This is a highly anticipated flagship from HMD Global, not because the Nokia 8 is unimpressive, but perhaps the latter just does not fit into the fashion of 2018. Nokia 9 PureView fixes that with an edge-to-edge (bezel-less) design.
This Nokia 8 successor ups the game with a 5.9 inches (14.99 centimetres) AMOLED screen and Android 8 Oreo out of the box. As for the rest of the specs, there does not appear to be any significant upgrades to the Nokia 8. The massive selling point of the phone is the five camera lens at the back coupled with AI image processing.
