Calls are great, even though the earpiece could be a bit louder. There is a nicely performing loudspeaker that reproduces good quality sound and is also good enough for hands-free calls.

GPS is also working well, and the phone finds a position in a matter of seconds. There is also an NFC antenna that enables you the contactless payments with your Nokia 7.

This device is the first Nokia smartphone to pass the 41 MP mark that was set by the Nokia Pureview. The main idea behind the 48 MP sensor is the pixel binning technology or combination of four 0.

You can still be using all of the 48 MP independently, but the result of pixel binning technology is more eye-catching. Next to the 48 MP camera is the 13mm ultra-wide camera that has an 8MP sensor.

The biggest problem is that the transition between main and ultra-wide is noticeable since those sensors provide photos with different white balance and color. For sensing the depth, Nokia Mobile used a 5MP depth sensor which does have trouble making night shots look sharp out of the pocket.

Image 5 of 7 In most cases the Nokia 7. The Nokia 7. This is a version of Android made by Google that is meant to work well on low-end hardware and promises updates for years. It cannot be customized by the phone manufacturer and only runs on certain devices. A good way to do this would have been to allow the entire length from center to right edge to scroll through the entire back-stack of open applications so that the user could easily flip between the first and last open app with one movement, stopping anywhere in between to activate the selected app.

Likable but not lovable

That would have been a great way to do this. You swipe all the way to the right edge and then it will periodically flip to the next app. Swiping the sausage upwards just a little bit reveals a multi-tasking interface where you can much more easily swipe between open applications. But wait, if you swipe up on the little sausage a little more, then a huge grid of application icons files the screen. None of this is intuitive or discoverable, of course. The back button is no longer a left-pointing triangle like Android users are used to.

For many people, the camera is one of the most important parts of a phone, and the 48 megapixel spec listing for the Nokia 7. First of all, the camera software nicely brings back the rotational dial controls that first appeared on Nokia Lumia phones many years ago. It also nicely supports RAW output in the two rear cameras as well as the front camera, but not the time-of-flight sensor. Unfortunately, it turns out that while technically the main camera sensor does have 48 megapixels, it only actually creates 12 megapixels of image data.

There’s a lot to love in this wallet-friendly handset

It uses pixel binning where 4 pixels on the sensor are averaged into 1 pixel that gets output. Furthermore this is done within the sensor hardware so the software really only gets 12 megapixels of data. The front-facing camera is specified at 20Mp, but it does the same thing and only actually gives you 5Mp of data from the camera. The wide-angle 8Mp camera does not use pixel binning so that one does output the same 8Mp resolution image that you would expect. Its image quality is pretty terrible!
