Nokia 8 - user opinions and reviews

The only thing wrong with this phone was the camera specs. I know this was nokia's first flagship and for most of their first generation of phones they played it safe but a 2.0 aperture with 1.12 pixels isn't flagship. Only a year later the 7 plus has 1.8 aperture and 1.4 pixel sensor. The 8 was way more expensive than the 7 plus, but granted at that stage they hadn't made alot of money yet and their sourcing of better parts was just beginning.

Snapdragon 835, fast updates, clean android and a price of 320 euro. I think it's one if not the best option for now.

Best phone I have owned, long battery life good update plan by Nokia/HMD, and best of all cheap since Nokia released the Sirocco even thought it really isn't £500 better than the standard Nokia 8, noticed the UK prices have just dropped to £260 in the high street so they are a bargin, you cannot find a better phone for the price

No auto updates on, no apps running behind.. everything is fine... As someone suggested.. I tried even connecting to WiFi same issue. No liquid damage or any other damage as tested from service. Center. Can't figure out.. :( why it drains so fast.. rest everything is fine in my device...

Well, i uninstalled, till this morning was still showing up in store, then showd, not compatible with my device, then it was gone from updates list. Most probably, another error by HMD with the camera update.

Rave, 28 Aug 2018If you prefer design go for Honor play.If you prefer stock Android go for NokiaHonor play is the better choice.
I buyed nokia 8 and believe me this was my biggest mistake. Only the good thing about nokia 8 is stock android and snapdragon 835. Take a suggestion that don't buy this phone.

I take it that Android Pie is the last major update that this will receive now? Nokia 7 plus will get Android Q however.

JDanny, 04 Sep 2018Hi! Does it have aptx or aptx HD support after latest updates? ThanksDidn't mean to reply direct to you with the HDR+ comment...
Reference AptX, no, the latest update does not support it. It does support AAC which to my uneducated ears sounds more than fine with my AKG Y50BT headphones and Spotify on extreme quality. YMMV.
