How's the battery life of 7 Plus?
I've asked 2 happy Nokia 7+ users and both are reporting insane battery life of like 9 hours of SOT on a single charge because of the SD660 chipset. They still get great performance and even better battery life.

That's amazing! Now one thing that's making confusion is the prices of Nokia 8 and 7 Plus :D

Nokia 8 at 32,000 and Nokia 7 Plus at 33,500. The flagship phone is prices lower than the mid range phone. :laugh1: I'm being greedy here. :laugh1:

Nokia 8 was last year's Nokia's flagship device, this year its "Nokia 8 Sirocco" which is much more expensive then this year's Nokia med ranger Nokia 7 Plus.

Well you're right about that as well but comparatively, Nokia 7 Plus is more attractive.

Cheapest 835 option available is Verizon Z2 force only kit, for 27-28k. Boring design aside Nokia 8 is very sturdy phone.

Only if Nokia 7 plus was in 28k range I am not sure about pricing strategy

i couldn't agree more, i already ordered one from ishoping just today afternoon, for about 33,699 with shipping charges. it is simply best bang for buck, i also seen a lot positive and highly recomended reviews of it on internet, like GSMArena, PhoneArena, Android Authroity, Engadget etc

Pricing Strategy is perfect for Nokia, have a look at overrated and overpriced devices like Vivo V7 and Oppo F7 (Iphone-X Ripoff) and Huawei P20 lite, Pricing is excellent for Nokia 7 Plus and Nokia 6.1, considering the Build quality and Stock Android experience.

bro I've used nokia 808 and there is nothing in android which has matched its result. If 7+ is even closer, will buy it :)

Nokia 7+ is a very good phone but do remember that it has not a very strong chipset, do consider htc U11 as well

bro, howz the camera? have you used it personally???
If you are asking about U11, then, I have never owned one but I was very very close for buying it, I had cash in my hand and 2 phones in front of me htc 10 and htc u11, I was literally shocked how beautiful htc u11 was and how powerful was the stereo on it such that I never heard anything close to it (considering it a phone) in my entire life, but still I went for htc u11 because I am a bit paranoid about glass phones.
Let me make this simple for you:
Htc U11 top notch everything, powerful chipset, stereo, very nice display, no headphone jack (i dont care) extremely fragile phone.
Nokia 7+ extremely nice display, no glass so a bit durable, beautiful stock android, less bezzels, weak chipset I have witnessed a slight lag which is not good for new phone.
OP5T used, a very good all rounder, very futureproof, very good battery and software, screen is not as good as nokia 7+ or htc u11 to my eyes.

These are my personal observation based on experience and not on paper specs. If I were you, in 50k, I would buy a new htc u11 or a used OP5T.
I am sleepy so ignore any mistakes.

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.
