A couple of days back nokia(hmd global) launched its flagship The nokia8. Nokia8 feels great in hand and looks cool in its colourful polished colours like the new colours cooper and blue.Its a flagship so it comes with all the flagship grade specs u need.
DESGN AND DISPLAY-
Nokia8 design is one of its key elements so its one of the beautiful phones with the nokia branding on the back available in the market.It has an aluminium unibody design that includes metal edges around the phone.The body of the phone is thin coming out with thickness of 7.9mm but the edges curve down so its sits comfortably in your one hand. It comes with a 5.3 inch screen.Its a LCD panel that has 2k reslolution with 700 nits of brightness.Thats high for a smartphone so it wont problem you in outdoors.Antenna bands are visible in the top and bottom of the phone which gives it a cool look.Below the screen is a fast acting fingerprint sensor between the two navigation buttons which is at a easy to reach position which makes fingerprint sensor accessible.
BATTERY AND POWER
Nokia8 taunts with the latest best in class Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 which is very powerful.It is coupled with 4GB of ram,making it match with the other flagships in the market.There's also internal storage of 64GB and micro sd card support upto 256GB.the 835 processor would allow for some great battery life.Nokia has included only a Nokia has 3090 mah of battery which would struggle power a OHD screen .Nokia has also included a liquid cooling system which should mean that phone would run smooth and won't get hot but use a lot of power.The phone can be charged via a USB TYPE-C at the bottom and phone does supports Quick charge3.0.
NOKIA 8 CAMERA -

Selfie camera-
13-megapixel lens (f/2.0 aperture)

Up to 4K resolution video recording.
Nokia8 has dual camera setup so it features a RGB lens and a Monochrome lens which wboth combine to give better lowlight pictures.
One awful feature Nokia has added is #BOTHIE:Ability to take pictures from both rear and front facing cameras the same time. Well it looks great.There are apps too which feature this but having this in your camera app itself might feel easy to use. It's a little cool feature and a feature which might feel handy when u want to do facebook or youtube live-streams same time.
VERDICT-
Nokia 8 seems like a full package with powerful specs,attractive design,bright QHD Display and some interesting camera featrures.Nokia 8 might have to struggle between the other flagships like Oneplus5, samsung galaxy S8,HTC U11 and more.It costs quite higher than the oneplus 5 or Honor 8 which offer same specs and work fine. The cmpany took too long to launch this phone which can effect it's sales.This phone was one of the most anticipated phone of the year as Nokia had a comeback.Hereby ,I will be posting a depth review of this phone when it will be launched globally in the month of september and its preorders gave started in Australia,Russia and Germany.
- In Germany, it is up for pre-orders for EUR 577
- In Australia, it is up for pre-orders for AUD 899
It would be interesting to see at what price it would be launched in india.
