Nokia 6.1 Plus (Nokia X6) Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
3.5/5
Verdict
The Nokia 6.1 Plus certainly has a lot going for it. For its asking price of Rs 16,999, the handset features a beautiful design, is a decent performer, comes with expandable storage and features a capable selfie-camera. However, in the cut-throat smartphone industry, there are a plethora of other options which could give you more bang for your buck. The Xiaomi Mi A2 comes instantly to mind, which offers better performance and superior cameras as compared to Nokia`s offering.Moreover, you could even opt for the Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro or the ASUS Zenfone Max Pro M1, both of which offer the same...

However, in the cut-throat smartphone industry, there are a plethora of other options which could give you more bang for your buck. The Xiaomi Mi A2 comes instantly to mind, which offers better performance and superior cameras as compared to Nokia`s offering.Moreover, you could even opt for the Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro or the ASUS Zenfone Max Pro M1, both of which offer the same core specs as the Nokia 6.1 Plus, albeit are priced slightly lower. Lastly, if you can stretch your budget a bit, then you could get your hands on the much more powerful POCO F1 (review) or the Honor Play (review) too. Consequently, while the Nokia 6.1 Plus is a good smartphone, it`s overshadowed by better offerings from the competition. And round and round we go.
Pros
- Stunning design
- No frills Android experience
- Capable selfie camera
Cons
- Rear cameras aren`t as good
- Battery life could`ve been better

Design and Display
+
They say looks are subjective, but you'll be hard-pressed to find someone who doesn't fancy the design of the Nokia 6.1 Plus. Unlike its predecessors which employed metal in their construction, the Nokia 6.1 Plus ships with glass on both the front as well as the back, held together by a metal trim. Although it's not uncommon to find glass-back designs in the affordable segment anymore, the build quality on the Nokia 6.1 Plus is impeccable and it blows the competition out of the water. The 2.5D curved glass merges seamlessly into the smartphone's frame, the chamfered metal trim feels exquisite to the touch and despite the glass surface encompassing almost 93 percent of the handset's entire body, the Nokia 6.1 Plus doesn't come across as delicate. This kind of confidence can only be instilled in the buyers by Nokia.

Can then, the Nokia 6.1 Plus join the ranks of the elites I mentioned previously? Well, before I answer that, let's talk about the smartphone's camera specs.

For its asking price, the Nokia 6.1 Plus will go head-to-head with Xiaomi's recently launched Mi A2 (review). Now, from a performance standpoint, the Mi A2 packs in more powerful hardware but, having used both the smartphones intensively, I can confidently say that the Nokia 6.1 Plus is no slouch when it comes to tackling everyday tasks.
