HMD Global’s Nokia 8 smartphone is now available for purchase through the e-commerce website Amazon, in line with the online channel’s Great Indian Festival sale. The smartphone will also be selling through the offline retailers including Reliance Digital, Croma, BigC among others.
The Nokia 8 was launched last month for the Indian market and comes with bundled data from Reliance Jio. The device is priced at Rs 36,999 and includes up to 100GB of additional data.
As for the specifications, the Nokia 8 is built on top of a Snapdragon 835 chipset coupled with 4GB RAM and 64GB of onboard storage. The smartphone sports a 5.3-inch QHD IPS LCD display protected by 2.5D Gorilla Glass. The smartphone is built of 6000 series aluminium, which Nokia claims to be extremely durable.
The Nokia 8’s highlight is its ZEISS camera — a 13MP wide-angle sensor with another 13MP monochrome sensor. The front camera also sports a 13MP sensor, which can help users take boathies — selfie + photo from the rear camera. The Nokia 8 also comes with OZO 360-degree spatial audio, which essentially records sounds from all sides for an immersive video experience.
The Nokia 8 is powered by a 3090mAh battery, which can be charged from a USB Type-C port. The smartphone runs on Android 7.1 Nougat, which will be upgraded to Android Oreo. The smartphone will be available in Polished Copper, Polished Blue, Tempered Blue and Steel.
