Nokia 2.4: Should You Buy?

The Nokia 2.4 packs several features that make it a good choice. For one, it runs stock Android 10 - a feature many might prefer over the bloatware and ads in the OS on Xiaomi and other smartphones. That said, the smartphone is slightly above Rs. 10K, which again makes it a little difficult to fit into everyone's budget. Yet, the Nokia 2.4 packs several features that make it worth the price tag.
