In terms of design, the unibody Nokia 8 has everything a premium handset should have. The 6000 series aluminium with matte and glossy finishes add to its aesthetics. The thickness of 7.90mm seems a bit less, especially considering the 3090mAh battery. The curved edges make it feel even thinner. You won’t face any issues in daily use.
The most important feature of the smartphone is its camera. HMD Global company is boasting about the ‘bothie’ feature of this phone in the market. Actually, with its help, you will be able to capture photos and videos simultaneously from both the cameras. You will also be able to live stream the videos made in Bothie mode on apps like Facebook and YouTube. We also tested this feature and we have no complaints.
HMD has taken advantage of its partnership with Nokia to integrate the company’s 360 VR camera technology into the Nokia 8. The smartphone comes with a high dynamic range microphone. With this, the phone can record surround sound using the Nokia Ozo audio algorithm. HMD says that even if users share the video on social media, the virtual surround sound will remain a part of the video with the help of software encoding.
A 13-megapixel RGB sensor is provided on the front panel. This sensor is also a part of the primary camera. You can record 4K videos with the front and rear cameras. The rear camera comes with laser autofocus and dual-tone LED flash.
Talking about the specifications, the Nokia 8 uses the Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor, which is part of other flagship Android devices of this generation. It comes with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. You will also be able to use a microSD card up to 256GB. The dual SIM variant of the phone has been launched in India. Stay tuned to Gadgets 360 for a detailed review of the handset.
