Anonymous, 24 Sep 2014nokia xl or galaxy core 2??? please help me!!it has a good quality resolution, nice graphics, and fast on screen capabilities.
although people has some issues in regards to taking pictures. the front camera is good in video calls actually. i think it's 7 over 10. (I think every phone hand sets should have their own unique on-screen themes, not the over rated standard windows 8 themes with colorful boxes, I'm thinking about state of the art graphics stuffs like HighDefs icons, High Quality Screen settings... every phone manufacturers should have their own unique ideas. That's all and thank you.)

I have been a loyal Nokia customer for years, but post buying Nokia XL, I swear to not buy any Nokia phone henceforth.
It is not just the worst phone possible, but has a long list of problems. Updating the phone at the care center only makes them worse. I even tried seeking help through the Nokia India's official page, but no reverts.
In case anyone wants to read on, here's the message I had posted to them. It has the details of all the major problems faced, in case you want to have a look.
Dear Nokia,
I’m one of the unfortunate loyal customers of Nokia who happened to buy a Nokia XL. I purchased the phone on June 8th and have constantly been plagued with varied major problems, minor apart. The care center and updating the phone seems useless and so I have been left with no option but to report you here. Here are some of the major problems I need to be sorted by your side at the earliest, because we don’t have all the time in the life to keep visiting the care centers with irrelevant and half-hazard replies.
Here’s a list of major issues.
1. The charging takes 4.5 hours to take it to 99%. If you use your phone for even messaging or anything, it doesn’t charge at all. And at times (many times) I’ve seen the battery come down after 35-40 minutes of charging too.
2. The battery if charged whole night (12am-7am), shows 99%. Twice I have been successful in making it 100%. This battery is drained by afternoon while the usage is minimum – Some calls, no game apps, minimal social network. You play games for an hour the battery is consumed almost 70%. These games needn’t be high graphic because most games and apps are not supported in this phone in the first place.
3. There is a range of apps that are not run at all in this phone. I wonder why you claim it to be android. Firstly, for months we dealed with a problem for Whatsapp. Basic apps like ‘Times of India’ too are not supported. Pdf files, word files though promised are not viewed at all. Nearly all racing games do not work even on successful installation.
4. I have bought a ‘white panel’ model. The color turned yellow within a matter of a couple of weeks. Today it is totally brownish at the sides. The back of the panel which is bounded with a cover is totally white as ever. I spotted a few disgruntled customers with the same issue at the same place at the same time (care center). It shows how cheap material has gone into the making. We were all told there that it is because of the contact with the air. I could not have expected any more of an amateur reply. There are so many phones that come in white. Basic companies that don’t even have a market; even their phones’ don’t turn out such a pain in terms of the color. In one word this is a CHEAP (in terms of quality) attempt.
5. Major problem is this ¬– When I speak on the phone the person on the other end really hears a low voice. I always have to take the phone away from my ears, near to my mouth & then speak. I hope I don’t get any silly answers for this such as the network or anything else. Everything is perfect. I have literally tried giving phone to those who complain. They have tried speaking too and I am pretty damn sure that if I go with this problem to the care center they will stupidly ask me to keep the phone to update and the problem undoubtedly won’t be solved.
6. The phone does not connect to the computer. The computer doesn’t detect it. One visit to the care center and I found 6 people with Nokia XL and they all said that it doesn’t read on the pc. The employee gave me a look and said this is impossible and that there must be some problem with my pc. As she said this she connected to the pc at your center and shut her mouth as it didn’t detect there too. After updating she tried to connect to the pc, it read. I went home and connected in the next one hour. Again the same. This is in word Ridiculous. How do we manage the memory and the apps?
7. Nokia XL is deprived of basic things. Do you even realize there’s nothing called ‘DRAFTS’ in Messaging? I mean what how did you even manage to make a smartphone that does not have a facility to save Drafts? Hats off!
I undoubtedly had to rely on ‘Messaging’ while whatsapp was not working. I tried to save a draft. In XL you can’t type a new message to the person if you have something typed in his chatbox already. So I saved it and created a new message. And sadly when the new message was sent and the chatbox opened, the entire long work message that I had typed had been wiped off without a trace. Mind you, it’s a pain when something important gets wiped off without a trace. I mean what was on your mind when you created a phone with no facility for ‘Drafts’. Even a 2k phone has drafts to save.
8. The phone gets switched off on itself and gets on, on itself again.
9. The phone gets hanged and the screen gets shaky at many random occasions. Mind you well, I don’t have many apps installed either (not supported anyways), so you can’t fool by saying that virus or anything. The phone is well protected with antivirus. (I can upload a video of how the screen shakes).
These are just a few from among the major problems but I hope at least these of all are solved and I am really pissed with the way this phone has turned after being a loyal Nokia user for years on end. I have never used a single phone that has not been NOKIA. But I assure you this is the last NOKIA phone I am using. And rather, MANY are using.
Expecting revert somehow still hoping that you do care for your customers.
Warm Regards,
Yugandhar Kakde
Mumbai, India.
