Most days I ended with ~20-30% of the battery’s charge remaining.
Obviously using the camera for longer periods, or making lengthy phone calls, will reduce this estimate.
The results from my usual video playback battery life test are quite interesting.
Still, the above test is a good depiction of how long the X lasts while decoding HD content.
Below I’ve also included charge times for the gear from a flat battery.
Final Thoughts
The Nokia X is, quite frankly, the worst smartphone I’ve ever reviewed.
The performance of the Nokia X is horrendous.
Almost every photo I took with the Nokia X was bad, price point notwithstanding.
Arguably the worst aspect of the Nokia X is the price.
For around $130 there are many better options.
This would be a direct successor to the Nokia X reviewed here a mere 4 months after launch.
Needless to be said, proceed with caution.
Pros:Fastlane is interesting.
Cons:Outdated hardware leads to atrocious performance.
Fixed-focus camera is terrible.
Forking Android was a huge mistake.
No reason to buy over competing products.
