The nokia is a great budget phone thanks to its large display and stock Android experience. It has a huge battery, and many features that aren't available on lower-end smartphones.
Quality of the smartphone
The build of a device is one of its most important characteristics. The Nokia 3.2 is a sturdy and well-made phone with a polycarbonate unibody that looks sturdy enough to take a few knocks. We did notice that the rear surface is very glossy and prone to scratches. A case would be a good idea to protect this.
Software and software updates
Nokia 3.2 has Android 9 Pie installed out of the box. Regular updates will be made available as part the Android One Programme. This is a welcome feature as not many devices in this price range offer assured OS updates for two years or more, let alone three-year security patches.
Digital Wellbeing is also included, and this is an important feature on a budget handset. The phone has both an on-screen and physical shortcut to Google Assistant.
Camera reviews and tests
The Nokia 3.2's front camera is a 5-megapixel unit with a fixed focal point and an aperture f/2.4. It is pretty standard for a smartphone in this price range. It takes decent selfies with minimal distortion and good skin smoothening.
In our low-light tests, we saw a bit of noise in the image and a lot of grainy texture. We were disappointed because we expected better results for a camera of this price.
Audio tests and reviews
The 3.2 comes with a single side-firing speakers that sounds good, although it lacks bass. The sound quality is very similar to what we've seen from other budget smartphones in this price bracket, so if you're an audiophile, you might want to invest in a good pair of earphones.
screen and display
The 6.26-inch HD+ Display on the Nokia 3.2 has a 80% screen-tobody ratio with a waterdrop notch at the upper edge. The resolution of 1520x720 is the same as that on other smartphones.
Battery and battery life
The nokia 3 3.2 runs on a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor 429 with Adreno504 GPU. There are two versions: 2GB ram + 16GB storage space and 3GB ram + 32GB. MicroSD cards can be used to expand internal and external memory by up 400GB.
Performance and Speed
Performance of the Nokia 3.2 is disappointing, especially in terms of multitasking and games. It has difficulty loading apps and is stuttering in animation. It is slow, even though the device was designed to provide a stock Android interface.
Comparisons of design and screens
The waterdrop-shaped notch on the front gives it an extremely attractive look. Comparing it to the nokia 3, this notch feels less obvious and more natural.
