I'm quite fond of recent Nokia phones. In my opinion they have the best price-to-camera ratio (Nokia 7 Plus for example).

Now considering to buy 8.1. In my country the 8.1 pre-order price is about the same as current price for 8 Sirocco (about 420 EUR). What do you guys think, which of them is better? Especially from camera perspective.

Ps. GSMarena, when will the 8.1 review be available?

          Video playback in hdr looks better in Nokia 7.1 as compared to 8.1 but when it comes to camera 8.1 is far more better... except hdr playback, i love everything in this phone...Battery optimization is nice(battery backup) and phone gets quick charge 50% in 25 min... Build quality is premium....but front camera is not upto mark that i was expecting...selfies are not so colourful but are very detailed...

Nokia 8 is my first device with lcd since more then 8 years now. Battery is greater then any amoled i have ever owned, you wanna know why? Cause amoled is useless in a system with 70% white menus. Lcd has come a really long road and i heavily tend to think they actually got better then amoled. Bright and saturated colors, deep blacks and hey, less battery consumption and no burn-in. Believe me, no matter what others say, amoleds burn In!

                Nokia never sold at lowest prices and never gave a bad product. Only that they got stuck with with their OS and a bad leadership, they lost out. NOKIA is still a huge brand. HMD is lead by people who were in Nokia only. If NOKIA lends its brand to HMD , it has done consciously. I wont be surprised, if HMD goes back to NOKIA lap after a few years.
                I have not using a Nokia, but my next phone will probably be a NOKIA. It will surely not be a Xiaomi. A brand has its value. And a Nokia will be a bit overpriced to retain its worth.
                Nokia has been one of the fastest launchers in 2018 and will be so 2019 is my guess.
                Also, Nokia has kept themselves in news continuously. This is good marketing.

It said December security patch was included with Android 9.0. My X7 also updated to 8.1 as soon as I turned it on the first time out of the box.

                        Specifications have an error: I own an X7 and it DOES have an FM tuner. Works great. Tuner app is very good too.

                          Nokia is getting so close with their phones. The only things that are missing with this phone is an oled display, and maybe branded 32 bit audio like what LG does. That, and getting rid of the notch.

                                  I have the Nokia X7. The other day I received notification on Android Pie update. I skipped it for the time. Now I want to update, but when I check in the Settings, it says my phone is up to date, no update available. Any recommendation is appreciated.
