The Nokia G21 is the successor to the G20 from last year. The Nokia G20 was a good phone but in my review, I said that it had a very long way to go. The G21 may be the device that will build on this and make this phone series great. This is just me being hopeful at this point and I will have to use the phone extensively to determine that.
