TheNokia 2.2 is aNokia-branded entry-levelAndroidsmartphone released in June 2019.[2] It is the successor toNokia 2.1.
The Nokia 2.2 weighs 153 g and is 9.3 mm thin.[2] The phone is made of a solidpolycarbonate body with a high-gloss finish,[3] and is available in two colours: Black or Steel.
The device front has a dewdrop notch and relatively thinbezels, with a chin at the bottom with the Nokia logo. The overall design and size are similar to that of the mid-rangeNokia 6.1 Plus/X6. Like many other entry-level phones, the dewdrop notch cannot be hidden.
The device has aMediaTek Helio A22SoC with 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage. In some regions, a lower-cost variant with 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB storage is also offered.
The Nokia 2.2 has a single 13-megapixel camera on the back and a 5 MP camera on the front.[3] Its rear camera has a dedicatednight mode to take better pictures in low-light conditions.[4][2]
Like other Nokia phones of this generation, the Nokia 2.2 has a dedicatedGoogle Assistant button on the left of the phone, which can be pressed to quickly activate the Google Assistant, or held and released for the Google Assistant to start and stop listening.[3]
The phone has a user-removable 3000 mAh battery, and amicroUSB port. This is HMD Global's third device with removable battery, the first two beingNokia 1 andNokia 1 Plus.
The Nokia 2.2, unlike its predecessors, runs onAndroid One instead ofAndroid Go due to its increased RAM and storage capacity. The device is updatable toAndroid 11.[5]
The Nokia 2.2 has received mixed reviews. Vignesh Giridharan ofDigit stated: "With its overall low performance and low value for money, the Nokia 2.2 exists in the market only to remind you that there are superior models in the market for a slightly higher asking price, like theNokia 4.2 andRedmi 7.".[6]
On the other hand, Damien Wilde of9to5Google praised the phone, saying "While the Nokia 2.2 is a nice little oddity in a market of high-end flagships and mid-range value for money, in all honesty, you’re still far better off getting a used device or just upping your budget a little further for an overall better smartphone. The Pixel 3a is still the outright benchmark for budget phones in the US, and you’d be far better off grabbing one over the Nokia 2.2 if you value performance and overall experience".[7]
