Always on display, does it mean nokia 8 has no notification led?
jptr, 02 Feb 2019is this okay in 2019?Why not? Is up to date with everything and there are devices that pup up at this price with way less conoetitive CPU. The only "problem" would be the design that apperenty is outdated, whatever that means. I actually find it great.
XAn4ETO, 01 Feb 2019TA - 1004Thanks.
I guess I should not be too worried about updating to Pie then. Hopefully other bugs will be squashed as we get pie part 2.
Mike, 31 Jan 2019Thanks a lot.
Installed Pixel 3 Gcam. Works well. But now no big difference (of Gcam's Night ... moreNo i do not have to install GCam 3 every time I use it.
Did you use the "Night Sight" mode when taking photos in the dark? It captures a lot more light than the normal camera (i think).
In good light Nokia camera looks much similar to the GCam unless you zoom in to see the small details in the photo.
(above observations are my personal opinions: I'm no expert in photography and to be honest i don't use the camera that much xD)
is this okay in 2019?

Android, 30 Jan 2019I would go for Nokia 8 but it depends on your preferences. Nokia 8 is the perfect all rounder ... moreThanks so much for your detailed reply!
Reknilador, 29 Jan 2019Would you guys recommend Nokia 8 or Pocophone ? I like Nokia's 5.3 inch size a lot i think it'... moreI have used Locophone f1 for about an month, and I'm now using Nokia 8. My opinion, go with Nokia 8. Pixel density and brightness is way better on Nokia. It's display in general is better. Poco does have sd845 but that doesn't make any difference in daily usage, or even in gaming. Cameras are same, wifi strength same, and basically everything other is same. But huge difference is in looks. Nokia 8 (especially polished one) looks so premium compared to the plastic poco.

Nokia 8:
Performance:
PUBG on Ultra HD, Ultra Frame Rate, Realistic Mode - literally no lag at all, not even for a moment. So you can rest assure about its performance. Many flagship phones fail to do that.
Battery:
- With 50% Brightness, PUBG lasts around 5 hours with the settings above. And 7-8 hours in other heavy online games like Identity V.
- On normal usage consisting of: (Indoor+Outdoor)
4 hours of YouTube
2 hours of PUBG
2 hours of Facebook
Messaging and calls on various apps (WhatsApp, Messenger, LINE, Instagram, Network calls)
It lasts about 1.5 days.
Built Quality:
I don't have any complaints about it nor do I see anyone else complaining, so its built quality is above satisfactory. In fact, this phone is among those with least bad reviews on Gsmarena.
- No heating issues even while PUBG in sunlight.
- No screen issues like screen bleeding.
- No GPS issues.
- Smaller screen size means it needs less power to process Graphics, which means better performance and battery.
It can last at least 3+ years, imo.
OS:
It has stock Android which rules because:
- No Ads
- No Bloatware
- Better Performance as there is no load on its Chipset from unnecessary Ads, Bloatwares and other background and foreground processes.
- Better battery for reasons stated above.
- You can customise it so you only see what you want.
- Nokia is known for providing OS updates for a lot of its phones.
Personally, I love Stock Android. It makes a huge difference in performance, so much that Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1 is one of the only phones with Snapdragon 636 that is able to run PUBG smoothly at High Graphics.
Most Xiaomi have MIUI, which means ads and unnecessary power, battery and data consumption. The optimisation they *claim* to offer doesn't makes it performance better than stock android so I don't see the point in it other than playing with customers mind. Their customer support is often criticised and device quality is as you can see in their reviews. That being said, Pocophone does have a bigger screen and better normal usage battery if that appeals to you.
