      If you like stock Android and classic design, the Nokia 8 is hard to beat.
The handset is now widely available in the UK and it packs in a raft of innovative technology and specs.
Nokia was out the game for a good long while, but it is BACK now with gusto, boasting a solid array of handsets across a variety of price points.
Unlike the current crop of Android flagships, the Nokia 8 does not cost £1000; no, this phone is priced very competitively.
Even when compared to the likes of Honor and OnePlus phones.
And you get A LOT of bang for your buck. Especially with this Nokia 8 deal which nets you the handset for ZERO upfront.
If you’re in the UK and looking at picking up a Nokia 8, you need to check this deal out:
 
  
Simple: it’s cheap.
Yes, the data isn’t great – but that’s basically what you pay for these days.
Bottomline: you’re getting a decent phone with great specs and features, as well as a very good camera, for no cost upfront and a monthly outlay of £22.
Not too shabby, even more so when you consider you’d pay triple that for Apple’s iPhone X.
You also get unlimited calls and texts, which, again, is pretty solid.
Here’s a quick breakdown of the Nokia 8’s key specs and features:
 
  SIM-free, the Nokia 8 retails for around £296.99 – so for £22 a month, this deal is pretty darn sweet if you can’t stomach that much cash outright.
I know I couldn’t!
It also runs stock Android and will get Android updates in a timely fashion.
Nokia has been one of the best Android phone makers in this regard since its return to the space.
 
  Beyond this, the Nokia 8 is a handsome piece of kit that packs in plenty of power and a truly brilliant camera.
If you fancy something different, maybe it’s time you went back to the phone brand that started it all!
Here’s that deal again:
