User opinions and reviews

I've had this phone since 12/2021. The biggest thing with Nokia's is the charging port degrades very quickly. Mine has not charged for a couple of days now. This will put me off of Nokia's in the future. It can be slow sometimes, but the battery does last all day if you observe some guidelines like keeping gps off unless needed, turning off wifi if you dont need it and keeping the screen just bright enough. Android 12 does have a save battery feature BTW. Mostly Android 12 looks horrible. Also, I've had to start rebooting this phone almost every day. Strange things start to happen if you don't, like the ringer not working or mobile data dropping to 0. I was thinking of a Motorola but they aren't known for having good speakers, and I need to hear and be heard. I will probably get a Samsung a53. I need a reliable phone.

Final verdict: avoid Nokia

    Just awesome

      This has to be 1 of their best devices in a long time, besides the Nokia 8 Sirocco and the Nokia 7 Plus, this was the next best, but seeing the time frame between those 3 releases, and what's currently in the market, makes 1 wonder, will HMD ever make another Nokia flagship or even anything close to it? Unfortuntely i had endless software issues with my 8.3, had it booked in 5 times over a period of about 10 months, and now they decide to replace my 8.3 with the Nokia X20, major downgrade, and to top that off, had to send the X20 in aswell for an OBF under 15 hours of receiving the new device. Currently using my Nokia 7 Plus to post this, had this device since 2018, and to date, no issues at all with this. HMD needs to step up, and big time, 1 would think after getting back into the game after all these years, they would want that redemption that badly. Just watched a flashback review few days ago by Will from here GSM on the Nokia 808, daaam man, that is what Nokia was all about once upon a time.

          I confirm receiving July security updates for my Nokia 8.3 here in Saudi Arabia.
          I hope the rest of you will get it soon.

              This is the best phone I have had in a long time. I have kept it as my daily driver for 2 years. It's robust, internet speed is excellent. I do get 5G almost anywhere. I received a 2gb Android 12 update. I have the June security update. The camera is great for the price and sometimes takes better shots than current flagships. The only problem is that Nokia gave us a feel of an all-rounded phone at a great price but has not released anything better for the past 2 years. The 8.3 challenged many flagships. Will nokia release anything better, soon?

                  The phone is awaresom. But the earphone is not media friendly only for making calls. Please look for NOKIA 8 SIROKO and build such earphones for coming products. I bought it in Nigeria Lagos. Please Nokia improve on your earphones attached to phone. I like wired - earphones . Android 12 is running fine. Earphones should be superb in coming product. Thanks

                                  Nokia its time to start produce brands with bigger internal storage and good cameras to compete with your rivals. I love Nokia but the problem is storage and good camera try to fix that problem.

                                    Carol is right many people compare many Chinese phone brands to nokia brands please stop that habit. I bought Nokia 8 3 years back but it still works well before this phone I used to have Tecno it lasted for only 8 months. The problem with nokia is, we miss some of your high end phones in some countries like Nokia 8.35g, Xr20,X20. Please try to put some Nokia stores in some countries like my home country Uganda because I struggled to buy Nokia 8 it was shipped from United states now I want Nokia 8.35g what can I do?

                                        I can't accepted big base in the bottom screen for name company this is idea must be place in trash , nokia focus in useless thing , i miss nokia old version only focused quality and experience consumers and revolutionary ideas , now infinix better than nokia

                                        How phone in high mid range price 500$ , just have charge 18 Watt and LCD screen without high refresh rate and storage started from 64GB with 6GB to 128GB with 8GB ?

                                        Too much for weak specification , should be in range between 220$ - 300$ this is opinion , with my respect to specification camera and processer
