Nokia 3 review
We had high hopes for the Nokia 3, but the final phone is a bit of a disappointment. We can't deny that it looks absolutely fantastic for the price, and we're fans of Nokia's decision to stick to stock Android, but it's just cut too many corners on the internal specs to make the 3 stand out amid a...

Nokia 3 review
It may look like one of the best cheap phones on the market but the Nokia 3 is style over substance, struggling with long load times and poor battery life.
Pros:
- Solid build quality and premium design
- Remarkably Low price
- Stock Android software works great
Cons:
- Disappointing performance may become frustrating
- Limited storage if you want to download lots
- Middling battery life may be an issue

Nokia 3
The phone has a very short battery life, I have had to charge every day. Wont accept calls from callers not in my contacts list. Very sad, also the price drop of recent is half of what I paid.

Nokia 3
The Nokia 3 is the lowest-end of Nokia's new line of Android phones. It's on sale in the UK for £120, but you will have to make sacrifices for that price. That converts to $156 or AU$200, although Nokia has no plans to bring the phone to the US. The biggest problems are in the processor performance.
Pros:
- The Android-based Nokia 3 is dirt-cheap
- looks good and is comfortable to hold in one hand
Cons:
- Its lack of power makes using the phone sluggish and frustrating

Nokia 3 review: The Nokia 3 is cheap and you'll know it
The Nokia 3 sacrifices too much processing power to achieve its low price. You’re better off spending a bit more on the Motorola Moto G5.

Nokia 3 Smartphone Review
The Nokia 3 is an almost solid entry-level smartphone, which would probably be enough for a successful market start in this category. However, the device also surprises us with really good rates in some places, such as screen brightness, contrast, power consumption or the many available LTE bands.
Pros:
- metal bezel
- stylish casing
- relatively pure Android
- comparatively many LTE bands
- loud speakers and earpieces
- bright
- high-contrast screen
- low temperatures
- low power consumption
Cons:
- poor camera quality
- inaccurate GPS
- microphone a bit too insensitive
- heterogeneous screen illumination
- strong bluish tint
- non-removable battery

Nokia 3 review: the Redmi 4A should be your first choice
The Nokia 3 isn't going to wow you in any particular area, but it does have pure Android and the promise of regular security updates. Me I'd probably get the Redmi 4A instead, offering a 13MP main camera and double the storage (32GB). Or I'd save a few hundred rand to get the long-lasting Redmi 4X.

Aluminium design The Nokia 3 has a precision machined aluminium frame, formed out of a single piece of aluminium. Nicely rounded edges give this Nokia phone that modern look and while there may be a polycarbonate back, you do at least get to enjoy a touch of premium materials.

Surprise!
I had read many reviews that weren't too enamoured with the new Nokia 3 but having used it now for a couple of weeks I find it every bit as good as more expensive phones. Excellent buy.
