HMD Global launched the Nokia 7 Plus along with a range of smartphones in its Android One line-up in India earlier this month. This is the company's first smartphones with 18:9 aspect ratio display.

Solid build quality; Large 6-inch 18:9 screen; Good cameras; Good performance; Stock Android Oreo with Treble; A/B seamless updates

Priced slightly on the higher side; Hybrid Dual SIM might not be preferred by everyone; No notification LED

Nokia 7 Plus review: Priced at Rs 25,999, this is claimed to be a 'flagship for everyone.' Here's how Nokia 7 Plus performed in our review.

I've had this phone nearly 2 weeks and I love it. It's fast and smooth, the screen is lovely, and the battery lasts over 24 hours even at hight usage. The camera takes really good photos, Feels like a flagship phone for a mid range price.

Right or wrong, whether rose-tinted by selective memory or just fuelled by affection fanned by absence, there is a widespread perception that Nokia always made devices that were solid rather than spectacular and did not charge the earth for them.

Distinct design; Terrific battery life; Stock Android; with promised updates; Generally smooth performance

Cameras not the greatest in low and bright light; No water and dust resistance; Can be seen as "expensive" in some quarters

Original design; Unique details; Large display; Zeiss optics; Long-lasting battery; Android One

Slightly above average price; Nokia camera app could use some improvement

A more practical screen shape The Nokia 7 Plus brings with it a more practical screen shape. The 6" display is longer but thinner and this has two advantages. The first is that it is easier to hold because the phone has the same width as a typical phone with a 5.5" display.

The phone is a dual SIM. It's very easy to use and I find I only have to charge the battery every day and a half. It is much better than the other big players on the market. Great value for money.

The Nokia 7 Plus is one of Nokia's biggest phones, physically. And, arguably, one of its most important phones. It's positioned towards the middle of Nokia's pack, offering a little more than the Nokia 6.1, but not reaching up to the flagship Nokia 8 grade.

Solid build quality; Good camera performance; 2x zoom that few others offer; Capacious battery

Larger design than needed; Weak speakers; Camera slow to launch; Wi-Fi rebooting issue

You've got to give the ‘new' Nokia credit for trying. Since taking control of the iconic brand name in 2017, HMD has released a number of devices both new and inspired by classic Nokias of old. Of all the phones released so far, the Nokia 7 Plus is the device that impresses.

Big; bright screen; Impressive battery life; Android One has potential

Lots of app crashes and software bugs; Could do with some design tweaks

Buyers of the Nokia 7 Plus will enjoy timely software updates, stock Android and up-to-date security patches thanks to the Android One Program. Whether the new mid-range smartphone with the brand-new Snapdragon 660 can also impress in terms of hardware, you can learn in our extensive review.
