The Nokia 8 Android smartphone has been the subject of numerous speculations and anticipations in recent months. HMD Global is expected to unveil the handset later this month. However, the smartphone’s new batch of leaks has surfaced online, which seems to provide every detail.
One of the most significant new information about the upcoming flagship mobile device is that it will come along with a 13MP front camera. Phone Arena reported that as the device seems to be the tech company’s first major attempt of rolling out a flagship Nokia handset, it will come with a 13MP dual camera, and it will be equipped with Carl Zeiss lenses.
Smartphone’s powerful processor
According to Android Headlines, the new leak of the Nokia 8, provided by Slash Leaks, showed that the smartphone will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 835 system-on-chip (SoC) and the Adreno 540 GPU. The smartphone will sport a QHD display panel with 2,560 x 1,440-pixel resolution, protected by a Corning Gorilla Glass 5.
Expected storage size of the device
However, there was no information provided regarding the storage size of the device. But, the flagship Android smartphone is anticipated to feature a 64GB of internal storage, which could be expandable by up to 256GB via a microSD card slot.
The Finnish tech company did not confirm the screen size yet, but the display of the handset is listed with a pixel density of 559ppi.
