Reception
Android Police criticized the Nokia 2.3 for still using a microUSB port over USB C, however praised the extra camera on the back.[4] They say "The 2.3 hones in on that streamlining, enlarges a couple of aspects, but mostly retains much of the kit from the last go around."[4]
Trusted Reviews say the most impressive part of the 2.3 is its two-day battery life. They also say the phone being part of the Android One program is a stand-out feature.[5]
