The sub-4-million-dong phone market will offer more choices for users, but this also presents a considerable challenge for Nokia due to the lack of standout features in the product.
1. Nokia 3.2 Officially Launches: Featuring a Large 6.26-inch Display, Physical Google Assistant Button, Two Storage Options, Starting from 2.99 Million Dong
The sub-4-million-dong phone market will offer more choices for users, but this also presents a considerable challenge for Nokia due to the lack of standout features in the product.
Introduced at the MWC 2019 event, the budget-friendly Nokia 3.2 is finally available in the Vietnamese market.
In terms of appearance, the Nokia 3.2 doesn't boast many distinctive features: it still uses plastic casing to cut costs, but the glossy plastic layer makes the product prone to fingerprint smudges, causing inconvenience for some meticulous users.
A new feature on this smartphone is the physical Google Assistant button located on the left side of the device. This move aims to make the virtual assistant more accessible to users, especially since Google has recently added Vietnamese support for this AI assistant.
On the opposite side, the power button of the Nokia 3.2 gains some attention with the integration of an LED notification light.
With a 6.26-inch HD+ display, the Nokia 3.2 is ranked among the top smartphones with the largest screens in the same price range.
The device adopts a waterdrop design, and the screen bezels are still slightly thick.
Especially, the bottom bezel is quite thick.
In terms of specifications, the Nokia 3.2 utilizes the Snapdragon 429 chipset, a 4,000 mAh battery, 13 MP/5MP cameras, and is available in two different RAM and ROM configurations: 2GB/16GB and 3GB/32GB.
Another point to note is that the 3GB RAM variant on the back has a fingerprint sensor, while the 2GB version does not. However, users can utilize facial recognition for security purposes.
Only the 3GB version comes with a fingerprint sensor on the back.
The device runs on Android One, operating on Android 9, and will receive updates earliest upon new releases.
The Nokia 3.2 with 2GB RAM is priced at 2,990,000 VND, while the 3GB variant costs 3,990,000 VND.
