Intro

Nokia 8 Review

The Nokia 8 was launched by HMD Global in Malaysia. It is the flagship Android device that everyone has been waiting for. It is the big come back for the brand itself since the smartphone wave took them out almost a decade ago.

I spent 2 weeks with the phone as my daily driver and here’s why I think Nokia is making a big come back.
