Nokia is back in the smartphone market with some amazing phones. Nokia 3 is one of them. Nokia 3 is the most affordable smartphone by Nokia (Yeah, Nokia 3310 is not a smartphone). It is a beautiful looking phone at an affordable price tag. Nokia has not released a flagship device yet. It may be waiting to see how well do its phones perform in a budget range category.
Nokia has paid a lot of attention to the design of this phone. The phone looks amazingly good for a budget phone. When you hold the phone in your hand, you cannot tell that it is a cheap phone. The back cover of the phone is plastic but it still looks good. The Nokia 3 carries the legacy of its Windows Phone design and you can easily tell that by just looking at the phone. The phone has rounded sides which make it feel even thinner than it already is. However, there are some drawbacks in the design as well. The phone does not have a notification light and the capacitive touch buttons at the bottom of the screen also lack a backlight. Which makes the phone harder to use in the dark. Moreover, there is no fingerprint scanner on this device and it feels unusual to have a phone without a fingerprint scanner in 2017.
The Nokia 3 comes with an 8 MP, f/2.0 camera which is not a great camera. The phone takes good photos in the bright day light but it struggles in the low light conditions. The front camera is also 8 MP, f/2.0 and it also struggles to capture a good photo. Another major drawback is that this phone can only record and play 720p videos.
If you want a better camera phone in this price range, you can go for Infinix S2 or the Xiaomi Redmi 4X.
Honestly, the Nokia 3 sucks in the performance department as well. It comes with a MediaTek MT6737 chipset with Quad-core 1.4 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and Mali-T720MP1 GPU. It comes with just 2GB of RAM. The phone lags even on basic tasks. Like it starts to hang during the Facebook browsing. And the phone literally hangs when you open more than 4 or 5 apps at once.
Gaming performance is also miserable. It barely runs heavy games like the Mortal Kombat X and Asphalt Xtreme.

| Pixel Density Pixel Density (PPI) is refers to the concentration of pixels on a particular display, measured in pixels per inch (ppi). Pixel density is calculated by dividing the diagonal pixel resolution of a display by its diagonal size, higher pixel density better display quality. | ~294 ppi pixel density |
| Touch Screen | Yes, Multitouch |
| Display Protection Display Protection => Gorilla Glass is a special alkali-aluminosilicate glass shield with exceptional damage resistance that helps protect mobile displays from scratches, drops, and bumps of everyday use, It is always better to go for a smartphone with Gorilla Glass for that added protection and peace of mind. | Corning Gorilla Glass (unspecified version) |
| Features | Multitouch |
| Primary Camera is able to capture photographs and usually videos, The most important characteristics of a camera are the resolution (measured in megapixels), lens focus type (fixed or automatic), higher megapixel cameras are known to capture higher quality photos, but not always a good measurement of the photos quality. | 8 MP, f/2.0 |
| Video | Yes |
| Camera Features |
1.12 µm pixel size, geo-tagging, touch focus |
| Flash Flash Light => There is commonly two types of flash lights are used in camera mobile phones, LED Flash (LED flash offers lower power consumption with drive circuitry that takes up very little room, LEDs can be strobed faster than any other light source), Xenon Flash (xenon flash produces an extremely intense full-spectrum white light for a very short duration) | LED flash |
| Secondary | 8 MP, f/2.0 |
| Operating System OS => Every computer system run on a base software called Operating System (OS). Operating System controls all basic operations of the computer (such as smartphone, PDAs, tablet computers and other handheld devices).

| Chipset Chipset is a group of integrated circuits designed to perform one or a more dedicated functions, often with real time computing constraints, Popular smartphones are equipped with more advanced embedded chipsets that can do many different tasks depending on their programming. | Mediatek MT6737 |
| CPU CPU (Central Processing Unit) mostly known as processors, CPU processes instructions in order to carry out certain functions that make your device operate properly. Processors are often described as the brain of computers, smartphones and tablets, Smartphones and tablets rely on processors to carry out their every task, Processors are an incredibly important factor in selecting any type of computing device, including your smartphone. | Quad-core 1.4 GHz Cortex-A53 |
| GPU GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) is a single-chip processor designed to rapidly manipulate and alter memory to accelerate the creation of images in a frame buffer intended for output to a display, This includes things such as lighting effects, object transformations, and 3D motion. | Mali-T720MP2 |
| RAM (Memory) RAM (Random Access Memory) is a type of computer memory that can be accessed randomly, any byte of memory can be accessed without touching the preceding bytes that allows information to be stored and accessed quickly from random locations. RAM is the most common type of memory found in computer systems, smartphones, tablets and other electronic devices. | 2 GB |
