Drawbacks of Nokia XR21: Almost Perfect Rugged Smartphone

The XR21 comes with a three-year warranty as standard and a one-year screen replacement warranty for ANZ and EU customers and is backed by Gorilla Glass Victus protection. It is powered by a Qualcomm system-on-chip (Snapdragon 695), a 6.49-inch FHD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 550 nits brightness, and dual rear cameras (64-megapixel and 8-megapixel). The front-facing camera is a 16-megapixel snapper. The smartphone supports Wi-Fi-6E, NFC, and eSIM, with a pair of speakers, an audio jack, and a Type-C connector to USB 2.0.

Unlike its predecessor, the XR21 does not support wireless charging, but it has a larger battery (4800mAh) and supports fast charging of up to 33W. The smartphone also supports Android 15, with four years of monthly security updates, making it ideal for enterprise/business users.
