First Impressions

[KrisYYC]

So I just un-boxed my Nokia 9 and I'm in the process of setting it up and downloading my apps etc.

First impressions are very good. The screen is VERY nice. I was actually surprised by this because most of the reviewers don't talk much about the display, but I really like it, the colours are great and it's nice and bright when needed and it's tac sharp. I have an S10 which is supposedly the pinnacle of display quality but to be honest I think I like the Nokia 9 display better

Hardware feels solid and high quality in true Nokia fashion. It's a bit on the large size for me as I tend to prefer smaller phones, but considering the camera array this thing packs I'm not going to fault it.

Audio quality via Bluetooth headphones is good too. No complaints.

That's great! Mine's coming on Monday.

Let us know how the fingerprint scanner is working or if there are any other things that stick out to you.

Yeah, this is the first time I've really seen someone comment on the screen, and that's pretty wild if you feel it compares to the S10 considering Samsung's reputation.

I actually didn't even set up the fingerprint scanner. I have trouble with traditional fingerprint scanners (calloused hands) let alone the in display ones. Considering the issues reviewers are having I decided to just use pin code for now until a potential fix is out.

The S10 screen is very nice, but there's something slightly different about the Nokia display that I prefer. I think it's the colour profile or something. At least the way my eyes see it. It's more evident using apps and messaging rather than watching YouTube or something. The Nokia looks sharper and "punchier" than the S10. Hard to explain.

I'm getting faster LTE speeds than my Samsung does for some reason. Almost double. That could be a setting that needs changing on my Samsung though.
