Nokia 8 Sirocco: Solid Steel And A Beautiful Finnish
The Nokia 8 Sirocco might just be the surprise winner of MWC 2018 – at least as far as the buzz goes. With a stainless steel-and-glass build, Zeiss optics, Android One software and a beautiful curved display, this deluxe edition of the earlier Nokia 8 certainly lives up to the “Sirocco” suffix used on the Nokia 8800 some eleven years ago. Will a slightly older processor and a debatably high price tag sink its prospects? Tune in for the answer (and a short history lesson on Nokia vs HMD Global) in MrMobile’s Nokia 8 Sirocco Hands-On from MWC 2018!

Please make a video of drop test on Nokia 8 sirocco
I'd rather get nokia than those suspicious china brands you never know when they got your 3d scanned face.
Hey Micheal the nokia 8 Sirocco actually doesn't have OIS i wish it did though the camera would have been a lot better
No headphone jack made me skip this
It comes with 128gb memory so lack of SD card is ok
But lack of headphone jack is disappointing
Phone is gorgeous nonetheless and attracts
Nokia 8 sirocco has the front bezels of note 8 and screen has 81.2% screen to body ratio so I don't know how so many people and reviewers consider it as old design. I know that it has 16:9 ratio but nokia did well with screen to body ratio like what Huawei had did with mate 10 before which was better-looked than his brother mate 10 pro . People must be happy with this ratio because most off apps and videos are supported and the screen provides the same experience of thin bezels like note 8 without resorting to notch . The phone is really amazing and its performance is very snappy like all flagships of 2018 despite of having snapdragon 835 but nokia did a great combination to give you the best performance believe me and nokia did that because Android one program didn't support 845 chipset. People should know that numbers aren't every thing . I remember Xperia xz sony's flagship of 2016 had 3 gb ram but it was too fast and we also see pixel phones don't have the best hardware numbers and has single camera but they are the best in field of performance and photography.
I bought mine for 521€ because of discounts at fnac lol
Um…no thanks but nice review. (=
Better than Galaxy s8 or s9 and iPhone if we consider the pricing. Nokia rocks again
"A beautiful finnish" I see what you did there 😀
Good luck finding a proper case that suits your needs. One big drawback for this beauty.
One of the better names to go with one of the better looking smartphones
Nokia is now just a brand
Nokia's build quality is so strong …..look at the heading
Mein Junge, du ziehst komische Gesichter…. Irgendwas stimmt bei dir nicht.
This or nova 3
I will buy it !!! I trust Nokia !!!
That is actually my dream phone, held it in person and I'm absolutely in love
Come on, Nokia x5 and x6 video review
Nokia should have gone with MeeGo and the N9 instead of canning it while they were under the control of a mole from Microsoft who was then in charge as CEO, Stephen Elop, who re-directed Nokia away from their own platform to Windows Phone, and we all know how that turned out… The share price crashed and Microsoft picked them up for cheap, how convenient.
OVI Maps, 3rd party Apps, a beautiful design and buttonless swipe based interface all in place on the N9, truly it could have been the great alternative platform to iOS, instead it was hamstrung thrown away for Windows Lumia…
And if they'd have gone with Android, they would have stolen Samsung's lunch
If not for Stephen Elop and Microsoft we might have been looking at a very different mobile world.
Doesn't have headphone jack, it has glass back, no changeable battery cover, no removable battery. fix these things and then it is perfect!
Nokia 8 is bae❤️
Can someone tell me if Nokia 8 dual sim interrupt your data sim connection if someone call you?
review nokia 7 plus please
An Important thing is that this thing is not rediculously huge like most other smartphones
Nokia 7 Plus would probably have the better value though
Nokia 8 review please!

And it is every bit like the Nokia feel. No cheap Nokia and the fact that they went android one
Sooo crispy

Has it snake ???
Watching this on my Lumia 1020.
Love the nokia of today what great products!
please review the Nokia 7 Plus
Humble request you to review Nokia 7 plus.
Making phones with aesthetics-over usability in mind, is always a bad idea. But it's not only Nokia that's doing this.
make a video about android one. what does it lose out on compared to, galaxy or pixel
Will it work on Verizon?
I would never have left Nokia if they had gone Android back in the day… My HTC Desire was my first affair, and I have wished I could have avoided it ever since…
Will I buy this if it costs $759 here?
Unfortunately it's too small for me.
I don't consider anything under 6 inches.
Perhaps a Plus verion will grace our hands.
One hell of a job sir. Been following you for years. You never fail to impress.
will u plzz do a review of nokia 7+?
Review the Nokia 7 plus 🙂
not buying mobile now…but my next device will be either nokia or blackberry
Nokia means Quality, Antic, Style and more more more……
You have a great voice!
I might buy a nokia now because of android one
