Nokia 8 has today the specifications and release date revealed by sources close to HMD Global, who had the opportunity to use the new smartphone. The Nokia 8 is going to be a premium smartphone, not a mid-range one, as suggested by a series of rumors that appeared recently about the product that will be launched under the Nokia brand, but not by the well-known Finnish company.
Nokia 8 has the code name TA-1004 within the HMD Global company, and this terminal would actually be the Nokia 9 that we have heard about so many times. According to those who have obtained the information regarding its technical specifications, the Nokia 8 is going to be the most powerful and well-equipped smartphone ever released under the Nokia brand.
The Nokia 8 is going to have a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 chip, which is exactly what the most powerful Android smartphones have at the moment. The processors from this chip used in the Nokia 8 are to be clocked at a frequency of 2.45 GHz, and according to performance tests, this would give it the best performance among all the smartphones released so far on the market.
Nokia 8 - specifications and release date revealed
The Nokia 8 will initially be launched exclusively in Europe by the Nokia company, but only in a version that will have 4 GB of RAM, so multitasking could suffer. Nokia 8 is going to be available with 64 GB of storage space to begin with, and for those who need a dual SIM phone, well there is good news because Nokiar has decided to develop it with this type of support.
The Nokia 8 will have a 5.7-inch diagonal screen with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels, but it will not cover the entire front panel, as happens with other premium Android terminals. Nokia 8 will be released in versions with at least 4 colors, so there will be enough options for those who are looking for a premium smartphone that also looks good.
"The Nokia 8 TA-1004 is equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 Octacore-SoC. Qualcomm's eight-core chip achieves maximum clock speeds of up to 2.45 GHz with its four high-end cores. The Nokia 8 TA-1004 is not cheap. In Scandinavia, for example, prices below the 600 euro mark are to be expected, compared to 589 euros."
Nokia 8 will be sold by HMD Global at prices starting from 600 euros, so it will not be as expensive as iPhone 7 or Samsung Galaxy S8. That could give the Nokia 8 terminal a huge advantage over competitors and could generate quite generous sales for a company that is now at the beginning of the road in the smartphone world.
Nokia 8 will be launched by HMD Global on July 31, so almost 2 weeks separate us from its presentation.
