Question price
In China, the price of the Nokia X6 starts at $ 205 for the base model, the 4/64 GB version costs about $ 235. For a smartphone in the top configuration (6/64 GB), ask for $ 270. Close to the design and characteristics of the Huawei P20 will cost significantly more, and even the Vivo Y85 on the Snapdragon 450 costs under $ 300. More closely priced Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 (from $ 173) is equipped with a "high" screen without a cutout and a more capacious battery, but the competitor's size is larger.
