Nokia 8 hands-on review

 

If we used the Nokia 8's Bothie mode to shoot a reaction to the phone, it would be all smiles.

Fun, creative Bothie mode ; Monochrome camera mode is excellent ; Almost pure Android ; Very fast and smooth performance ; Polished copper model is a stunner

Design is very subtle ; If you don't like Bothies, you may find the phone too modest

Nokia 8 review: Connecting the dots

 

This is it then. The long-awaited Finnish flagship that goes all in against the phones that rule today. The Finnish cameraphone returning to claim the prize that was once its birthright. Everybody bow and make way?

The Nokia 8 is fine. And that’s its biggest problem

 

The Nokia 8 is fine. And that's its biggest problem.

The Nokia 8 has two rear cameras and is packed with power. Its screen is bright and sharp.

It lacks some cutting-edge features for a high-end phone in 2017, like waterproofing and a slim, standout design.

A decent all-rounder, the dual-camera Nokia 8 gets the job done, but it doesn’t come close to today’s true Android stars.

Nokia 8 Review - NotebookReview.com

 

The Nokia 8 is another "pure" Android phone to rival Google's Pixel. Read on to see what Nokia delivers.

Impressive fit and finish, worthy of the brand ; Fantastic display contrast ; Dual Sight camera means creative streaming options ; Chipset performance among the best in the range

Dated form factor includes oversized display bezel ; Imprecise automatic focus system on the rear-facing camera ; It is not fully waterproof

Nokia 8 Smartphone Review

 

Three lenses. With the Nokia 8, HMD Global now also revives the legendary Finnish brand in the premium range. At a fair price of around 580 Euros (~$682; $565 in some US online retailers), the buyer gets a well-built and well-configured 5.3-inch...

very bright screen ; good build ; fast SoC ; pure Android 7.1.1 ; very good GPS ; decent camera ; videos recorded with surround sound ; USB 3.1 Gen.1 ; long battery life ; Quick Charge 3.0

not waterproof or dustproof ; only average Wi-Fi speed ; no Gigabit LTE ; relatively few LTE bands

The Nokia 8 scores with its superbly built aluminum casing and a very bright, 5.3-inch QHD screen. It also earns sympathy points with its high-end Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 SoC. This, alongside 4 GB of RAM and the swift Adreno 540 pixel accelerator,...

Nokia 8 Review

 

Nokia is back. It has embraced Android and it's got a Snapdragon 835 flagship phone to compete with the big guns like the iPhones, Galaxies and Pixels…

Great price ; Smooth performance ; Plentiful 64GB of internal storage ; Fast charger included in the box ; Solid battery life

Big bezels, colors not as lively as on other screens ; Camera is below average ; No water proofing ; Fingerprint is not as accurate as on other phones ; Always-on Display is hard to see, too dim

Nokia 8 review: A solid but uninspiring flagship

 

The Nokia 8 is Nokia's new flagship smartphone , joining stablemates like the revision of the classic candybar Nokia 3310 , the entry-level Nokia 3 and the mid-range Nokia 5 and Nokia 6 .

Great battery life ; Bright, high-resolution screen ; Robust build ; Stock, uncluttered Android (7) ; Dual rear cameras

No really outstanding features ; 'Bothie' idea is not compelling ; Moderate resistance to dust and water ingress (IP54)

Nokia 8 Review: An interesting flagship with room for improvement

 

HMD Global adds a high-end device to its series of smartphones with the Nokia 8. In our review, we show you how it competes against other manufacturers.

Very good battery ; Overall performance ; Dual video/livestream ; Stock Android

Poor camera ; Outdated design ; No LED notification

Overall, I enjoyed using the Nokia 8 and it is an interesting first flagship for the return of the Finnish brand. Admittedly, the design does not have the wow factor, compared to the Samsung Galaxy S8 with its infinity screen, however, I can see the...
