The Nokia 7 Plus, a new upper-midrange device from Nokia and HMD Global, has finally reached the Philippine shores.
And yes, the term “upper-midrange” is actually a term. It encompasses the smartphone that is priced from Php17k up to Php20k. Look at it as an expensive midrange device, but also a cheap high-end smartphone.
Moving on, the Nokia 7 Plus is exactly just like that. This device has some high-end look and feel, but a spec sheet that’s meant not to be over the top.
With that said, this is built in a 6000-series aluminum body. The screen is set at 6-inches but only with a Full HD+ resolution. The launch of this device also marks Nokia’s entrance in the 18:9 aspect ratio trend.
The Nokia 7 Plus is powered by a Snapdragon 660 processor with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of eMMC memory. Nokia is also proud of its 16-megapixel front camera and 12-megapixel + 13-megapixel dual rear cameras — all of which are treated with ZEISS optics.
