Bought it for 330 Euro in january and have not regretted it one single day. It is fast, always up to date, not too big and with the back.rider GCam Mod (or with Arnova), the camera is fine. I do not mind the slightly blueish tint at the corners of the display.
I can imagine this is a display that gets scratches quite easily, as Gorilla Glass 5 is softer than e.g. Gorilla Glass 3. I bought a screen protector in Germany that is probably the same as the one from Alienexpress, at least it looks the same. I tried different types of protectors and this on was the only that worked. Also, with the display going over the edges, you have to be very careful dropping it, no case will protect it if it hits the bottom with the edges first.

Thanks. My phone used to have a film protector on the display, but I removed it because it was a bit sticky which is quite annoying when swiping text and it also gave a yellowish hue on the display. I love the film protector on the back though, because my phone now sticks to my hand when holding it without cover.
I'll try it anyway on the front because these tempered glass protectors suck for a curved screen...
This will definitely be my last phone with a curved screen!!

Mine is 5 months old now and not a single issue so far. This is a great phone. Anybody who takes it in their palm, they love it. P.s. just a few more days to august update & 4-5 months until the next Android release. At 300€ this is incredible value for money.

TWO Comments:-
1) The Gollila-5 glass will crack it it has hit a sharp edge on falling. A normal fall would not even scratch it.
2) You should use the hydrogel screen guarg, which is available on AliExpress.com:-

ps last week the phone slipped out of my hand, just 20 cm. above the bricks and it cracked the screen in the bottom corner... That was with a casing that extends on top and bottom above the screen area.
So, now with a Nalia tempered glass screen protector because the crack in the screen was really annoying to touch, but the fit in the curved corners is not perfect which often gives problem when trying to touch something in the corners. I've also read mixed reviews on the Panzerglass tempered screen protectors, so is there any other tempered glass screen protector available for the Nokia 8 Sirocco?

Bought it, and within one month screen got crashed. Very sensitive device.
Speed is good, no hanging, camera moderate, quick charging working as well.
Camera app of (pre-installed) shows now as not supported, I had a chat with Nokia support and they said we are working on it and it will get ready soon with next update. But so far it remains as same. My rating overall 2/5.

I bought a second-hand Nokia 8 Sirocco last Month for EUR 250 which I considered to be a steal. The first owner had it for 5 Months only but it was hardly used by him. Already got the June 2019 security update and just now the July security update is installing (Netherlands unlocked). I've got back.rider's gcam port which also makes it an excellent camera phone. Only downside are the overly-saturated OLED screen colours without any possibilities to adjust the saturation.
I was considering the Samsung S10e (too expensive and Samsung's OneUI is meh), Samsung Galaxy A40 (mid-range phone and Samsung's OneUI is meh), Nokia 7.1 (mid-range phone and too tall) but the Nokia 8 Sirocco checked all my boxes apart from SD-card support and dual SIM which is only nice to have for me.
I got a cheap thin black TPU case from aliexpress (covering also the sharp edges including the buttons) and the phone now just resembles my old love: black Nokia Lumia 920!
Last week I had accidentally thrown the phone pretty hard on the laminate flooring, and there was no dent, scratch or any other damage to the phone; testament to the Nokia built quality! :)

This phone is absolutely worth to buy. It is underrated in the media. I could easily upgrade the Nokia 8 Sirocco to Android 9. Compare to the other smartphone with same storage space the screen resolution is way better. I will recommend this phone easily.

It's all about personal preferences, but for me this smartphone is a masterpiece: it is very snappy with great battery life and it lies very comfortable in one hand. I like its glossy look and classic aspect ratio. Using Nokia 8 Sirocco is a pleasure.

By far the best Nokia ever produced to date. It's decent and we'll built. Worth every penny especially now that the price has dropped. I bought mine last month and I am super happy with my decision to pick it up against unfouvarable reviews.

This phone is great. Wondering why reviews are so critical. I bought it a month ago and I am still in love with it. If anyone is considering buying it, please do, you won't regret it especially now when it's pricing has dropped significantly.

It is gorgeously designed, perfect size, rich user experience and just the best money I've spent ever on a device. Its even better than my iPhone X.
