Review: HMD Crest Max: A 21-Month Report Card on Build Quality and Clean Androi - I'm writing this review after owning the HMD Crest Max for approximately 21 months (1.8 years). My purchase decision was made early—right at launch—and out of necessity. After my trusty Samsung phone finally gave up after nearly six years of service, I had an urgent need, leading me to pay ₹15,000 for the Crest Max. While I know the price dropped significantly later (I could've saved money by waiting a year!), the need for a reliable daily driver was immediate. ​The Build Quality and Nostalgia Factor ​First, let's talk about the design and build. HMD really nailed the nostalgia here. The back design clearly pays homage to the classic Nokia Lumia era, and it brings back some great memories. More importantly, the build quality is exceptionally solid. I am not the gentlest user, and I've dropped this phone—hard—more than six or seven times. Every time, I expected a cracked screen, but the display remains completely intact and functional. It genuinely feels like a device built to last, honoring the old Nokia reputation for durability. ​Clean Software: A Budget Pixel Experience ​One of the biggest selling points, and a feature that has stood the test of time, is the software. The Crest Max runs a clean Android UI, offering what is essentially a Pixel-like experience in a budget package. There's zero bloatware and the performance is smooth and streamlined, a massive relief compared to the ugly, custom UIs I see on so many competitor devices. For someone who chases clean software over raw specs, this is a massive win, and it makes the daily usage experience truly enjoyable. ​Performance, Display, and the Great Storage Value ​The phone is powered by a processor that some might "nitpick" about, but for the average user, it’s more than enough. I need to be clear: this phone is not built for gaming. If you avoid heavy graphic-intensive titles, the Crest Max delivers reliable, lag-free performance for all your social media, streaming, and work needs. ​The true luxury comes in the memory department: 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. This kind of configuration for the price I paid is fantastic value. Samsung, for comparison, would easily charge at least ₹25,000 for the same variant. HMD's pricing strategy here is incredibly generous, especially considering the HMD Fusion variant offers this same memory configuration at an even lower price point (around ₹11,000). ​The OLED display is another highlight. It's sharp, clear, and vibrant, and I've experienced zero green light issues, a common and frustrating defect even on Samsung's phones costing over a lakh rupees. While the screen is visible outdoors, it’s fair to say it’s not built for the brightest outdoor conditions, but it performs admirably otherwise. ​The Only Disappointment: Camera Specs ​My only real source of disappointment came later with the launch of the HMD Fusion. While the Crest Max features a reliable 64MP main camera, the Fusion surprisingly launched with a 108MP camera, despite having an LCD panel instead of the Crest Max's superior OLED. I also noticed the Fusion came with attractive bundles (gaming console, back covers), which did feel like the Crest Max was overlooked a little on the feature front. However, setting the camera resolution aside, the Crest Max is a solid, cohesive package. ​A Plea to HMD ​HMD has earned my trust and respect by being a genuinely customer-friendly brand. They were generous enough to include the charger and a soft silicon case free of cost in the box. This is a commendable stand against the trend set by big brands like Apple and Samsung, who shamelessly copy each other by cutting essentials in the name of the "environment." I strongly urge HMD: please do not follow this anti-consumer move in the future. Small brands truly pay attention to detail, unlike the big players. ​I would also like to take a moment to thank HMD for making such a beautiful, reliable device. As someone who values clean software and solid build quality over chasing specs, I can confidently trust HMD over the Chinese OEMs flooding the market with ugly custom UIs. Thank you also to desertcart for partnering with HMD and giving them a platform to market their quality phones. ​Final Verdict ​If you can find the HMD Crest Max available, especially at a discount, I wholeheartedly recommend purchasing it to support the HMD brand. You absolutely will not be disappointed. Keep making such beautiful devices, HMD, and always listen to your loyal customers! I wish you the best in your business.
