What the critics say (scores are out of 100)

90/100

TechRadar | Holly Brockwell

It has a few downsides, and it's up against some heavy hitters in the budget category, but HMD's reboot of last year's Nokia 6 is a tasty, thick slice of pure Android goodness.

Ars Technica | Ron Amadeo

As the first HMD device we've really reviewed, the Nokia 6.1 is extremely impressive. Still, the Nokia 6.1 is beautifully built to a price.

The Nokia 6 is, on balance, a very fine phone for the money. It looks stylish, performs at a similar rate to its rivals and gives you an exceptionally good screen for your cash.

The Inquirer | Lee Bell

The Nokia 6 might not be the creme de la creme, but offers a decent upgrade compared to its predecessor and is a decent effort compared to other smartphones in the same price bracket.

If the Nokia 6 (2018)'s stellar build quality, clean software package, good battery life and solid performance appeal to you, the variant with 3GB of RAM ... is the one to buy.

AndroidPit | Silvia Santos

If you purchase this device, you'll know what you have in your hand and you'll have to avoid comparing it with much more advanced devices. And it's pretty cheap as well, so the device has a lot going for it.

91mobiles | Prateek Pandey

Nokia 6 (2018) is undoubtedly one of the most good-looking smartphones in the affordable segment right now. Moreover, it's a drastic improvement over its predecessor as it features improved camera capabilities, smoother performance and comes with a promise of software updates for at least the next two years.

phoneArena | Victor Hristov

... there is one big compromise that you have to make with the Nokia 6.1: its display. It looks bluish, with washed out colors. We understand that you cannot expect wonders from the display of an affordable phone and while this screen is certainly not a dealbreaker, rivals have raised the bar and the Nokia 6.1 display is just not quite on par, plus there is no way to fix its issues in the settings. If you can live with that, the Nokia 6.1 (2018) has the performance and even the camera to impress at this price point, but that's one big if.

Last Updated: 17th February 2019

How HandsetExpert Works: We don't run ads on the site, or charge users to use the site. The site is funded using commission links, where we may receive a commission if a phone or tariff is purchased via HandsetExpert. Our editorial, phone scoring and recommendation system and deal-finding algorithms are not affected by this; we are fiercely committed to providing unbiased, independent information.

Important notes

  • We aim to compare as many tariffs in the marketplace from the UK as possible. However, we do not include every package (e.g. legacy tariffs no longer available, or tariffs only available to existing/specific customers), nor do we detail every aspect of every tariff (e.g. international out of bundle rates, on-network minutes, etc).
  • SIM only deals are limited to 30-day and 12-month plans, excluding shorter plans and Pay As You Go rates.
  • For tariffs which offer "unlimited" allowances, there may be times where traffic management or fair usage policies apply.
  • Additional charges for payment methods other than direct debit and for itemised/paper billing may apply.
  • Data only SIM cards, mobile broadband packages, and pay monthly tablets are currently not included in the comparison.
  • Out of bundle charges are not included in the calculation of Average Monthly Cost.
  • Contracts may not be available for some phone models in all colours and/or sizes, and a small number may only be available either as a pay monthly contract or a contract free handset, but not both.
  • Providers may increase the cost of your contract by RPI (inflation). However, if prices are increased that then cause a materially detrimental impact, you have the right to exit your contract without penalty. More details available from Ofcom plus comparative information on customer service and complaints handling & their guide on how to complain.
