The Nokia 8800 used to be the flagship of the company. During the time of its launch, it was one of the most luxurious phones around. It has a matt steel body with quality display and camera. It was also one of the most expensive phones around.
Nokia’s 8-series is its luxury line. The 8800 is designed for businessmen, celebrities, or people who yearn for good style. You can immediately come to that conclusion as soon as you see its packaging, which is a black boxboard with a metallic clasp with 8800 engraved on it. Once the box is opened, you see two sections, one for the phone and the other for the user manual and the accessories. These include the battery, stand, charger, and headphones.
The Nokia 8800 is heavy, due to its steel body. As a result, its weight ballooned to 134 grams. But this is compensated by the small size. It is also thin at only 15mm in the narrowest places. Its sliding construction makes it look thinner.
The Nokia 8800 is designed for a specific target market. It was the leader in all aspects during the time of its release. It was worth every cent spent on it, although it did have its downsides. It doesn’t have a memory card slot, hands-free kit, and a system connector.
