Android Central praised its camera as being "one of the best" in its $400 price category, and added that the 7 Plus is "one of the best phones of the year". At the same time, the phone's slow camera processing speed was criticised.{{Cite web |last=Mallick |first=Subhrojit |date=16 April 2018 |title=Nokia 7 Plus Review : Bold and beautiful |url=https://www.digit.in/reviews/mobile-phones/nokia-7-plus-review-125659.html |access-date=2024-04-29 |website=Digit |language=en}}

In March 2019, a report by Norwegian state broadcaster NRK found that some Nokia 7 Plus phones sent sensitive unencrypted personal information (including location and serial number) to a domain name controlled by China Telecom, every time the device was booted, and multiple times thereafter. HMD responded to the allegations, stating that carrier activation software intended for a different market was accidentally included in a batch of the devices, but that only "activation data" that could not be used to identify a user was sent and not processed, and that this error was fixed by the February 2019 software patch. Finnish authorities are investigating this as a violation of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).{{Cite web |last=Shah |first=Saqib |date=21 March 2019 |title=Finland is investigating Nokia phones sending data to China |url=https://www.engadget.com/2019-03-21-finland-investigating-nokia-data-china.html |access-date=2024-04-29 |website=Engadget |language=en}}{{Cite web |date=21 March 2019 |title=Nokia 7 Plus Units Sent Data to Chinese Server in 'Error', Says HMD Global |url=https://www.gadgets360.com/mobiles/news/nokia-7-plus-units-sent-data-to-chinese-server-in-error-says-hmd-global-2010930 |access-date=2024-04-29 |website=Gadgets 360 |language=en}}{{Cite web |last=Amadeo |first=Ron |date=22 March 2019 |title=HMD admits the Nokia 7 Plus was sending personal data to China |url=https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/03/hmd-admits-the-nokia-7-plus-was-sending-personal-data-to-china/ |access-date=2019-03-22 |website=Ars Technica |language=en-us}}
