Features, Performance, and Reviews for the HMD Global Nokia 6

HMD Global Nokia 6 's size

The "HMD Global Nokia 6" is 75.8mm wide, 154.0mm tall, and 7.9mm thick. I can just barely use it with one hand, so it may feel big to some people. In the case of the "HMD Global Nokia 6", it weighs about 169.0g. It feels a little heavy when held with one hand. It may tire your hand out if you operate it for too long a time.

In giving an overall rating to the "HMD Global Nokia 6", while it may be slightly difficult to hold, it shouldn't be much of a problem when considering its general strengths and weaknesses.

HMD Global Nokia 6 's screen

The "HMD Global Nokia 6" has a 5.5inch screen. The smartphone has a large, impressive screen, which allows you to enjoy photos and videos to the fullest. It is also very good for writing business documents and doing other work.

The screen of the "HMD Global Nokia 6" is extremely clear, and it's able to display everything from images to videos and even video game graphics in perfect clarity.

The CPU performance of HMD Global Nokia 6

The processing power of the "HMD Global Nokia 6" is, at 1.4GHz+1.1GHz×8(8.0-cores), relatively high. Its features would position it somewhere between high and mid-level among currently available smartphones, but it will be rather stress-free in terms of using most apps. Most 3D games that don't burn up too much memory should be playable to a satisfying degree for the most part. 2D games should be no problem at all.

The "HMD Global Nokia 6" has 3.0GB of RAM, so it has plenty of space. In rare cases this amount of RAM might not be sufficient, but there shouldn't be too much stress on the machine with this amount.

The "HMD Global Nokia 6" has the overall operating speed of a high-end smartphone, so it will hardly ever cause you trouble. But you might need to be careful when using heavy apps like 3D games a lot.

HMD Global Nokia 6 's storage capacity

The "HMD Global Nokia 6" has 32.0GB of data storage, which is plenty for taking photos, but for people who frequently shoot videos or have lots of games installed, this may not feel like enough space.

Since the "HMD Global Nokia 6" is compatible with SD cards, you'll be able to easily expand your storage capacity; you won't need to worry about how much internal space it has.

The camera function of HMD Global Nokia 6

The "HMD Global Nokia 6" has a 16.0MP main camera that lets you take photos and videos in a quite high resolution. You may be a little dissatisfied with it in some situations, for example when you want to capture scenery in very high resolution or print out beautiful photos, but this should not be an issue you run into very often.

The "HMD Global Nokia 6" comes with a 8.0MP pixel camera, which is a standard level. It's perfectly fine for selfies, but may be not as satisfying if you wish to take photos of large numbers of people, or make printouts.

The battery performance of HMD Global Nokia 6

The "HMD Global Nokia 6" has a relatively large battery with 3000.0mAh. The "HMD Global Nokia 6" has a good battery life compared to other smartphones. You won't feel stressed even if you spend all day surfing the web or on Twitter and you can also watch videos or play games on the go without having to worry too much about the battery. If you watch videos or play games for too long, however, you might want to watch your battery a bit.

Overall assessment of HMD Global Nokia 6

The "HMD Global Nokia 6" is a relatively high-performance smartphone. If you plan to use it as your main smartphone, you may find it slightly inconvenient, but within tolerable limits.
