we've got dual phase autofocus HDR photography a feature called life bokeh which has a slider to tone the amount of blur while taking a shot and there's even selfie bokeh through AI there are even manual photo controls tucked inside the settings which again are hard to find at a mid-range errand probably one of the coolest things was the dual sight feature which pretty much means a both e mode meaning you can share a story from both cameras at the same time and the phone even offers an option for you to frame one angle larger than the other instead of the standard 50/50 if there's one thing that you want to highlight more than the other.

The 3GB options will come with 32GB of internal storage while the 4GB variant will come with 64GB of internal storage. Both the options will support storage expandability up to 400GB via microSD card.

So yes this is the new Nokia 7.13 orders begin on October 5th on Amazon Best Buy and B&H; at a starting price of just 349 bucks and I'm talking about the 4 gigs 64 gig variant with dual-sim capabilities as well and then it reaches stores on Best Buy on November 4th I have to admit that I  really like the package for the price and mainly with this gloss steel variant which I find very unique so far let us know what you think in the comments about the new Nokia 7.1.
