NokiaG50 5G | Android 11 | Unlocked Smartphone | US Version | 4/128GB | 6.82-Inch Screen | 48MP Triple Camera | Ocean Blue

Im so glad I spent the money on this phone it wurks so much better and for as much as I drop it or knock ut off the counter its not even cracked the screen. So its tabbie tough and thats says a lot about Nokia. Wosh I would have gone with Nokia un the first place and saved myself the trouble.

A lot of the phones in that $200 and lower are either crappy or are designed for bands that are not supported in the US (probably to force users to buy unnecessarily expensive phones). The G50 is actually a pretty damn good phone for the price. You'll get NFC and 5G which is not ubiquitous in this price range.It's not perfect. The fingerprint reader is a little sus. But other than that I have no complaints. The processor is snappy enough. It also has a big battery too. So you'll get easily a day or two of use before charging. If somehow it could have wireless charging it would be perfect. But even without it. It's pretty damn good. It's got a big screen. They really should have just duplicated this formula for the G60 which to my eye looks a lot cheaper.This a well made, sturdy phone. Good for the price range. Oh I'm on T-Mobile.

Fingerprint reader works but it also works no matter what finger you use in my experience I put in my thumb only and it unlocks with all my fingers. The battery life is not even close to what is advertised. The camera is terrible even compared to a Samsung or IPhone from multiple years ago my iPhone 5c I had a long time ago had better camera quality. The worst thing is my screen just decided to absolutely conk out and be unresponsive to touch and is entirely unusable like if you have a messed up video cable on an old vcr kind of look there was no accident to cause this either it was working and then just did that within a second I was using it when it happened. I tried to do a repair on it with phone repair tools as well and the outer glass they used is so thin and cheap is shattered when I was removing it to get to the actual screen I wasn't using a lot of force or an improper tool either. I've only had it for 6 months maybe too and for it to be complete destroyed when I've done nothing but take proper care of it is horrible I wish I could get a refund but I doubt I will. Also after about a month of use the OS will start to malfunction and give you error messages and massive freeze ups and loss of function without reseting the phone even then it sometimes persists. I would rather have a flip phone than this garbage I thought I'd branch out and try a different phone brand for once and this was a horrible mistake.

My wife uses android exclusively until this phone arrived. She tried to like this, wanted to love it like her Motorola died after one year. Reviews are mixed, some good and bad, phone looked nice. I used Nokia phones many years. I appreciated user interface, quality, design and functions.What she liked:1.Facial recognition is flawless, never failed to unlock her phone, good color.2. Price is reasonable.3. Large screen and color.4. Updated to Android 12 out of the box. Unfortunately some backed up items were deleted and settings changed during the backup. Three days later finally found correct settings.What she didn’t like:1. Button designs on both sides are too easy to mistakingly touch. A case reduced inadvertent button use, but they should be a few MM higher on both sides. She accidentally turned it off during a call.2. Fingerprint Sensor, I think is on the side, not bottom or face. She didn’t use it or activate that feature.3. Dropped calls. This is common issue with all cell phones. This one dropped two or three calls each day suggests hardware problem. As a side note we live in a small apartment never had this happen with my cell phone or her previous Android.Opinion: I used android many years, 2002-2012. For personal reasons I changed to Apple IPhone for better Securit.Android programs require access to private info etc. Android system is decent, interface is intuitive, my issue allowing programs access to private data. Words with friends for instance is valid reason to access contacts. A different game program needed access to contacts, phone and email or it would not work. Her last two android devices were hijacked through a coupon website. We had to factory reset and slowly delete backup data info, cookies, programs. Installing virus protection discovered five hacking cookies we could not delete. Norton isolated and deleted them in minutes.Android OS versus IOS is subjective choice/preference. I’m not slamming Android or promoting IOS, they both have issues.In summary this Nokia phone didn’t work for us.

I like the phone so far. I was careful at first about charging it. I'm disabled and have a dog so I drop by phone quite often and so far it's held up but then I also bought a case and screen protector. I highly highly recommend you buy a case and screen protector for any phone you have especially if you are a clumsy person and drop things a lot. At first I did have a bit of a hard time with figuring out everything on the phone but now it's not too bad. I like the size of the phone and the screen is quite a good size. I watch videos on my phone and those all play good. I've taken pictures, videos as well and they usually turn out great unless it's the operator lol. I'd say this is a good phone to get.

The phone works fine and the battery life is great. I's just far too big. It doesn't fit in pants pockets well, so the side buttons get pressed as you sit and stand and have to adjust the phone through the pants. Since it's the volume button that is getting pressed, sound gets turned off so you miss phone calls and texts as there's no notification. I had to shut off the function of the left side button for the same reason.Additionally, although the phone works fine on 4G LTE with AT&T, it does not have the oddball band that AT&T has for their "real" 5G, the n260 band.I have always used Nokia phones (several decades) and liked them, but this one is not a win for me.
