Nokia 7 Plus — Full Specifications, Features & Price in Pakistan

Introduction

The Nokia 7 Plus was HMD's 2018 hero mid-ranger: 6-inch 18:9 display, Snapdragon 660, dual Zeiss cameras with 2x optical zoom, and a 3800mAh battery in a copper-accented aluminium body. Launched in Pakistan at Rs. 49,500 to genuine acclaim. Discontinued now, but still the most desirable used Nokia in this slice. Verified specs and honest 2026 assessment below.

Design and Build Quality

The 7 Plus is the best-looking phone here: a 6000-series aluminium unibody milled from a single block, with copper-coloured chamfered edges and camera surround that still turn heads. At 158.4 x 75.6 x 8 mm and 183 g it feels dense and flagship-like. Black/Copper and White/Copper were the colours. Nokia's toughness testing applied. No water-resistance rating. Used units: check the copper accents for wear (they show chips readily) and the anodising on corners.

Display Features

The 6-inch 1080 x 2160 IPS LCD (18:9, ~403 ppi, Gorilla Glass 3) was flagship-adjacent in 2018 — sharp, laminated and polarised for good outdoor visibility, with 1500:1 contrast. In 2026 it remains a genuinely good screen: sharp text, accurate colours, sensible size. Not HDR like the 6.2's PureDisplay, but higher quality than the 720p 5-series panels. Check used units for backlight uniformity and touch responsiveness across the panel.

Processor and Performance

The Snapdragon 660 (14nm, 4x2.2 GHz + 4x1.8 GHz Kryo 260, Adreno 512) was the premium mid-range chip of 2018 and is the fastest silicon in this slice. In 2026 it handles everyday apps, social media, and even moderate gaming better than any sibling here — the Adreno 512 outmuscles the 509/508/610 GPUs around it. It will still show its age with the heaviest 2026 games and extreme multitasking, but for general daily use it is the most comfortable old Nokia chip to live with.

RAM and Storage

4GB LPDDR4 RAM with 64GB eMMC 5.1 storage in the Pakistan/global variant, expandable via microSD to 256GB in the hybrid slot. 4GB/64GB is adequate for 2026 light-to-moderate use with media on the memory card. (Some markets saw a 6GB variant — verify in Settings if claimed.) As always, confirm the real configuration on the device rather than the box.

Camera Features

The dual Zeiss camera is the 7 Plus's crown jewel: a 12 MP main sensor (f/1.75, large 1.4µm pixels, dual-pixel PDAF) plus a 13 MP telephoto (f/2.6) delivering 2x optical zoom — lossless zoom, rare and valuable. Gyro-EIS steadies video; 4K@30fps recording; Pro mode with manual controls. The 16 MP Zeiss front camera was superb for selfies. In 2026 it remains the best camera in this slice for daylight and portraits — the optical zoom alone sets it apart. Low light without OIS needs a steady hand.

Battery and Charging

3800 mAh — the biggest battery here — with 18W fast charging (about 43% in 30 minutes per launch coverage). At launch it was a genuine two-day-light-use phone; in 2026, expect a full day of moderate use from a degraded cell, with quick top-ups via fast charging. The sealed battery means replacement is a shop job. Verify fast charging engages and the phone holds charge overnight on inspection.

Software and Updates

Android 8.1 Oreo (Android One) at launch, upgraded to Android 9 then Android 10; security patches ended around 2021. Android 10 still runs most 2026 apps, so the 7 Plus works as a general daily driver — with the standard expired-patches caveat for banking and payment apps. Its support window (to Android 10) matches the best in this slice. Confirm stock Android 10, not a modified ROM.

Connectivity and Additional Features

4G LTE (Cat 6), dual Nano-SIM standby (hybrid), dual-band Wi-Fi ac, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS/GLONASS/BeiDou, NFC, FM radio, USB-C with OTG, 3.5mm jack — complete. Nokia OZO audio with three microphones gives excellent recording quality, a standout feature for video. Rear fingerprint sensor; full sensor array. No 5G, as expected for 2018.

Variants, Colours and Availability

Naming trap: the 7 Plus (2018, global, 6-inch, Snapdragon 660, dual Zeiss camera) is entirely different from the Nokia 7 (2017, China-only, 5.2-inch, Snapdragon 630, single camera). Verify the chipset and screen size in About phone. Pakistan/global variant: 4GB/64GB in Black/Copper or White/Copper. Discontinued — 2026 supply is used units; it commands the highest used prices in this slice, which its camera and chip justify against siblings.

Price in Pakistan and PTA Information

Launch price was Rs. 49,500 (TechJuice, 2018). Current figures conflict: Hamariweb lists Rs. 29,900 (updated 06 Oct 2026) while whatsmobile shows Rs. 39,999 — all stale listing figures for a discontinued phone, not live quotes. Realistic used pricing sits below these levels by condition; expect the 7 Plus to cost more used than any sibling here. Zohaan's catalog reference of Rs. 20,000 (Oct 2026 import) is not a verified market price — confirm the store's actual used price directly.

PTA approval is checked per device, not per model. Two used phones of the same model can have different DIRBS/PTA status depending on how each unit entered Pakistan. Before paying for any used phone, check the IMEI through the official PTA DIRBS channel and match it with the IMEI printed on the handset. Zohaan Mobile Gallery's guide on how to check PTA approval walks through the process step by step.

Main Advantages and Limitations

Advantages:

• Snapdragon 660 — fastest chip in this slice.
• Dual Zeiss camera with 2x optical zoom; 16 MP Zeiss selfie camera.
• 3800 mAh battery + 18W fast charging.
• Striking copper-accented aluminium unibody.
• Nokia OZO audio; full connectivity incl. NFC.

Limitations:

• Security updates ended ~2021; avoid banking apps.
• No OIS; low-light video needs steady hands.
• Hybrid slot forces SIM-vs-storage choice.
• Eight-year-old battery degraded; priciest used Nokia here.

Who Should Consider This Phone?

The used 7 Plus is for the buyer who wants the best old Nokia money can buy in this range: the strongest chip, the best camera system (that 2x optical zoom is genuinely useful), the biggest battery and the nicest design. It suits a photography-leaning budget buyer, a Nokia enthusiast, or anyone wanting the most capable secondary phone. It is not for security-sensitive primary use, heavy 2026 gaming, or buyers needing a sharp-battery all-day phone without top-ups. If the used premium over the 6.2 is large, the 6.2's ultrawide and HDR screen are a smart alternative.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the price of the Nokia 7 Plus in Pakistan?

Rs. 49,500 at its 2018 launch; current listings conflict (Rs. 29,900 Hamariweb vs Rs. 39,999 whatsmobile) — all stale figures for a discontinued phone. Used units trade below these; confirm the exact used price with Zohaan Mobile Gallery.

Is it better than the Nokia 7?

Yes, comprehensively: bigger 6-inch display, faster Snapdragon 660, dual Zeiss camera with 2x optical zoom, and a 3800 mAh battery vs the 7's 3000 mAh. They are completely different phones.

What processor does it use?

Snapdragon 660 (14nm) with Adreno 512 — the fastest chip among the nine phones in this guide.

Does the camera really have optical zoom?

Yes — the 13 MP telephoto provides 2x optical zoom, lossless, which is rare in this price bracket even today.

What is the battery capacity and charging?

3800 mAh with 18W fast charging (about 43% in 30 minutes). Expect a day of moderate use from a degraded 2026 cell.

Does it support 5G?

No — 4G LTE (Cat 6) only.

Will it get more updates?

No. Android 10 was the last OS; security patches ended around 2021.

Is it available at Zohaan Mobile Gallery?

Final Verdict

The Nokia 7 Plus earned its reputation — Snapdragon 660, dual Zeiss cameras with real 2x optical zoom, 3800 mAh battery and the copper-trimmed unibody. In 2026 it is the most desirable used Nokia here, worth its used premium if camera and performance matter. Check trim wear, battery hold and fast charging, confirm the IMEI's PTA status, and keep banking apps off it.
