HMD Global, which owns the Nokia brand, a few months ago came up with a new Nokia smartphone i.e. the Nokia 7.2. Although the device does not come with flagship-level specs, it surely packs some punch in the camera department. As per DxOMark, the Nokia 7.2 has tied in the camera performance score with the company’s camera-centric device, the Nokia 9 PureView. For naive, the Nokia 9 PureView is the first smartphone that features a Penta-camera setup. And with a triple camera housing, the Nokia 7.2 has come at level with the DxOMark score of the Nokia 9 PureView.
To recall, the Nokia 7.2 packs in features like Snapdragon 660 chipset, 4/6 GB of RAM, offers up to 128 GB of onboard storage, a 3,500 mAh battery, 6.3-inch display and a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner as well. Talking about the heart of the matter, the cameras on the device, it sports a triple 48 MP (f/1.8, wide) + 8 MP (f/2.2, ultrawide) + 5 MP (depth sensor) at the back and also features Zeiss optics, LED flash, panorama, HDR. The front camera is a single 20MP sensor.
Taking a look at the DxOMark camera score it has performed well and has tied with the Nokia 9 PureView. Both the devices have totalled an overall score of 85. However, the Nokia 7.2 falls short in the Video category as it scores 75 while the Nokia 9 PureView grabs a score of 80.
But, if we take a closer look at the scores, the Nokia 7.2 scores 90 in the Photo category while the Nokia 9 PureView scores 2 points less at 88, which gives us a clear indication that the cameras on the Nokia 7.2 perform slightly better than the Nokia 9.
