Nokia 6 2018 Vs Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro: Specs Comparison

The budget segment of smartphones in India has seen an influx of some great devices. In 2017, the Xiaomi Mi A1, Moto G5s Plus and the Honor 7X were some of the best budget Android devices. 2018 did not have a bad start either, the Honor 9 Lite with its all-glass design and quad-camera setup turned some heads. However, in February, Xiaomi launched the smartphone to beat in this segment, the Redmi Note 5 Pro. Now, HMD Global has launched the Nokia 6 2018 in India at a price of Rs 16999 which will be sold offline only.

In our review of the Redmi Note 5 Pro, we expressed that this was the true successor to the Redmi Note 4. However, Xiaomi also launched the Redmi Note 5 which has been selling well in the previous flash sales. The Nokia 6 2018, on the other hand, succeeds the Nokia 6 from 2017 which left a lot to be desired thanks to its extravagant pricing.

Dual-Camera Redmi Note 5 Pro

With the Nokia 6 2018, HMD Global has provided better specifications while retaining the 16:9 aspect ratio. This means that despite its new colour accents, the Nokia 6 2018 will look like an older smartphone when compared with the likes of Redmi Note 5 Pro and Honor 7X. It is also worth noting that these two devices cost less than the Nokia 6 2018. The new Nokia 6 also retains a single camera setup on the back while its competitors sport a dual camera setup.
