Nokia 8 Review

Score: 73.8 / 100

Nokia 8 is a wonderful phone released in August 2017, including a high performance 2500 megahertz Octa-Core processor, a quite big 5.3-inches screen, a 13 mega-pixels back side camera and a 13 megapixels front camera.

Nokia decided to equip this cellphone with an exceptional Octa-Core processor clocking at 2500 megahertz, included in a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 MSM8998 chip and a great 4 GB of RAM. The Nokia 8 has a 64 GB excellent internal storage and an external memory slot, allowing the user to store tons of apps, games, songs, pictures and videos without thinking about filling the cellphone.

About its construction quality, this phone is created with Aluminum . Nokia made this phoneavailable just in three different colors: blue, brown and silver. The Nokia 8 has an inspired design, with a thickness of just 0.31". Even though this phone is just 5.96" long and 2.9 inches wide, it is able to fit a a 5.3 inches screen. Nokia made an amazing job making the Nokia 8 weight only 5.64 oz.

This phone has two cameras, a 13 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 13 MP front camera. Even though it's 13 mega-pixels may sound amazing the back-facing camera has a very little 0.326797 inches sensor which makes pictures be less detailed and darker than you would expect. It also shoots videos in 3840x2160 (4K) at 30 fps.

Nokia designed this phone with an amazing 5.3-inches screen, and a 1440 x 2560 (Quad HD / 2K) resolution, making everything look perfect.

This phone comes with an inmense 3090 mAh Li - Ion non-removable battery that can keep it running for several hours and even reach the end of the day without having to charge it. An issue to evaluate is that this device's battery is not replaceable so you can't change it when it begins losing capacity, whereas with this big battery you will probably replace this phone before it happens.

This phone counts with WiFi connection (and it can share it with other devices around, acting as a router), LTE-A (4G) , a really fast internet connection and also HSPA+ connection type (a lower speed 4G variation) and fast 3G connectivity, supported by HSDPA and HSUPA technologies. The Nokia 8 uses a Nano SIM card to connect to GSM networks.

This phone also includes many cool features like Fingerprint unlock, NFC (to trigger actions, transfer data or make payments by holding your cellphone close to another NFC device or tag), Bluetooth (5.0 ) and GPS, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Barometer and Compass.

This cellphone costs around 449 dollars, not a really offer for a phone this level. It doesn't matter whether you need it for work, want this cellphone for playing games, are an amateur photographer or are looking for a social cellphone, you will definitely love this device. When buying this phone you will also receive Data cable, Headset, Quick Start Guide, Charger and SIM door key .
