Nokia G23 Detailed Descriptions:

Design

The Nokia G23 has a gently rigid plastic rear, one that doesn’t attempt to present itself as glass or metal. There’s no light-reactive layer, so its appearance is within reason low-key. And the textured rear impact provides a little grip.

The phone is available in two color options from us- Nordic Blue and Dusk. In the previous generation device, Nokia opted for a round camera housing. The new Nokia G23 comes with a more unassuming rounded rectangle that sits on the left corner of the device. 

Display

The Nokia G23 comes with a 6.5-inch LCD display, which is exactly what we would expect from a budget tool. It’s a 720p panel, not the 1080p one you’d see blanketed in phones from the likes of Realme and Xiaomi.

As we’ve seen in the early 2023 releases, even budget phones have a remarkable display but as you would guess that is not the case here. The color depth is much of “RGB”, missing plenty of OLED and LCD-based units but which cost a little more. We don’t mind this less-saturated look since it comes for a very budget price with a large display. In general, the G21’s Display is average.

Camera

The camera is the principal reason to choose the Nokia G23 over the others. The smartphone comes with a 50-megapixel grade-one sensor, which appears to be this semester’s hot resolution, visible in flagship phones such as the Samsung Galaxy S22. Of course, the version of the sensor here can’t compete with the ones in flagship phones, but it manages good images and video.

The Nokia G23 Camera App offers sound performance for a near-low-level smartphone. Shoot during the day and it captures photos with a slightly warm color temperature, solid HDR processing, and color that seems natural enough as a result of lack of oversaturation.

Performance and Software

The G23 runs on Android 13, which is now the older version of the operating system. Nokia would have made some high-level changes – such as improving color in the menu system – if they would have gone for the latest Android 12.

But why might the Android 13 be a benefit on the Nokia G23 instead of the Android 14? This is because it runs the cleanest model of the software program. No leftover apps, and no vexed additional team-up elements. The software doesn’t affect the overall performance of the G23 either.

The G23 has a slightly uncommon Unisoc chipset, the T606 (12 nm). This entry-level SoC is only used in more affordable phones such as the Samsung Galaxy A05 and the Nokia phones.  The general performance is reasonable and recommendable considering the Price.

Battery

Nokia G23 is more affordable compared to the new Samsung Galaxy S24 but that doesn’t mean it beats the initial in every aspect. Nokia offers a larger battery than the Samsung Galaxy S24 Series and the iPhone 15 Series.

Nokia claims that the 5050 mAh battery offers three days of battery life in their ‘real-world’ simulation of 5 hours a day of active general use.
