Leaked image reveals the new Nokia 8 with dual-camera setup and Carl Zeiss optics

A leaked image was shared on Twitter of what is rumoured to be the new Nokia 8. The image clearly shows both sides of the phone revealing the dual rear-camera module which shows off the Zeiss branding of the latest **Nokia**  smartphone. The image shared by prolific tipster **Evan Blass** on his Twitter account was shared shortly after he teased an image of the Nokia 8 camera module, captioned with a hashtag ’teaser’. The image reveals a familiar design language seen previously on the Nokia 3, 5 and 6. The main highlight, however, is the primary camera module on the back which confirms that Carl Zeiss and **HMD Global** are working together on upcoming Nokia flagship devices.

This is also likely to be the first Nokia-branded smartphone to sport a dual-camera setup. We are not sure about the exact setup of the dual cameras here as the company has not clarified if it will go with a monochrome sensor and an RGB sensor or it will pack a normal lens along with a telephoto lens like iPhone 7 Plus and OnePlus 5. The revealed image shows up a day after a **report** stating that the new Nokia flagship is expected to go on sale on 31 July. While previous reports expected the Nokia 9 to be launched in the second quarter of 2017, it now seems that the Nokia 8 would arrive first. The report also mentioned that the **Nokia 8**  will bear a model number TA-1004 and will be powered by Snapdragon 835 chipset. The device is expected to pack in 4 GB RAM and to come with 64 GB of internal storage. It is expected with a dual-SIM card slot in European markets along with a single SIM variant for other markets.
