What makes it worth the title of being a budget king, you’ll ask. Its design, cameras, chipset (watch this space), software and storage attest to this. Without wasting much time, let’s dig in.

Nokia X5 Quick Review

The Nokia X5, also known as the Nokia 5.1 Plus appears in a premium glass body and a top notch. Oh yes, I will say that again, top notch. Very soon, one of the criteria for Android smartphone beauty will be a notch. That’s just a joke though. As expected, the notch bears the camera, a few sensors and the earpiece while the rear region sports dual cameras and fingerprint scanner. Not only touch ID technology’s on board, but Face ID tech is also supported on the smartphone. At the centre of operations, Helio P60 chipset is found. The classic MediaTek chipset is what powers the entirety of this sleek device. This chip is packed with eight cores of CPU which run at 1.8GHz. Additionally, there’s the Mali-G71 GPU to grant the required graphics outlay. If there’s anything you can quickly pick up from Nokia’s naming of smartphones, it’s the “.1” suffix. Can you recall I said Nokia X5 is also known as Nokia 5.1 Plus? Yes, the “.1” implies Android one. Being an Android one device, the Android experience on this smartphone is just seamless. Other than portraying Android One, the phone also serves its software functions with Vanilla Android 8.1 Oreo. That settled, a 3GB RAM sorts out the multitasking ease of the smartphones. A 32GB internal memory completes its memory unit. For you to increase this storage, one SIM card slot will serve as the MicroSD slot. Photos with accurate details and less noise can be taken with the 13MP + 5MP rear shooters in daylight. At night, the flash comes into play to save the day. At the front, machine learning helps the 8MP cam to capture AI-assisted images.
