Are you sharing a personal experience or the general 6.1 plus? 6.1 plus is better than 4.2 in every specification if you ask me. I have read reviews and seen videos about it too. The disadvantage it has when compared to 5.1plus is battery consumption and delay in launching apps. The 6.1 plus has better screen, better gpu for gaming and better camera.

You are right man. That's why I went for the 5.1 plus then. I only gave him my own opinion, based on my own findings and experiences.

That depends on what you want.
For better screen, gpu for gaming and camera, x6
For faster operation, quality battery life, x5

Have been using 6.1plus for more than a year now. The phone has never hanged or restart on its own. Fast and efficient in task operations. Battery is solid as a rock.

The drawback however is the charging port. It becomes shaky after a while. You either replace it when it becomes shaky or u pad it with paper tape like I did to mine.

By the way, has anyone been able to root any of these NOKIA android devices? I know rooting those on Android version 8 is slightly possible, but rooting those on Android 10 with all the bootloader lock is nearly impossible.

Had and patched my Nokia 6.1 plus shaky port for a while till I decided I have had enough.

I opened up the device and critically examined the charging port. Heated up my soldering iron and applied some soldering to the port pins.

Now my device is good as new. The issue is the positioning of the charging port inside the devices. Nokia goofed on that...
