Is the Nokia 5.1plus a good alternative?
The budget nokia phones were good, not the best. The Flagships were also the same, but for price, Nokia 8 was incredible. The new 2018 smartphones from the Finnish company are just incredible both in features and looks, just like the old lumias. Well, not just new phones for the flagship grade, but also for the budget segment. The Nokia 5.1 is one of the new budget smartphones which is a big upgrade from the nokia 5 (that was good though). It comes with upgraded hardware and a small decrease in price which might seem to impress the new buyers.
The Nokia 5.1 comes with the new Helio P18 chipset along with a 3GB RAM variant and with a bigger camera. But does it have better specs than the other budget phones in the same category? Is the Nokia 5.1 a good alternative? Lets check out.
Nokia androids had one thing extraordinary in them, an incredible body design which added premium to the body. The Nokia 5 had a aluminium frame with comfortable side edges that felt good. The new nokia 5.1 has a better Aluminium body frame with the same comfortable edges but beneath a glass layer. That does add a flagship feel to the phone since most phones just have a metal body.
The 5.1 blends metal with front glass
Regarding display, the nokia 5.1 gets a normal 5.5 inch 1080p panel but in a 18:9 ratio. More of the Nokia 7 plus looks on it, which is amazing. The screen is guarded by a Gorilla Glass that keeps it protected from scratches. Well, a 1080p resolution screen on 5.5inch size provides a better display quality and depth around 439 pixels per inch. Its hard to find such high quality screens in the budget segment since most come with 720p, but the 5.1 has it. The Helio P18 comes with the MiraVision engine that provides better Colour saturation, brightness, resolution altering features. Thus, it would be an immense experience for you to watch high quality videos, movies, play games and when using the camera.
The MiraVision enhances imaging more for the 1080p display
he Nokia 5.1 gets a big upgrade onto the chipset and its a performance beast. Its a Mediatek Helio P18 octacore chipset along with a good 1080p capable GPU. The core arrangement show a higher clocked four 2.0Ghz Cortex-A53 cores and four lower clocked 1.2Ghz Cortex-A53 cores. Yes, all power efficient A53 cores which is good for battery life. As usual the lower clocked cores will aid in the simple tasks, whereas the higher clocked ones will get active when something heavy is to be done. The GPU is a Mali-T860MP2 dualcore running at 800Mhz and can provide fluent gameplays along with a lagless smooth UI experience along with stock Android OS(Oreo). RAM includes a sufficient 3GB The P18 can provide high speed cat6 LTE speeds and consists of a new CorePilot engine that manages power optimizations for the chipset to run efficiently, monitoring all of these tasks and lot.
The Helio P18 is powerful enough for a budget smartphone
On the camera side, the 5.1 comes with a single, big 16MP camera on a f/2.0 lens with a 1/3" sensor along with fast Phase Detection AutoFocus system. Its the same as in the Nokia 6 and also performs similarly amazing, as the hardware says. The 16MP unit can capture good shots (a 1/3" sensors are good) under good lightings. Other features include usual HDR (for lighting up the shadows a bit), Panoroma, along with a Dual TONE LED flash for aiding the camera in less lights. The Front unit consists of a 8MP with f/2.0 lens. Video recording includes FULL HD 1080p at 30fps.
The Nokia 5.1 ships with a bit small 2970mAh battery that might be unfit for users. Most smartphones do come with bigger batteries, as small ones don't provide enough power to run the phone all day. The P18 is not that efficient in fabrication since, its made on a 28nm process. But that wont be a problem much either since the P18 has individual core clocking technique. Also the CorePilot engine helps in managing tasks along with optimizing CPU performances to lower battery consumption, the MiraVision also provides altering features on imaging, that also can reduce battery usage. Android Oreo also boards some nice battery optimization techniques for efficient battery usage and with that all along, the Nokia 5.1 can run throughout a day with normal usage.
The Nokia 5.1 seems like a intelligent alternative rather than being good. The goods come in hot like ;
1. Very good Metallic design with front glass
2. 1080p display
3. Intelligent Helio P18 chipset
4. Powerful processors
5. Dedicated SD card slot
6. 16MP camera
7. Fingerprint sensor
8. Can provide good battery backup via intelligent tasking.
And the 5.1 seems a good alternative for other phones, if you want a powerful phone along with a well made Metal body.
