It has a pre-installed screen protector, a clear phone case, a USB-C charger and an earphone. I hope Nokia can keep its word "2 years Android upgrades".

The Nokia 5.4 is as Nokia a phone as it could have been. The strong points are stronger than ever. Consistent performance, clean Android with no preloaded apps or bloatware, strong battery life and well, it is Made in India as well.

Looking over my list of pros and cons, I'm a little annoyed. Not only does this Nokia carry so much potential in the 5.4 compared to its predecessor, it fails to live up to the opportunity given to drive a message to its competitors.

Carries a modern look; Android One; 4,000 mAh battery; Main camera significantly better than the one on the Nokia 5.3

Too few features for €200

I'm an undemanding middle-aged phone user. I wanted a phone with enough space for apps, enough speed and memory to cope with everyday tasks, a large clear screen, a decent camera, a headphone socket and a memory card slot.

Nokia 5.4 no doubt stands tall on what Nokia brand is known for. It has got solid build quality, good battery life and a clutter-free user experience. However, at the starting price of Rs 13,999, the smartphone lacks that something extra.

Nokia 5.4 is the successor to the Nokia 5.3 announced in the early days of March, 2020. The major upgrade in the new comer includes a larger 48-megapixel main camera, better selfie snapper and of course, a more compact overall bodily profile.

The Nokia 5.4 is currently available on bhphotovideo.com for $249.99, but it is temporarily out of stock on bestbuy.com and amazon.com .

Puristic. With Android One and a dedicated Google Assistant button, the Nokia 5.4 tries to separate itself from the rest of the competition in the mid-range space. However, users, who were hoping to see a significant improvement over the Nokia 5.3, will be left bitterly disappointed…

Great day-to-day performance and battery life that any mobile user would love to pieces

24+ hours of on-time; 7+ hours of screen-on time; Sleek modern design language; 3.5mm audio jack; 48MP quad camera; 16MP front camera are greatly improved; Dedicated Google Assistant key; 4GB RAM/128GB storage; Near-stock Android 10

HD+ screen (720 x 1560 pixels); Bluetooth 4.2; rather than 5.0 or 5.1; LTE category 4 only; no 5G; Performance from the Snapdragon 662 gets a bit laggy in even moderate games; Speaker audio is better this time around; but still not great

The Nokia 5.4 is the brand’s latest budget contender. Though it has a sturdy, attractive design, its poor cameras, inconsistent performance, underwhelming screen, and lack of personality mean it is poor value compared to its closest rivals at the price point.
