The Nokia 3.1 is a smartphone that picks its wars wisely. If you're looking to fight those same battles on a budget, it shouldn't be overlooked.

The Nokia 3.1 doesn't look like a budget phone because the design gives it a premium appearance, and feel.
The Nokia 3.1 stands out in a crowded field due to it cool curves and diamond-cut aluminium sides. The curved back and sculpted Corning glass display also combine to make this a comfortable phone to hold onto.
While this is a compact phone, the screen space is deceptively large thanks to the 18:9 ratio which seems to squeeze every millimetre out of the5.2ТТHD+ display. Watch a movie on the Nokia 3.1 and you'll be immersed in what seems like a big screen in no time.
The rear camera is a 13 MP auto-focus with LED flash that takes clearly detailed photos while you're out and about. If you need to fit a crowd into your next selfie, you'll love the 8 MP front camera with a wide 84.6-degree field of view.
The Nokia 3.1 benefits from Android One, a Google designed software experience. Android One offers easy to use interface, pre-installed apps, and free, unlimited photo storage with Google Photos. Regular security updates and two years of OS upgrades also means less security hassles.
Making everything hum nicely, and adding to the impression that this is much more than a budget phone, is the Octa-Core processor, which comfortably handles AR gaming or multitasking between apps.

UPDATE: Nokia has announced a successor to the Nokia 3: the Nokia 3.1. The new model will hit shelves in June 2018 for €139 (around £130) for the 16GB and 2GB RAM model and around €169 (around £160) for the 32GB and 3GB RAM phone.
The Nokia brand has been through an incredible transformation in recent years, under the guidance of HMD Global. Its products have received almost universal praise, so much so that we're now at a point when I would honestly recommend a Nokia phone ahead of pretty much anything else in the...
If you need a new inexpensive smartphone without superfluous bells and whistles, take a peek at the Nokia 3.1. This month we had the Nokia 3.1 in-pocket for review and came away suitably impressed.
Industrial Design is top-notch; Android One means updates; OS is simple and easy to use; Nokia's apps are good and helpful; Value outweighs cost
Display is small (because phone is small; External speaker lacks range; Vibrator isn't at all subtle; Battery is OK; not amazing; not bad; Low-light photography/video isn't great
I was skeptical when I ordered the Nokia 3.1. But this phone is awesome. It got most of the features I was looking for: -Great form factor-easy to hold in one hand -Dual SIM - 3G/2G on both -Separate SD card slot and the card can be used as internal memory.
Round two for the Nokia 3, which has been revised in terms of both looks and internal hardware. For less than $160 you get a decently equipped Android One smartphone made by HMD Global. Find out what we think in our extensive review.
bright display; accurate GPS; full-fledged dual SIM; expandable memory; fast Wi-Fi; Android One
mediocre speaker; no fingerprint reader; old SoC; not much memory
The Nokia 6.1 is our favorite budget smartphone under $300, and HMD Global - the company licensing the Nokia brand name and designing these phones - has introduced an even more affordable option to the U.S. market.
Solid build quality; Simple software; Android One program; Good battery life
No fingerprint sensor; Frustratingly slow camera; 16GB of storage is not enough; Poor performance; Dim display
Nokia 3.1 C Nokia 3.1 A is one of the latest Nokia device released for the AT&T network in the United States of America. The device was launched along with the Nokia 3.1 C , for the Cricket network in the US.
No other manufacturer has gone all in with pure Android quite like HMD Global and Nokia. The company has openly declared that all of their phones would run pure Android via Android One and Android Go, and they've been true to their word so far.
It still feels strange and uncanny to describe Nokia as a challenger in the mobile space - but I really struggle to find another way to describe the brand’s M.O. in 2018.
