Unsurprisingly, the Nokia`s 8110 (first impressions) garnered the most gasps, while the 8 Sirocco (first impressions) turned most heads with its sexy design when they were launched at the pre-MWC event.

Unsurprisingly, the Nokia`s 8110 (first impressions) garnered the most gasps, while the 8 Sirocco (first impressions) turned most heads with its sexy design when they were launched at the pre-MWC event. But personally speaking, the 7 Plus is easily the best smartphone from the brand`s new lineup. It`s a well-rounded package that doesn`t try to cut any corners, unless you`re nit-picking or looking for flagship-grade cameras.With the price tag of Rs 25,990, the Nokia 7 Plus also manages to be in a league of its own considering that the fact that the Rs 25,000 to 30,000 segment usually doesn`t see much action. Its main contenders include the notch-bearing selfie-centric OPPO F7 (review) and Vivo V9 (review), both of which are priced at the Rs 22k mark. If you`re looking for a stock Android experience, then the Moto X4 (review) is also a capable option with 6GB RAM and dual rear cameras packed in a glass-sandwich design. The 7 Plus also competes with last year`s flagships, including the Nokia 8 and Honor 8 Pro, which offer some impressive features like powerful processors and 2K displays, although they miss out on offering a bezel-less design.To sum up, if the Nokia 7 Plus had been priced a little lower, I would have recommended it wholeheartedly. As of now though, it might not be the only option to buy in this price bracket, so you need to weigh your options before swiping the plastic.
