Nokia 5.1 Plus (Nokia 5X) Smartphone Review

 

Fratricide? The Nokia 5.1 Plus not only performs better than the Nokia 5.1 but also better than the Nokia 6.1, despite what Nokia's number system may have led you to believe. In-house competition or just confusing numbers?

HMD introduces Nokia 5.1 Plus and Nokia 6.1 Plus phones for the international market

 

After launching the Nokia X5 and X6 in China earlier this year, HMD Global has revealed that they'll be available in the rest of the world under different names.

Both phones are Android One devices, which means they’ll run near-stock Android software. They’re both expected to ship with Android 8 Oreo, but an Android 9 Pie update is expected in the coming months.
