Re: ITS GOOBYE FROM ME
Hi Lior, thanks mate for your kind words. I will definitely keep in touch with you guys cause I still use my old 7.1 occasionally.
After a lot of research, I've pulled the trigger on the Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Plus, even though I always said I would never buy Chinese. Lol
I couldn't pass it up. Check out the specs and reviews, it knocks the X20 for six and is a lot cheaper. I know that I won't get many updates but I guess that we're all used to that now. Haha.
I'll let you know how it goes when I received it next week
I sincerely hope you can get some redress concerning the problems you've had with your 7.2
Good luck, Alan.
Re: [Feedback Friday] Teaser #1 - Why do you use a case?
I always use back cover for to protect from accidental fall, and to protect camera bump from scratch or and to protect camera lens glass damages, and also keep my phone looks beautiful without any wear and tear or scratches. I use Transparent back cover so phones actual design, colors is visible 😍
Re: Android 12 Developer Preview
As a consumer all I can see is Nokia is lost in its marketing day dream and doesn't see the current reality. All roadmaps mean nothing and only a handful of devices are updated to A11.
Sensible
Re: Calling for a global money refund for customers that purchased Nokia 7.2
I don't care. In Germany, there is a slogan: "If you lie once, you won't be believed," and that is exactly what HMD/Nokia has done too often. Wherever I can, I prevent a purchase of devices from HMD/Nokia. Even if I don't have that much work to do, because who buys devices from Nokia anymore. 😎 I think that they (HMD) will simply continue to not deliver (software).
Idealists or Windows Mobile switchers bought devices from HMD/Nokia in the past. That is over. You can see that everywhere. My Pixel 5 gets updates or even new features (e.g. "Astromode" for photos) as promptly as my previous Lumias (930 & 950). And I don't want to miss that anymore.
Re: [#Campfire] Feedback Friday #6: Nokia XR20 - How did we do?
Hi @dipankar paul, from the details available on the website and the few videos I have watched, I feel that the Nokia XR20 has nailed it. It is not perfect (tbh, nothing is), but it is a great product that is well designed and developed keeping in mind the expectations of a target user group. All in all, even though the Nokia XR20 is not a device for everyone, it appears to be a decent buy for those who are looking for a device that:
- Is good looking
- Is sturdy and classy to hold
- Is warrantied against manufacturing defects for long
- Is supported for long
- Is tested and certified to survive the daily abuse
- Can do almost everything that a casual user expects to do on his phone - from photos to social media to casual gaming
- Has all the essentials from the headphone jack to wireless charging to stereo speakers, NFC, and more
That's for the phone. But more importantly, I think the Nokia XR20 does a lot more than just being a great device in itself.
Nokia: Gaining back the lost attention
For one, it brings the attention back to Nokia. Depending on how well the device is marketed, I am of the opinion that the Nokia XR20 can give Nokia the attention that it deserves. The XR20 is a product that can showcase the signature qualities of a Nokia smartphone to the masses. It is a product that will make people get excited, talk, gossip, buy, flaunt, enjoy and recommend. Basically, the Love; Trust; Keep in a loop. It kinda rings me some bells as if the tagline best suits the Nokia XR20. It is a device that can stand out among all the devices in a retail shop. It can be a great word of mouth marketeer for Nokia Mobile. Even without being a flagship by specs, it can be a flag bearer for Nokia's family of products by communicating the values of the Nokia brand.
A possible industry trend-setter
Another aspect is that the XR20 (if successful) can pave the way for a trend. A trend where phones will be less delicate and more durable - phones that will last long, will be supported for longer, will not have to be thrown away due to unavailability of spare parts. If industry gets into that switch, we will be putting lesser strain on our natural resources, the environment, and also on our pockets. I am sure consumers want that, it is just that they are helpless and are being misguided by the corporations that want the consumers to buy more.
As a player, I believe hmd has done its part i.e. launched a product that can really help reduce the electronic junk that is generated by the frequent buying and rebuying of mobile phones.
A single device doesn't change everything, but the XR20 is a step in the right direction. I do not want to find flaws here and there only to devalue the effort that would have gone behind it. A real Nokia has appeared in the game after such a long time and it will define its own market.
Assumptions (of course):
- HMD has thoroughly tested the product against all the various kinds of stress tests and is confident that the product will satisfy its buyers.
- The manufacturing partner is an experienced one that can assure a reliable manufacturing process and uses materials and parts per the specifics provided by HMD with the least ratio of defects.
- HMD has chosen high-quality components from reliable suppliers
- The sales team works hard to pitch the device to the right people - because launching is one thing, but bringing it to the attention of its target user group is another.
- The software team delivers great software over and over again - we are talking 4 years here! If SF goes bad, riddled with bugs, broken features, etc then the long life of the product can become a curse instead. I hope the new devices finally start getting better with their updates and there will be lesser users who start looking for ways to downgrade.
- The care team is ready to handle warranty claims, has the parts for quick repairs, and will not be on the lookout to find flaws to decline the warranty coverage.
Best of luck (🍀🤞) to all the people who will be working through the Nokia XR20's life cycle. Looking forward to more tech that I can like and be proud of! 🤗
Android 11 for Nokia 5.4
I am sorry to remember here, about HMD' s promise about android 11 upgrade to Nokia 5.4.... it is 26 th of June.... Still Nokia in android 10... It is ok... Please even provide us monthly security patch properly (most of variant in March security update)
Re: Android 11 on Nokia 8.1
Are you gays having a problem while charging. After getting android 11 update my phone doesn't charge rapidly. It's just charging normally. Before the update it was charging fast.
Re: ITS GOOBYE FROM ME
Good for you alan, congrats on quitting nokia, especially for getting a full refund, which Lior has been crying for months. It's a pleasure to see you guys' funny conversations. It's been the best part for owning a Nokia. Good bye, and good luck to your next phone.

Re: First #Campfire participants announced!
Hello @dipankar paul @Nikhil.V @rt social marketing I got my earbuds today , thank you so much 🙂🙏❤️

Re: Android 12 is now on testing
I think Nokia is going to die very soon. Because these are the signs of a company which is wanted to stay in the market for a long run. Nokia 5.3 is still runs on Feb security patch and we are waiting for android 11.
