Nokia users have been waiting for a long time from HDM Global to release a new product of the middle class. In 2019, the Nokia X71 smartphone appeared with its own advantages and disadvantages. The phones of this manufacturer have always been distinguished by product quality and good antenna modules that provide decent signal reception even in places where cell towers are at a distance, and other devices lose signal and are out of network coverage. On this, the company made a name for itself and earned a reputation as a developer of good devices. The company has released a number of gadgets that have become a legend among electronic devices.

Description Nokia X71

The phone measures 157.2×76.5×8 mm and weighs 180 grams and has a 6.39-inch LCD screen with a resolution of 1080×2316 pixels. According to the manufacturer, it occupies 83.9% of the total frontal area. The Adreno-512 processor is responsible for accelerating graphics processing.

The heart of the device is the Snapdragon-660 chipset, it is made using 14 nanometer technology. The filling has eight cores with overclocking up to 2.2 GHz. The configuration is complemented by 6 GB of RAM and 128 gigs of working space on the hard drive. The phone supports removable cards up to 256 gigabytes.

On the left side of the screen is a small cutout for the selfie camera. The rear part consists of three modules with LED flash. Below them is a sensor for scanning the pattern of the finger. Its main purpose is to protect the data stored on the phone. The functionality of the phone allows you to assign it a call to individual applications. However, its main task is to unlock the screen.

The housing has double glazing and an aluminum frame. The design is made in the strict style of Nokia developers. But its appearance is pleasant. Control keys with small bulges are on the side. The ergonomics of the device has been preserved, it sits pleasantly in the hand and it is very convenient to operate it. There is a microphone to suppress noise during a call and sound recording.

Technical table

Screen

The diagonal size of the display is 6.39 inches, which accounts for 83.9% of the total front area of ​​the phone. Capacitive liquid crystal matrix with touch control capable of displaying 16 million colors.

The screen resolution is 1080x2316 pixels with an image density of 400 dpi. This quality corresponds to the FHD + standard. The Adreno-512 graphics accelerator processes photos and videos without delay. The textures of heavy online games are drawn with the necessary detail. There are no "dead" areas with squares and freezing of active objects.

Since the phone has no frames, you will have to watch movies across the entire width of the smartphone.For some, this quality is a big plus, but some get lost out of habit. In order to add realism to the visualization and save battery, the developers have added several brightness modes.

The screen does not fade in the sun, all contours are clearly visible. Pleased with the color scheme, which makes the images more saturated. The transitions between shades are clearly visible. Such realism fully complies with the standards of high-definition resolutions. The hardware capabilities of the smartphone allow you to watch videos in high quality without losing special details of characters or objects.

cameras

The selfie camera is located in the upper left corner of the screen in the form of a small cutout. It has an f/2.0 aperture and a resolution of 16 megapixels. Unfortunately, the module is not equipped with a flash, so it is not designed for night shooting. In daylight, the pictures are clear and saturated. The video is in FHD size, which will especially appeal to travel lovers, social media users, and other people who lead an active lifestyle.

The rear camera has three sensors that each perform their own task. The first module has a resolution of 48 megapixels and is the main one. It is equipped with a stabilization function and automatic focus capture. At f/1.8 aperture, the sensor creates a background image, which is then overlaid with the results of shooting by the auxiliary cameras.

The second sensor is ultra-wide with a 120-degree field of view at 8 megapixels. It is designed to create a panorama. Thanks to him, the picture is more voluminous and large-scale. The camera covers enough distance that a group of more than ten people can easily fit in a row. To do this, you do not need to go far so that all participants get into the lens.

The third module with a resolution of 5 megapixels has f / 2.4 aperture. The sensor adds sharpness and clarity to the image. With his participation, the sensitivity of the camera increases at night. Silhouettes and contours of objects are drawn on the pictures. When the flash is turned on automatically, the colors are vivid.

The cameras have Zeiss optics, which has a positive effect on the quality. There is a digital zoom. The electronics are very sensitive to light, but there is self-shading when photographing against the sun. The equipment itself is equipped with many options aimed at obtaining high-quality images. Next to the camera group is a dual LED flash that turns on automatically or can be switched to manual mode.

Battery

The battery has a capacity of 3500 mAh. Its charge is enough for a day of active conversations. If you correctly adjust the brightness of the display, since it is the main consumer of energy, then the viability of the power source can be extended to several days.

No one uses the phone twenty-four hours a day, but in case of a sudden discharge, there is a quick battery recovery function. Divisions on the screen are filled in an hour with a little. Such options are convenient for people who are used to doing their business by phone. Active users of social networks, the Internet, business people or just movie lovers often find themselves in a situation where the charge drops to zero and there is no way to quickly restore it.

Performance

The Kryo-260 processor with eight cores based on the Qualcomm-SDM660 Snapdragon-660 chipset is made using 14 nanometer technology. The equipment of this brand is always distinguished by the speed of data processing.They are able to process large amounts of information.

Four layers operate at a frequency of 2.2 GHz, the rest - at 1.8 GHz. Their acceleration and synchronization in operation depends on the load. With its increase, the processor speeds up. The developers themselves are also trying to reduce the heating of the microcircuit by increasing the frequency characteristics. According to their logic, the faster the exchange of information, the less heat will be released. But everyone understands that without improving technology, it will not be possible to constantly increase the parameters. For this purpose, pipes and an evaporation chamber serve as additional cooling.

The phone handles time-consuming tasks well in a few seconds. Large and voluminous programs and Internet pages open quickly. During operation, they do not freeze, they function without falling. You can turn on several windows, this does not greatly affect the performance. It has proven itself well in active games that require an instant user reaction to ongoing events.

Memory

The phone has 6GB RAM and 128GB hard drive space. Disk space is complemented by the ability to install a flash drive up to 256 GB. This memory is enough to install a large number of applications, save images in high quality. The operating system has paging buffers, which, with high processor performance, allow you to quickly load temporary files and process a large amount of information.

This symbiosis contributes to the speed of the hardware stuffing. The functionality of the smartphone makes it possible to transfer the cache to removable media in order to save space on the hard drive.The option to transfer all "junk" files, which are subsequently deleted using a special utility or manually.
