When Nokia phones started to hit the market I was in the university, my first phone was 3310, then i learned how to compose the polyphonic ringtones, so i was in the need to upgrade to 3330 to be able to compose the tones and send them to my friends, then a jump to the colored phones with camera that was my 7650😍 .. So as you can see, i was (and still) the technology expert  who every one seeks for his help and advice... Anyway, the 7650  didn't stay with me for long till i moved to my true love, the Panda, the 6660! In between these major movements i bought and used the following: 
8210, 6210, 6310, 6310i, 3510i, 8310, 7760...will never forget the NGage QD😍😍😍😍😍 ohh god i still remember all these phone models! 
Then a big jump to the new Symbian, with the N series  starting with the N80, N90 and N70... Then ups and downs... Windows came which i didn't like... For some years I've been so loyal and missing the Brand Nokia, I've used many phones, but that Nokia feeling was never there, until i saw the Nokia 8 announcement last year! I said it to my family and friends  Nokia is back baby! When i read the specification i knew that if I'm not getting this model  then for sure the next one is mine no doubt about that!! It would be a great honor to attend the MWC with Nokia after all these years to finally be part of the real Nokia making the future! I'm keeping my fingers crossed 

 My favorite Nokia phone moment of 2018 was:

THE NOKIA 8 SIROCCO.

What makes the moment so special:

BECAUSE ORDINARY LIFENEEDS AND EXTRAORDINARY PHONE.

I  NOKIA PHONE 

My favourite Nokia phone moment was the announcement of Android One at MWC 2018 and the "banana blue" color amazing. Google + Nokia + Zeiss + Pixelworks = Perfection, clean, detailed and simple. With the best phone announcement being the Nokia 7 plus still in my opinion the best looking and Nokia phone that has come out.

Hello everyone from snow-covered Russia! I want to share with you why my favorite smartphone 2018 is Nokia 7.1. Before that I used Nokia 8 and therefore I compare it with it. I have been using 7.1 for about a month, so I have something to tell you about this device. In appearance inconspicuous at first glance, the device, as it turned out, deserves close attention.

Display: normal IPS?!
The screen here really gives odds to many flagships due to the presence of PureDisplay HDR 10. This provides high contrast and increases the detail of the image regardless of the scenario of use, whether it is a video or social network. The work of the HDR function is so obvious that everyone who took this smartphone in hand, did not remain indifferent, noting the work of the screen.

Autonomy: small but long-lived!
Thanks to Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 processor and capacious battery of 3060 mAh, coupled with the latest version of Android PIE smartphone lives with active use of 1.5-2 days, which is a very good result for such a device. With that, I note that this result gives the smartphone constantly, for a month of use, he never turned off before. Usage scenario: 4 hours active screen on the day, social sharing, always-on Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, NFC (Google Pay).
Also often bailed out fast charging: 50% for 30 minutes, even from the Power Bank! Full charge in about 100 minutes

Design-fragile or thoughtful?
The body on the images looks ordinary, but it is only an illusion. When the device gets into the palm of your hand-you will immediately recognize the design of Nokia, which is pleasantly angular and quite firmly in the hand, like the all-metal case of Nokia 6.1. 
The body of the glass does not allow the smartphone to cool down even with a long stay in the cold. This, of course, is extremely important especially for our climate. And if the metal Nokia 8 after half an hour of use in the cold signals overcooling, the glass 7.1 even when tested for several hours in the cold at -10 degrees, had no hint of problems in the work, which can not afford Asian competitors who at -5 degrees will certainly give up.

Camera: Zeiss and Pro Cam.
The camera in this smartphone is represented by two sensors: 12+5 MP (aperture f \ 1.8 and f\2.4) with German optics Zeiss. The functionality of the 5 MP module is to collect information to determine the depth of field of the image during post-processing. Thanks to this application Nokia Camera, receiving information from two sensors, and processing them, allows you to get detailed HDR images. It is this advantage of algorithms in the proprietary application allows you to fully use the camera smartphone. Before such a powerful tool, even the artificial intelligence of the Google Camera app makes photos worse, since there is only information from one (main) module used. Below you can see a comparison with Nokia 8 (photo № 2 in each scene) in automatic mode. The difference is obvious: photos from Nokia 7.1 have a greater depth of field and clarity of the picture.

Video shooting is possible in resolution up to 4K with Nokia OZO Audio technology, which provides Studio quality sound recording when shooting video. In the case of video recording in Full HD resolution there is electronic stabilization, 4K stabilization is absent. For comparison, there is also an example video in the attachment in comparison with Nokia 8.
As for the brand application itself, it is unique.
First, there is a proprietary patented PRO mode that allows you to fine-tune the camera (shutter speed, exposure, ISO, white balance, focus) even for professional photographers. Below: 1-photo in automatic mode, 2-in professional mode.

Secondly, there are exclusive built-in functions, such as the simultaneous two-way shooting mode Nokia Bothie. Also on the spot and "live photos", which, by the way, for the first time in the world were presented in Nokia smartphones in 2013.
Third, the application has an artificial intelligence system Google Lens: just enough to point the camera lens at the object, and artificial intelligence recognizes it by offering a search on the Internet, or even the nearest place where it can be purchased.
General impression
According to the results of using the device, the impressions are extremely positive, that's why I decided to share with you why I consider 7.1 the best model 2018 from Nokia. The smartphone is perfectly balanced: the best screen in this class, a grandiose camera with a proprietary application, the latest software from Google, capacious battery, NFC (including Google Pay and "Troika"!) and truly Nokianess design-all this together makes the device the best on the market in the segment up to 20 thousand rubles.

My Nokia phone moment 2018 is the day when 8.1 is launched.A long waiting got over by putting smile on my face. No further waiting just bought it. Nokia provides  pure version of smartphones with pure android, pureview hdr display, and a excellent camera performance and to be frank they are indestructible like old Nokia phones.

I like Nokia Phone Now. 1st use Samsung device. But after that when Nokia come in market i use my 1st Nokia Phone which was Nokia 5. And now imI using Nokia 6.1. I'mvery happy to use it you can see the camera work is very owsam and bulit quality is amazing. Specially i like zeiss camera support here in this device. You can see the results of this camera. In 2018 my wish was i can use Nokia 8 sirraco. Which is flag ship device from Nokia still now in my opinion. But unfortunately its not available in Pakistan. I wish i can use this device. Nokia is doing amazing work. 2nd thing which i say to Nokia please come in Pakistan and bulit your setup here. Now device are so much expensive due to heavy taxes. Tink about it a lot of people here who loved Nokia still now.

Gald to be here.. 
Nokia is something like family. My first phone was Nokia 2690, It was such a wonderful handset for me that holding that phone in that time gave me such a unique and special feeling.
Now, after so many years in 2017 I proudly bought my First phone with my Own earned money was Nokia 5. After that so many things happened, I was soo much happy in 2018 when i received my Oreo update as promised by nokia. Nokia phones are always special for durability and performance. After that I recommend Nokia to everyone who asked for a new phone.
Now, am eagerly waiting for nokia 9.
Hope to join the event with you guys.. You rock as always!!

My favorite moment with my nokia 7 plus was when my sister told me that she preferred photos taken with my 7 plus over her OnePlus 5t

When the name you trust brings more than what you were expecting - Nokia 8 
My Nokia phone moment of 2018 was , .. I had been travelling to many places during vacation and My Nokia 7 plus never disspointed me as it had 2 days battery life i could go to any places without any tension 😊

 1) When my old device has troubled me (the battery life runs out quickly). I decided to choose Nokia X7 to replace the old device after I first saw the specifications of Nokia X7

1- There are many, but the best are
when those mobile reviewers praised the Nokia 7 plus, as the best mid range smartphone of 2018. And the other one is the design of Nokia 8 Sirocco. I never saw that much beautiful device as the Sirocco is.

2- I have been the die hard user of Nokia mobiles since 2011. When Nokia was about to leave the market that time I was using Nokia Lumia 730, I was upset that time. I used my lumia till mid 2016. One day I was randomly browsing the web, then suddenly I saw an article that Nokia is coming back in early 2017 because the contract with Microsoft would be end in 2016. That moment was the special for me.
Last February I bought the Nokia 8, since then I have been using this & waiting for next flagship. Thanks.

Last year, not long after MWC. I read an article about this phone, Nokia 8 Sirocco. And this is the first time I met Nokia brand again, after the great era of Nokia feature phone. So without hesitation, I bought this 8 Sirocco,  and it did fit the title of a Nokia flagship. My favorite moments in 2018 was everytime I proudly showed my phone to my colleagues, proudly showed the Nokia and Zeiss logos, proudly told them "This is an authentic Nokia phone. No kidding." They touched the back finish and the stainless steel edge,  and said "Yes, this feels pretty like Nokia quality." (Most of my colleagues still believed that Nokia was merged by Microsoft, since it hasn't showed up in our life for so long. ) Though this phone isn't a perfect flagship, but its durability, smoothness and deluxe feel satisfied me enough.                     Camera is awesome!!!
Indeed, bring this brand back to public's spotlight takes time, especially in such a competitive market here in China. But since it's Nokia, I have faith and I will do my part. Come on, Nokia!
