Nokia 5.1 Plus Detailed Specifications

The Nokia 5.1 Plus sports a 5.86-inch HD+ IPS LCD panel spilling a resolution of 720 x 1520 pixels on a 19:9 aspect ratio screen. The phone does come with a notch that resembles its higher priced family member, the Nokia 6.1 Plus. The Nokia 5.1 Plus has been carved out in a high-gloss body with CNC-machined metal camera bezels, and it comes sandwiched between two glass layers of 2.5D curved glass.

At the heart of the Nokia 5.1 Plus is the octa-core 12nm MediaTek Helio P60 processor which clocks a frequency of 2.0GHz and comes accompanied by Mali-G72 MP3 GPU. Paired with this chipset is the 3GB RAM and 32GB of internal storage. The device also comes with a microSD card slot which allows for internal storage expansion up to 400GB.

The Nokia 5.1 Plus also meets expectations in the camera and imaging department as it comes with a 13MP + 5MP dual rear camera setup and an 8MP selfie snapper. The primary sensor of 13MP comes enabled with PDAF and a f/2.0 aperture, while the 8MP camera on the front comes with a f/2.2 aperture and 80.4-degree wide-angle lens. The camera app on the Nokia 5.1 Plus also offers many AI-based features like bokeh effect, haze removal, portrait lighting, and beauty mode.

The phone comes powered by a 3060mAh battery. However, fast charging support on the device is rather unlikely to be found. There’s also a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor. Connectivity options on the phone include Wi-Fi 802.11 ac, Bluetooth 4.2 Low Energy GPS with A-GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, FM radio, USB Type-C port, and Dual 4G VoLTE. The Nokia 5.1 Plus measures 149.51 x 71.98 x 8.096mm in dimensions, and it weighs 160 grams.

Being an HMD Global device the Nokia 5.1 Plus comes with pure stock Android and it also comes with Android One certification. The Android One certification on the phone means that it is going to be eligible for quick and latest Android updates and monthly security patches. The phone will also be on the front end when it comes to receiving the Android 9 Pie update.

With this offering, HMD Global can be seen going strong in the budget segment since the Nokia 5.1 Plus offers competitive design, specification and performance, and it does all of that at an attractive price point.

Nokia 5.1 Plus: Should You Buy it?

Absolutely. The Nokia 5.1 Plus is an excellent smartphone at Rs 10,999 because it offers stellar performance and also comes with timely software updates promise. We should not expect much from the cameras on the Nokia 5.1 Plus, but the compact form factor and an HD+ makes up for decent battery life on the handset.
