All of them come with a plastic body, with Xiaomi Redmi Go showing fairly thick bezels around the panel due to the 16:9 aspect ratio.

The inner memory goes up to 32 GB (furtherly expandable with a micro SD), although you take max 16 GB for the Nokia 1 Plus and just 8 GB for Xiaomi Redmi Go. Note that Nokia 1 Plus is the only one based on Android Pie, so it need to come with much better software optimization. However, its lower-end chipset and its low quantity of RAM do not push it at the exactly level as the Zenfone Live L1. Nokia 1 Plus has improved Wi-Fi connectivity as well as a much more advanced Bluetooth version.

Camera

Further, it has a front-facing LED flash, unlike its rivals. At the second place, we put the Xiaomi Redmi Go with its 8 MP rear snapper, nothing unique but it clicks respectable pictures whenever light conditions are good. Nokia 1 Plus is a bit disappointing, particularly on the video side as it can only record in 720p with its 8 MP rear sensor.
