Editorial report

Nokia G21 4 GB / 64 GB / Latin America technical sheet

The Nokia G21 suits buyers looking for a straightforward Android phone who value battery capacity; overall, it ranks worse than most phones launched around the same time. This version has 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage. The phone is also sold with 4 GB / 128 GB and 6 GB / 128 GB, giving buyers options with more room for files and apps.

Its 6.5-inch IPS LCD display has a 90 Hz refresh rate. However, its 270 ppi density is lower than that of most phones of its time, and peak brightness of 400 nits is among the weakest. Those are notable limits for buyers prioritizing a sharp, bright screen. The main camera has 50 MP resolution, but its 1/2.76″ sensor is smaller than that of most phones launched around the same time, and it has no optical image stabilization. The 5050 mAh battery has more capacity than those in most phones of its time, while 18 W fast charging is typical.

Battery capacity is the Nokia G21’s clearest strength; screen brightness, pixel density, and sensor size are its main compromises. Its overall NeoScore is 4.3, worse than most phones launched around the same time. It is an option for buyers who prioritize a large-capacity battery and core Android features over a sharper display or a larger camera sensor.
