Nokia 8 Sirocco Expert Review Summary
Expert Rating:
![Prateek Pandey]()
Verdict
The Nokia 8 Sirocco is a gorgeous flagship which has been constructed with the utmost attention to the design and the aesthetics. The handset feels like a luxury in the hand, and unsurprisingly, Nokia expects buyers to pay a premium for the smartphone – a premium worth Rs 50,000, to be precise. Now, if you want your device to turn heads every time you take it out of your pocket, you should consider investing in the Nokia 8 Sirocco. For everything else though, you can get a better deal elsewhere.Performance enthusiasts can simply buy the OnePlus 5T (review) which also comes with a Snapdragon ...

The Nokia 8 Sirocco comes as the successor to the Nokia 8 (review) which was launched last year. Since the current-gen flagship is also an ode to the Nokia 8800 Sirocco which was announced over a decade ago, the company has used exotic materials in the construction of the device – and it shows. I got the jet black variant of the smartphone to review, and for any manufacturer struggling to nail the colour black, take some cues from Nokia. The handset has the finest black coating I've ever seen on a mobile device and after using it for a few weeks, I am convinced that the handset will age well, provided you don't drop it every other day. Moving on, the Nokia 8 Sirocco flaunts an all-glass design which is held together by a slim metal trim.

The Nokia 8 Sirocco ships with a dual-camera setup at the back, comprising a pair of 12MP and 13MP sensors which have been fine-tuned by German optics maker, Carl Zeiss. The handset ships with a 5MP selfie-shooter, which is a downer, especially if you're a selfie enthusiast like me. We'll talk about that in a minute, but first, let's take a closer look at the dual-camera setup at the back.

While Nokia has given its latest flagship a facelift, the smartphone still shares the same internals as its predecessor, the Nokia 8. Inside, the Nokia 8 Sirocco is backed by last year's Snapdragon 835 processor which has been aided by 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. Unfortunately, the Nokia 8 Sirocco ships with a single SIM slot and therefore, you can neither expand the storage, nor use dual-SIM connectivity with the device.
