Short Review
- The Nokia X71 features a sleek design with a glass front and back, complemented by an aluminum frame, measuring 157.2 x 76.5 x 8 mm and weighing 180 grams.
- Its 6.39-inch IPS LCD display offers a resolution of 1080 x 2316 pixels, providing a sharp pixel density of approximately 400 ppi, though it lacks HDR support and has a standard 60Hz refresh rate.

- Running on Android 9.0 (Pie) under the Android One program ensures a clean software experience with timely updates.
- Connectivity options include dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, and a USB Type-C port, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
