Camera: 3/5
The Nokia 5's 13MP rear camera and 8MP front camera are adequate for basic photography. However, they lack the advanced features and stellar performance found in high-end smartphones. The camera's low light performance and overall image quality are also average, which is a letdown for photography enthusiasts.
