  • So why does this mid-range phone excite me so?
    (Because it kind of does)
  • This is a really interesting phone!
  • Wish we could get Nokia to certify for US CDMA.
  • Does this have NFC? opps, just saw it. Damn, this is a killer device. screw the flagships, the mid range is where the best stuff is. 400 bucks or less, all day battery, great looks, etc.
  • Are you sure it has wireless charging? I'm reading conflicting articles on that point.
  • Same question.
  • Hey good people at AC, could you please ask Nokia/HMD to clarify what 2 years of platform updates means in this case? Will it also get Android R when it comes out August 2020, or will updates stop with Q? Just curious because the release of R would be technically within the 2 years period. If it got Pie right after release and then only Q one year later, I would honestly feel kinda swindled...
  • Michael, Even getting one update on a 349 dollar phone you are NOT getting swindled. I do believe you will indeed get R.
  • That's probably true, but getting that confirmed from Nokia would be the icing on a cake that already looks pretty good.
  • Im sure we will hear soon. I am using an iPhone 8 as my daily driver now, and really like it. I am probably going to get a new android phone soon and its going to probably be both the Q stylo + and the 7.1.
