    Nokia 7 Plus a mediocre device

    What do you think makes it 'mediocre'? It looks pretty darned good to me. The only negatives I could come up with are these: Slower CPU (~15% slower than a SD835) Not waterproof No wireless charging Single speaker No optical image stabilization Am I overlooking any other negatives?

    Nokia 7 Plus - the almost-flagship with a mid-range price

    I just noticed, looks like this one doesn't have OIS. That's one of the things that made night time imaging on the ole' Lumia 1020 so amazing.

    Nokia 7 Plus - the almost-flagship with a mid-range price

    If it ends up coming to the USA and if the camera turns out to be excellent then it's definitely one of the few contenders. Minimum requirements for me: - great camera - 128GB storage OR microSD expansion - clean and secure OS with 'all the apps', so either iOS or pure android - headphone...

    How to add a new phone model to the Nokia forum sections

    It would be great if the Nokia could get a dedicated section for the just announced Nokia 7 Plus. What's the best way to request that? Hopefully here. Same for the other announced models: the Nokia 8 Sirocco, and the Nokia 1. Also, it would be nice if the Nokia forum could get a subforum for...

    Pictures taken with your Nokia 8.

    That looks outstanding for nighttime video. Couldn't really appreciate the audio with all the wind noise, but I was already impressed with the brief concert recording that I posted about earlier. Everything looks pretty good on this device, I'll give it good look if I lose/destroy my iPhone 6S+...

    Nokia 8 now £399 at Carphone Warehouse

    Nice. Same pricing on Amazon at the moment: $520 USD, which is basically the straight GBP to USD conversion. Good deal!

    Pictures taken with your Nokia 8.

    These are all really great! Why did I get the impression that the camera on the N8 sucked?! I appreciate the sunset (sunrise?) shots in the first post. Very little graininess in the blue sky. On my aging iPhone 6S+ there is a lot of noise in pics of the evening sky, way more than in my old...

    Buyers Remorse. Anyone starting to get it?

    Seeing the latest photo and video samples I'm getting non-buyer's remorse.. :eek:

    Pixel 2 Camera is phenomenal

    Re: Pixel 2 Camera is phenominal That video is insanely good, wow. My laptop only does 1080p, but even at that resolution everything looks absolutely amazing. Impressive! Darn it, WHYYY did they have to remove the headphone jack.

    What In The World Is Google Doing? (Headphone Jack, Pixel 2, Again)

    Another one: I was pretty excited about the Pixel 2 XL, but the pricing and the lack of a headphone jack are disappointing. I'm kind of stuck. I want a great camera experience, either pure Android with fast updates or iOS, and I want a 3.5mm headphone jack. So that leaves.. Nokia? But the...
