Nokia has been a stalwart in the mobile phone industry, offering high quality gadgets within reasonable prices. Listed below are 5 of the newest and best phones from Nokia, complete with pros and cons.
Rank 5 - Nokia 7020
Pros:
- Included accessories are quite handy. The WH-101 Nokia Stereo Headset is a very sweet giveaway.
- The phone actually has very low SAR rating. A SAR or Specific Absorption Rate is a means to measure the amount of RF or radio frequency exposure characteristics of a specific cell phone. The acceptable rating is at 1.6 w/kg. The Nokia 7020 has a SAR rating of 0.51 w/kg.
Cons:
- Very low recording rate of 15 fps.
- The 7020 only has a 2 megapixel camera
- Batterylife is slightly lower than its counterparts. With just 276 minutes worth of talk time, it entails less usage time for some people who rely heavily on their phones.
Rank 4 - Nokia X1-00
Pros:
- Very long battery life. If the claim that it has 786 minutes worth of talk time in it, then it's practically a life saver for a lot of people.
- Included accessories are a charm. The WH-102 Nokia Stereo Headset that is included in the package is a very useful add-on.
Cons:
- For a bar phone, the X1 is extremely bulky. The phone is around 16mm thick which makes it rather impractical to some.
- The X1 has a SAR rating of 1.01 w/kg. Not that high but there are better phones out there with lesser SAR ratings.
