Impressions:
On Nokia 6.1 Plus the Android 9 Pie Beta update runs smoothly and is relatively stable with no freezes/reboots so far for us. It is quite polished and the option of gesture-based navigation adds freshness to the experience.
Battery life has been mostly similar to what we have seen on the Oreo so far, but we will share more on that later as we keep on testing it. In case you find issues/bugs please share in comments below.
