Nokia recently launched a range of new handsets, including the mid-range 5G-capable Nokia X20. This 6.67-inch handset, which costs from £319.99 (with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage), heads up Nokia's recent announcements, and sits in a very crowded segment of the market. Competition includes capable phones like the £349 Samsung Galaxy A52 5G, the £329 OnePlus Nord N10 5G and the £270 Realme 7 Pro and the £299 Motorola Moto G 5G Plus. All are worthy opponents, and there are plenty of others in the same price bracket. When Nokia launched the X20, parent company HMD Global also announced it was becoming an MVNO (Mobile Virtual Network Operator). The HMD Mobile service will offer 5G at some point, but for now anyone buying the X20 through Nokia will get a 90-day bundle of 15GB a month of data. But they won't get 5G – that's coming, but the connection is currently 4G. That's a shame, given that the X20 is a 5G handset.
Buy through Nokia and your X20 will have 8GB of RAM as well as that mobile bundle. Although you pay £20 extra over the entry-level 6GB, bundle-free handset, the price difference is negligible, and even if you don't want the 90-day mobile network deal, the RAM boost should give a lift to performance. I was sent the higher-spec device for review.
The phone ships without a wall charger (just a USB-C cable), which shouldn't be a big deal to most of us as we'll already have wall chargers and there's no fast-charging capability that requires a specialist wall plug. There is a biodegradable bumper case in the box. These features are part of the environmental offer, now being espoused by HMD, which also includes -- if you buy your handset direct -- a tree-planting deal. Different phones are 'worth' a different number of trees: the X20 is worth 20 trees while the new G10 and G20 are both worth 10 trees. The trees are planted on your behalf if you register your handset.
The Nokia X20 is nicely designed, with a solid feel in the hand and an attractive backplate. There are two colour options. Midnight Sun is a bronze/gold finish, while my review handset was Nordic Blue, a darkish shade of blue. Both options have a matte finish to the backplate that's less slippery than many, and the phone did quite well on my 'sofa test', clinging to the arm fairly well, although it did slide about when vibrating alerts were turned on.
There is a 3.5mm headset jack on the bottom edge of the phone and a fingerprint sensor is embedded in the on/off button on the right edge. I found the latter effective, although face unlock is also an option. There is a button dedicated to calling up Google Assistant on the left edge, where you'll also find the SIM caddy. The X20 accommodates two SIMs or one SIM and a MicroSD card.
The camera array sits in a circular housing in the upper centre of the backplate. With the phone on a desk, pressing down on the screen on either side anywhere above halfway causes
