HMD Global has been hard at work, releasing major system updates for most of the smartphones that are offered by the company. An Android Pie update for the Nokia 5 was released last month, and the company has just released another one for the popular Nokia 6.
Nokia 2.1 was released back in 2018 as a budget Nokia model. The device offers a minimalistic design paired with a generous screen. A great advantage is represented by the fact that users can easily swap the rear section of the device if they want and several aftermarket choices are available.
The device is a great choice for people that wish to enjoy a Netflix binge on the go or enjoy e-books. As expected, there is no fingerprint sensor, and a microUSB port handles charging and data transfer. The speakers of the device are quite well-done with the only perceivable flaw being a clear lack of bass.
Upon release, the device arrived with Android 8.1 Oreo Go. Android Oreo is a modified version of the core Android OS, and it aims to deliver the latest Android features on budget devices. The Go version requires a small amount of internal storage space and RAM to work, and the overall experience is satisfying.
