HMD Global officially launched one of its newest flagship smartphones
for the year, the Nokia 8, in the Philippines and tech-savvy customers may now
avail of the new device at retail and online stores nationwide.
Introduced worldwide on August, Nokia 8 is a selfie-centric smartphone
whose camera system is incorporated with Carl Zeiss optic lenses. Its dual rear
cameras allow you to capture images in color or even in black and white while
its front camera can make you capture an image, video and even live streaming
in a single frame resulting to the term "bothie".
Here are the specifications of the Nokia 8:
- Android 7.1.1 Nougat OS
- Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 octa core processor
- Adreno 540 graphics
- 5.3-inch Quad HD IPS capacitive multitouch display
- Corning Gorilla Glass 5
- 4 GB of RAM
- 64 GB of internal storage
- Expandable memory up to 256 GB via micro SD card

laser autofocus, optical image stabilization and dual LED flash

choice that can best suit your own needs.
