The Nokia XR20 5G, likely under $450 in 2025, offers a 6.67-inch FHD+ display, Snapdragon 480 5G chipset, and 4630 mAh battery with wireless charging, making it a rugged 5G choice for tough environments. The 48MP dual-camera system delivers decent shots, though its 60Hz display feels outdated, and its 248g weight may deter some.
