This is part of a “clearance” deal run by Best Buy to, well, get rid of unlocked 128GB inventory roughly two years after the commercial debut of the 6.39-inch Android 10 handset at a recommended price of $249.99.
From a hardware standpoint, the deeply discounted phone is similarly equipped with a mix of decent and not-so-great features, including an octa-core Snapdragon 662 processor, 4GB RAM count, 48MP primary rear-facing shooter, and a rear-mounted fingerprint scanner.
The 1560 x 720 pixel resolution of the 6.39-inch IPS LCD screen and the other three cameras slapped on the Nokia 5.4’s back are probably the handset’s biggest weaknesses, but a 4,000mAh battery purportedly capable of delivering up to two days of endurance between charges and the generous aforementioned 128 gigs of internal storage space are arguably enough to make this a compelling last-minute deal for Christmas stocking stuffer hunters.
Compared to the slightly cheaper Moto G Power (2021), the Nokia 5.4 actually offers weaker battery life but also double the local digital hoarding room, so you’re not exactly faced with an easy choice here.
