Nokia 8 set to take the Saudi market by storm

HMD Global, the home of Nokia phones, has introduced the Nokia 8 to fans across Saudi Arabia, following the successful global launch of the smartphone. Through a roadshow that will cover Riyadh, Jeddah and Dammam, HMD’s senior regional team will be meeting local distributors and retailers from across the Kingdom to highlight the phone’s unique capabilities and to reinforce HMD’s commitment to the Saudi market.

Nokia 8 brings its Saudi fans three world-firsts in an Android smartphone: a collaboration with ZEISS optics, Dual-Sight livestreaming and Nokia OZO Audio. With performance and pure Android at its heart, as well as the most advanced aluminium unibody design to date, the Nokia 8 aims to attract the Saudi content creators who love taking and sharing photos and videos. HMD believes everyone deserves access to the most useful, dependable, and future-proof phones.

Sanmeet Kochhar, General Manager, Middle East, at HMD Global, said: “The KSA is one of the countries with the highest consumption of video content across mobile, with 87% of Saudis watching online video content on their smartphones[i]. With the Nokia 8, we are delighted to introduce technologies that go hand in hand with the Saudi consumer’s desire for content creation and sharing. We are dedicated to providing them an innovative and unique experience through this flagship smartphone with premium technology at an accessible price.”

The Nokia 8 introduces a world-first in enabling Dual-Sight video to be livestreamed natively and in real-time to social feeds such as Facebook and YouTube. Dual-Sight simultaneously harnesses both the front and rear cameras in a split screen visual for both photos and videos, to capture a #Bothie. The front and rear-facing cameras on the Nokia 8 have been co-developed with ZEISS optics for an optimum all round experience.

Nokia 8 is also the first smartphone to feature Nokia OZO Audio, bringing a fully immersive audio experience to 4K video. Leading-edge 360° audio capture ensures the playback lets you truly relive the moment so your memories never fade.

The Nokia 8’s seamless unibody is precision milled from a single block of 6000 series aluminium and its pure design has been refined through a 40-stage process of machining, anodizing and polishing. The phone features Qualcomm’s powerful SnapdragonTM 835 Mobile Platform and paired with the pure, secure and up to date Android experience ensures outstanding performance.

The pure Android experience means there are no unnecessary apps slowing down the performance of the device, while the monthly security updates keep the Nokia 8 safe and up-to-date. The device is also secured with biometric fingerprint authentication, delivering enhanced security and making Nokia 8 a versatile companion whatever your needs.

The Nokia 8 has been designed from the ground up with the consumer in mind to deliver unique content capture and sharing experiences. This requires it to be as meticulously designed on the inside as it is on the outside. To keep the phone working harder for longer, the design, innovation and engineering teams worked hand-in-hand to deliver. The result is a full-length graphite shielded copper cooling pipe that dissipates the heat generated by the high performing system across the full length and breadth of the handset. The Nokia 8 runs cooler in even the most demanding situations.

Nokia 8 is available in KSA across major retailers in four colours: Polished Blue, Polished Copper, Tempered Blue and Steel, at an average retail price of SAR 1,699.
