      Crazy-cupcakes-2017, 06 Nov 2018Will we have to reset after installing Pie?? I do not know for the moment. I updated my girls nokia 6.1 to pie and everything was pretty darn fast, it has a small glitch at the battery software, but i do not know if the problem hangs at the code or is a glitch after installing, so i will let it like this and see what the next update brings. The device got faster tough and more stable. I will keep people here in touch if i notice something that should not be there after the update and if helps when i reset it.

      P.s Glance is actually a more then 8 years old future that was to be found in Lumia devices, so it's behaviour has nothing to do with the ips but just with the innovation behind it. A thing samsung actually copied and called it always on. Or maybe they did not copy the future, after all samsung pais nokia for patents, this might be one of them. Also, refocus after a picture was taken is also a nokia innovation, also old and also on lumia devices. Actually lumia devices were full of innovation. First OiS devices, first camera (lumia920) that was actually able to shut pictures in the dark, nokia 1020 followed with a huge sensor and OIS, that was the second on nokia devices (pureview 808 was the first). Even the 2.5d curved display was first to be found, and for a lot of years to come only on Nokia devices. A small detail but such a big difference, class written allover. Nokia has a pletora of innovations, if interested, do some researches, there is a lot of inteligence behind Nokia name.

The thing is amoleds drain only a small amount of battery for this. Nokia has a way around it. It's called Glance in Nokia phones (for a reason). It turns on only when the phone detects some movement like for example, when you pick up your phone from a desk. And it uses data from light sensor / proximity sensor to asswwith this process. At complete dark places (like when inside a pocket) Glance won't turn on even if the phone detects movement.

Think about the fact that pixel 3 has the guts of this device besides display amoled vs ips and cpu. But costs 3 times more, while the build quality is 3 times less. As for the camera. Well, is a good camera, not great. But with the pie update can be better, we'll see. Battery, for me is great. After almost an year, the battery is the same. 1 day of medium usage, 2 days of messages and small stuff. 10 hours of constant usage. 4 to 5 Hours of heavy gaming. Something i do not really do. What i adcise you and anyone buying this device. When it comes new if it wasn'z updated to android 8. There will be a lot of updates plus haeavy updates comming your way. So first, charge it without sim or anything that might consume to much battery while in the process. Wifi, data and so on. After full charge do the updates, there will be MANY, after the last update factory reset the device, trust me, will help a lot against glitches that might occur after the list of updates that installs.

                  So plz help me with your honest opinion(users of nokia 8)

                    How can this phone have always-on display on an IPS LCD screen?

                    I had the impression that always-on display only works on OLED displays.

                      Hi all,
                      - Does anyone updates to android 9? Could you evaluate battery after update, thank you !

                            Camera software on Nokia 8

                            The last month I've compared the stock camera app with the Google Camera app (GCam-5.1.018-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V8.3b1.apk).

                            What I've noticed it's the very good quality photos and videos taken with te Arnova version of GCam so I will recommended to all Nokia 8 owners to get and use this camera software, until HMD founds the software problem and addresses it properly.

                                      Anyone else find it strange that the colour only camera takes pretty much the same picture as the dual camera? Is Nokia conning us by saying that the two work together? Or is the software not doing its job?

                                        Good Day guys,
                                        I am using this phone from the last two months and i will not hesitate to recommend it to anyone.
                                        1) Display is excellent with deep blacks for an LCD
                                        2) Battery life is very good. Lasts whole day with moderate use
                                        3) Performance is excellent. I switched from Galaxy S8. and after using two months, S8 was slow as hell. Nokia 8 is still very snappy
                                        4) The copper cooling pipe gets its job done and the phone remains cool even in high pressure (like 3d games, GPS)
                                        5) Charging times are very good too.
                                        6) Camera in day light is on par with other phones and in low light the quality gets compromised a little but thats not the point which should keep you away from buying
                                        7) Nokia ozo audio is out of this world. Very crisp audio is recorded
                                        8) Video quality is average. Its not good though
                                        9) Build quality is stunning. You get metal body which feels quite good in hand.
                                        10) Timely updates are also another reason to go for this phone. Android 9 Pie is expected next month.
                                        11) Last, the price is too good. Overall its excellent value for money

                                        Keep it up Nokia (HMD)
