  • Can anybody please tell me does Nokia 8.1 have gorilla glass protection. If yes which version of gorilla glass.
    Obviously .
    It has gorilla glass 5.

  • I just received mine today. It is Blue-Steel colour.
    The Phone is 'Superlative'. Classy, Elegant, Beautiful etc. etc. Worth it. Works well. Didn't play any games though.
    It is slightly slippery to hold. A soft TPU cover should have been included in the box. I have ordered a Transparent back cover already.
    There is no word on free offers yet, I hope to get some info in my mail/post in coming days.
    Excellent phone.

    Is the protection specification quoted anywhere on Nokia official website?, if not then it's not trustworthy
    Absolutely.... Seems like same as 5.1 plus no protected glass bundled. Serious hardware flaw. 
  • This is the answer from Nokia chat support ,there is no Gorilla glass protection

    Thanks for the info.... Wouldn't buy it or recommend. Many features... Lot of advertisements... Lot of tweets.. hypes, but not providing a basic protection is just like throwing money in dark.

    @wyk Nokia 8.1 has gadget360' camera ratings is low as compared to Nokia 7 Plus due to sometimes over exposure problem on front camera.Nokia 7Plus has 3800mAh Battery,Full HD Display 18:9 and Not having HDR10 display So that's why it's better battery life.

    Nokia 8.1 is just having SD 710 & HDR10 comparing to 7 plus.... But still cant compromise these with corning gorilla glass. .. At least sratch protected glass. & u knw at the end of day battery matters a lot. So except those said features i would like to say it's downgrade.

    Yes I saw the video and Juho said sculpted glass but again he could have thrown a bit of light on durability of it,not that it's going to be anything cheap from them but still some information would have been good

    Hope.. It's fine.... But HMD should clear the logic behind glass protection. Practical experience always differs from video. ..& the surface not always tiles..  😆 
  • Will Nokia 8.1 have face unlock feature in coming updates.
