It hasn't update for a long time.
I made some adjustments to make it support higher Android versions, But no features.
It's great. I hope in the future same goes for flagship devices. At the moment it feels like getting a phone like this or Fairphone, you make a compromise in having a sustainable phone but only get mid-range specs.
Same should go for software side. For example I just bought a 3 years old Oneplus 8 Pro, still a banger phone running Snapdragon 865 with 12gb of RAM but updates will end soon. Sure I could go for LOS but then I have to deal with banking apps not working etc. 2-3 Years software support is a joke.
@dave1904 same here for me. Sustainability is critical these days, but the key elements that once existed such as the ability to remove and replace the battery, plus updates made end of life on flagship models is nothing more than a revenue generator for the tech companies releasing new handsets almost every year.
Don't get me started on Apple.....

Frankly this is ridiculous. Luckily the banking apps I use were fine, although one health insurance app I use threw up so many warnings that it was just easier to use their website
@julian it is definitely ridiculous. I could rather use my 15 years old Android 2 HTC Desire than a rooted phone with current security patches. I know there are workarounds with Magisk Hide etc. but in the past it was such a pain that I just sticked to stock rom.
@dave1904 I will admit this is also one reason why I ended up with a Pixel. The Nokia 6.1 (just like my Xiaomi phone) ended up slowing down with subsequent Android releases, so much so that the mid-range CPU couldn't handle it.
Disabling animations only gets you so far...

It seems things are moving slowly in that direction (obviously thanks to regulatory pressures) - Pixels allowing re-pairing fingerprint sensor after replacement, iPhone 14 allowing for sane back glass replacements, Samsung finally adding battery pull-tabs in S23.
I just hope these moves don't stop regulation attempts (at least until they go much further), but otherwise they are very promising.
It looks so nice as usual. I can easily remember before 5-7 years ago Nokia has a great demand of using their device all over the world. But now-a-days it's rare. And only a few people are using Nokia device. Overall, I have a good experience with Nokia, Model-1100. Because I used this one for a longer period of time. Thanks a lot!
