I tested the 13MP back camera in a different environment, some were nice while some were not too good. The 13MP back camera photos look bad at night but are amazing when there is enough light in the environment.

On the other hand, the 5MP front-facing camera is not too good especially when you are in a room, it is below average.

What I like about the Nokia 2.4 smartphone

Design: The design of the Nokia 2.4 is just amazing, the dual rear camera centralization also made the smartphone look lovely. Also, the screen-to-body ratio is okay.

The battery: Huge battery! The huge 4500MAH battery can last for (2) two days on a single charge. So I don’t get to charge every time.

Timely updates: The Nokia 2.4 comes with android one support. Timely updates are being sent out to users using the Nokia 2.4 smartphone. The smartphone runs on the Android 10 operating system, but currently, there is an update of Android 11.

Nokia 2.4 review

There’s also a rumor online that the Nokia 2.4 android 12 update is out. But I am not sure as I am yet to get the update.

What needs to be improved on the Nokia 2.4 smartphone

The RAM size: If you plan to multitask with the Nokia 2.4 32GB/2GB version, things might not work too well. The 32GB/2GB version is very slow when it comes to colossal multitasking it sometimes freezes.

While the 64GB/3GB version tends to handle the task better.
I would always advise anybody going for the 2.4 to go for the 64GB/3GB version.

No fast charge: A huge battery with no fast charge feature could be very annoying. The Nokia 2.4 doesn’t come with a fast charge feature. It might take more than (3) three hours to get it from 0 to 100%.


I run a test by using my Oraimo Pilot power bank to charge it up, it gave me an estimate of 6 hours to charge fully. I also run the same test on my Nokia 3V with a 4000MAH battery, and the estimate was three hours. This is because the Nokia 3V comes with a fast charge feature.
