We weren't that enamoured with the Nokia 3 when we reviewed it last summer, and suffice it to say that time is even more unkind to budget phones than it is to flagships. The Nokia 3 wasn't our recommended budget phone in 2017, and it sure isn't in 2018 ei...

I really, really, really wanted to like the Nokia 3. I've always loved the way the company designs its smartphones, and the look and feel of this model is classic Nokia. I like the fact that it runs pure Android and that it has 16GB of storage. It's also...

In our experience the best way to get a cheap phone is to buy it SIM-free then grab a great-value SIM-only deal. You won't be paying £50-odd per month for a phone for the next two years, and you can swap it for a newer model whenever you fancy it. All t...

If there's one thing to write home about the Nokia 3, it's the design that exudes a premium feel. At first touch, you wouldn't feel you were holding an entry-level device, with its matte back and glossy, curved-glass front. But does the Nokia 3 hold its o...

Nokia's first stab at a budget Android smartphone looks great but apart from that, it doesn't bring anything noteworthy to the table. Its performance, battery life and camera very much reflect its budget price. Still, for $249, you won't find much better...

Nokia is back, and with it comes new Android phones. HMD Global, a Finnish startup, is using the Nokia brand to bring the new phones to the market, as well as a reboot of the famous and much-loved Nokia 3310. Here, we take a closer look at the Nokia 3...

We had high hopes for the Nokia 3, but the final phone is a bit of a disappointment. We can't deny that it looks absolutely fantastic for the price, and we're fans of Nokia's decision to stick to stock Android, but it's just cut too many corners on the in...

The Nokia 3 is the first attempt by HMD Global – the brand that owns the Nokia name – to create a budget smartphone. It's a wannabe Moto G5 rival, but one that doesn't quite offer as much as our favourite budget phone of 2017. The Nokia 3 is reminiscent...
