With five cameras on the back, the Nokia 9 PureView will be a headline grabber from the moment its released! The Penta-lens camera module is certainly the PureView's Unique Selling Point and will include an autofocus module, LED flash and five camera sensors. Rumours suggest the sensors will consist of RGB, monochrome, telephoto, wide-angle angle and deep-sensing lenses, with the ability to shoot 64-megapixel resolution images for stunning clarity.


There are claims the Nokia 9 PureView will also come equipped with "Light" camera technology made by a company that specializes in “computational photography”; this promises exciting features such as lossless zoom, or 3D depth mapping. The smartphone might also be capable of shooting images through all the five sensors at the same time and being able to capture 10 times more light in low-light conditions.


Photographers certainly have plenty to look forward to. But what about the rest of the phone? There is speculation the Nokia 9 PureView will have a 5.99-inch AMOLED display that produces quad HD+ resolution and carries support for HDR10. A Snapdragon 845 chipset is rumoured to power the smartphone, while a big 4, 150mAh battery should keep the PureView going for hours on end.


We'll soon know what is true, and what isn't, when the phone is released in the near future. If all the rumours about the camera set up are true, the PureView will mean pure delight for photographers!

Nice phone

Decent handset, good quality build. Screen is excellent, sound is better than most. Awesome camera but not really for the casual everyday snapper! Very good selfie camera. Runs very well, speedy. Lenty of storage onboard. Only let down is the fingerprint scanner. Temperamental best describes it.

Nokia 9 PureView Smartphone Review

What started out as an ambitious idea ended up in a disappointment. The Nokia 9 PureView's quintuple camera is certainly not anything special or even particularly good. Its camera app is slow and unresponsive, which further belittles the overall impression of this smartphone camera.
Pros:
  • dust and waterproof to IP67
  • Android 9 & Android One
  • good GPS
  • NFC
  • Bluetooth 5.0
  • LTE Cat.16
  • very bright OLED display
  • fast SoC
Cons:
  • slow USB-C port
  • disappointing camera
  • fingerprint sensor with moderate detection rate
  • PWM flicker
  • throttling under load
  • weak speaker
  • short battery life

Nokia 9 Pureview Review: 5 cameras, Zeiss lens. Nuff said!

Ever since Microsoft's CEO was replaced by Satya Nadela and their purchase of Nokia's mobile phone business was almost completely dissolved, I have been patiently waiting for Nokia to rise from the ashes and release a real flagship phone with some amazing camera hardware.
Pros:
  • - Occasionally amazing 12Mp photos
  • - DNG support for photos
  • - Android One is fast & stable
  • - Qi wireless charging
  • - Nicely designed blue glass body
  • - VoLTE and VoWiFi
Cons:
  • 5 rear cameras are all the same focal length (no multi-camera zoom
  • 5 rear cameras are merged into one with no user control
  • 5 rear cameras are extremely slow to process
  • No headphone jack
  • Body is extremely slippery
  • In-screen fingerprint scanner isn't as good as others

I bought this on the 17Th March, and was hoping for so much what with the name of Nokia, even though they are using the name under liecense. I was so happy to get the phone, however this did not last long, the fingerprint sensor was non responsive , and the screen is also not very responsive and you...

Nokia 9 PureView review: A flawed, ambitious, endearing flagship

The Nokia 9 PureView feels like a great foundation for the next generation of Nokia devices, but it doesn't feel like a foundation I'm rushing to lean on just yet.
Pros:
  • Incredible camera
  • Slick software
Cons:
  • Incredibly slow camera
  • Iffy battery life

Nice camera!

Able to capture considerably more detail in photos than my Sony Xperia XZ Premium which I purchased in 2017. Slight downside is there's no expendable memory slot for Micro SD cards, fingerprint sensor isn't sensitive so if you've got naturally moist / sweaty hands then you better of just typing in...

Will return it after 1 day of use. Is not acceptable with how the built-in fingerprint sensor works. It works 2/10 times. With Nokia support made a soft reset and also put the same finger 5 times just to secure up. Still the same problem.
