Nokia 5.1 16GB

Stylish and reliable

Great looking phone, very slim and stylish in tempered blue. Unlike apple and Samsung the Nokia 5 doesn't come loaded with bloatware and irritating ads. Everything runs smoothly. So far very reliable and so uncomplicated to get to know and use. Would highly recommend.

Nokia 5.1 Review

The Nokia 5.1 is an imperfect smartphone that nevertheless offers best-in-class design and screen, despite poor performance and battery life. It's also very affordable.

Nokia 5.1 review

For less than £200, the Nokia 5.1 is certainly a tempting option for those on a budget. It looks stylish, is comfortable to use and boasts a gorgeous 18:9 display with a higher resolution than some flagship smartphones, but the performance isn’t the best that we’ve seen. There’s a slight delay opening and closing apps, though in-app performance is much smoother. One department it can’t compete in is game performance; it’s okay with basic 2D games but frankly isn’t up to the task of running something like PUBG Mobile.
