The Nokia 3310 reboot is expected to grab the eyeballs on Nokia's MWC 2017 event on February 26, but the flagship Nokia P1 or Nokia 8 smartphone will be the one that decides if the brand will be able to compete with flagship models from the stables of Apple, Samsung, and other major brands. While most of the key specifications of the Nokia 8 have already leaked online, the price remained unknown so far. However, a listing on JD.com has leaked the Nokia 8 price tag ahead of this week's launch.

Nokia 8 Price

The alleged Nokia 8 carries a price tag of CNY 3,188 (roughly Rs. 31,000) in the JD.com listing. Unfortunately, it's hard to confirm the authenticity of the online listing of the Nokia 8.

With less than a week left in the event slotted by HMD Global on Sunday, the e-commerce listing tips that we can expect the Nokia 8 to be announced. The images accompanied in the online listing appear to show concept renders of a Nokia smartphone with near bezel-less display.
