What started out as an ambitious idea ended up in a disappointment. The Nokia 9 PureView's quintuple camera is certainly not anything special or even particularly good. Its camera app is slow and unresponsive, which further belittles the overall impression of this smartphone camera.

dust and waterproof to IP67; Android 9 & Android One; good GPS; NFC; Bluetooth 5.0; LTE Cat.16; very bright OLED display; fast SoC

slow USB-C port; disappointing camera; fingerprint sensor with moderate detection rate; PWM flicker; throttling under load; weak speaker; short battery life

Decent handset, good quality build. Screen is excellent, sound is better than most. Awesome camera but not really for the casual everyday snapper! Very good selfie camera. Runs very well, speedy. Lenty of storage onboard. Only let down is the fingerprint scanner. Temperamental best describes it.

Able to capture considerably more detail in photos than my Sony Xperia XZ Premium which I purchased in 2017. Slight downside is there's no expendable memory slot for Micro SD cards, fingerprint sensor isn't sensitive so if you've got naturally moist / sweaty hands then you better of just typing in...

Will return it after 1 day of use. Is not acceptable with how the built-in fingerprint sensor works. It works 2/10 times. With Nokia support made a soft reset and also put the same finger 5 times just to secure up. Still the same problem.

The HMD-backed resurgence of Nokia in the smartphone market has been a real treat to watch. After years of watching Microsoft bungle its Nokia acquisition, the Nokia name is again emblazoned on excellent smartphone products. However, most Nokia phones have been toward the budget end of the spectrum.

Design The Nokia 9 looks and feels high-end; and the weird camera module is kind of fun; Display The 6-inch OLED is solid; and thankfully it does not have an unnecessary notch; Haptics The Nokia 9 vibration motor is strong and tight.
