2. Quality Review of Nokia G11 Plus
2.1 Screen Quality Review
The Nokia G11 Plus features a 6.517-inch display with a resolution of 720 x 1600 pixels, a 20:9 aspect ratio, and a refresh rate of 90Hz, with a sampling rate of up to 180Hz - impressive figures in the budget smartphone segment.
With this type of screen, the G11 Plus delivers extremely smooth user interactions, especially when watching videos or browsing photo albums. Particularly, with its borderless design and stylish waterdrop notch for the front camera, all image and video content is displayed clearly without obstruction on this budget-friendly smartphone.
2.2 Evaluating the Design of Nokia G11 Plus
The Nokia 11 Plus is a replica of the Nokia G11, featuring a display with a waterdrop notch front camera, and maintaining a certain thickness for the bottom edge to place the Nokia logo. The sides of the device are flat, following the trend seen in many phones on the current market.
On the back, the device is finished with a surface featuring wave-like lines, providing good grip while being less prone to fingerprint smudges. The main camera module is placed within a rectangular module, while the fingerprint sensor is centrally located on the back instead of being integrated into the power button like the Nokia G11.
Overall, with this design, the G11 Plus is quite practical, combining durability with versatility to meet the needs of various users.
2.3 Performance Configuration Review of Nokia G11 Plus
The Nokia 11 Plus is equipped with the Unisoc T606 processor - a common chipset in the budget phone segment, previously featured in the Nokia G11. It comes with either 4GB or 3GB of RAM and 32GB or 64GB of internal storage, providing users with a sufficient configuration for everyday tasks and applications such as Facebook, Zalo, Messenger, and more.
However, the Nokia 11 Plus comes pre-installed with Android 12 instead of Android 11 like the Nokia G11. Additionally, Nokia commits to regular monthly security updates and users can expect two operating system updates within the next three years.
2.4 Evaluating Nokia G11 Plus Camera
Instead of the triple-camera setup like the Nokia G11, the Nokia 11 Plus features a dual main camera setup consisting of a 50MP wide-angle primary camera with an aperture of f/1.8 and a 2MP depth sensor. The device also comes with dual flash to aid in low-light photography.
So, despite having fewer cameras, the primary sensor of the Nokia 11 Plus is of higher quality than the Nokia G11, resulting in photos with better detail and color reproduction.
The front-facing camera of the device is an 8MP sensor with an aperture of f/2.2. With this front camera, the Nokia G11 Plus provides acceptable image quality while serving as an effective tool for video calls with family and friends.
2.5 Regarding Battery Capacity
Nokia states that the Nokia G11 Plus offers up to 3 days of usage with its 5000mAh battery capacity. With this battery life, users can comfortably use the device throughout the day without worrying about running out of power.
Unfortunately, the Nokia G11 Plus only integrates 10W charging technology instead of 18W like the Nokia G11. This makes the device's charging speed quite slow, as users may utilize the midday or evening breaks to charge the phone.
3. Should you buy the Nokia G11 Plus?
It can be seen that, with an incredibly low price while offering a large, high-quality screen, smooth performance, and good camera, users may find it difficult to make a better choice in the under 3 million VND segment.
However, due to its low price, the device may not be suitable for gaming or professional photography. The Nokia G11 Plus is only suitable for users new to smartphones (such as the elderly) or for use as a basic phone thanks to the device's excellent battery life.
