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

The Nokia 7 Plus is one of the better mid-range phones on the market and has one of the best cameras on a device of its price. The design is close to premium in feel and the display is top notch (without an actual notch).

The Nokia brand may never again be as huge as it was in the 1990s, but new owner HMD is building up a solid line-up of Android handsets – and the Nokia 7 Plus is perhaps its most persuasive offering yet.

The Nokia 7 Plus is one of the best-value big-screen phones you’ll find. It’s £120 cheaper than the OnePlus 6 and £50 cheaper than the much smaller Honor 10. And they are already value royalty. Are those phones better? If you’re into an ultra slim surround notched look, sure. However, if you want a step up from the Moto G6 Plus without spending £400 or more, the Nokia 7 Plus is the phone to check out.

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.

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.

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

The Nokia 7 Plus is a well-rounded mid-range smartphone with a very capable specifications sheet, no-frills Android experience, and good-looking chassis. You'd be hard-pressed to find a flaw with this device, really.

Great build quality and premium design Stock Android Solid; reliable performance Excellent battery life

Average audio performance Low-light camera performance needs improvement

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.
