Additional problems I'm currently facing:
- When you have a static image on screen for several minutes an then you change it, you can see the remaining traces from the previous image. Sometimes it's pink, especially on a black background. Pretty common problem with matrix among these devices as I found out on other forums.
- Overheating for no reason.
- Lags, freezes, camera stops working.

I've also encountered a problem with random reboots which is related to the battery. So it seems that it's not that simple to replace it with a new one without breaking the screen... And yes, the price for that is really high! A real disappointment right now... I think I'm gonna buy a new one.. I've been a longtime fan of Nokia, but I guess I'm losing my faith in it...

This phone is very bad. I change the battery with original in authorize service centre.. TWICE. Yet the restart problem come again after several months. I never buy Nokia phone again.
The cost of battery also ridiculous. I can buy low end android phone with that price. But i'm in love badly with Nokia. I need to wake up and leave all good things with good old Nokia behind :'(

Phone has been good for trips to US, Japan, but battery is now knackered - only holds charge for a couple of hours. Pity the battery is such a pain to replace, as phone is fine apart from that.

Have this phone now for three years and still going strong, screen still looks like new and didn't put a screen protector on. No issues with battery, performance,, still working like the day I bought it. Dropped it a few times. Charger still like new. Very durable phone.

The condition of the phone is almost like new so I don't suspect there is anything wrong with it, and I already know the blue tint is normal from multiple reviews and user comments I read about the matter.
I think I'm just very sensitive to noticing the ghosting. It only happens when you scroll on a dark background, whereas if you scroll on a white background then the response times are perfect. I tested the same scenarios on an iPhone XR and it's definitely better on that phone IMO.
But since I bought the phone for £65 I can easily sell it and get 100% of my money back in return, so there's no loss. It was nice to try the Nokia as an experiment at least.

Minu, 06 May 2021hi again, how was ur experience with the nokia 8?Hi man! Oh, yeah about the Nokia... I guess you were hoping for a positive answer but to be honest with you, it's just been stuffed in a drawer ever since I bought it, lol. Because the display just doesn't seem quite as responsive as my ZUK phone, on the Nokia I can see slight ghosting trials when scrolling on a dark background, it is too distracting for me to live with. And I still find the colour temperature overly blue-ish.
Anyway, I went to the store and tried iPhone XR, I was really pleased with the display, the resolution is slightly low (326ppi) but colours are perfectly calibrated and accurate, not too oversaturated, and there are zero traces of ghosting. So I probably just switch to iOS at this point, maybe it will be fun (something different after 8 years of Android) and I can return to Android when something more suitable comes onto the market. And I'll always keep my Lenovo ZUK Z2 as a secondary phone anyway.
