HMD Global has started sending out invites for a mystery event on August 16 in London to “unveil the next milestone for Nokia phones,” and it seems safe to say that this is where the Nokia 8 will officially debut. The Nokia 3, 5, and 6 turned out to be pretty solid devices despite being budget phones, so a lot of eyes are on the Nokia 8, which represents HMD’s first attempt at premium handsets under the classic brand.



Unfortunately, not a lot has been left to the imagination when it comes to this particular handset. Thanks to numerous leaks, we already know that the Nokia 8 will come with the flagship Qualcomm chipset – the Snapdragon 835. The device will also feature a Zeiss-branded dual-camera on the back, with both sensors tipped to be 13 MP. In terms of RAM, it’s expected to ship with either 4 GB or 6 GB. You can expect the Nokia 8 price to see a significant bump from the Nokia 6’s bargain basement $229 too.
