Our Thoughts On Nokia 2.2:

The Nokia 2.2 is no doubt the cheapest Android One powered smartphone. The device is promised to get timely software updates for two years which will improve its performance over time. However, the device offers some entry segment hardware and misses on dual-lens camera setup which is common in budget smartphones these days. In this price range, you can also consider the Redmi 7 which offers some better specifications than the Nokia 2.2.
