#Nokia 8 user guide shows interesting camera features

We usually don’t give much attention to the paperwork coming with our phones, and frankly, why should we? If we need help or want to know something we search online, and most manufacturers have the actual user guides online. As a consumer friendly company, HMD also posts all user guides of Nokia-branded devices on the official support page, and the same is with the newly announced Nokia 8.

To be 100% correct, you cannot find Nokia 8’s user guide via the official support page just yet, but the page is live and can be accessed directly by clicking here.

Apart from some pretty basic stuff like how to touch the phone, there are some interesting tips in the official user guide. For example, it shows the locations of microphones so you don’t cover one when recording. It describes the OZO Audio that has 3 options: Front – (audio focus in front of the camera) for recording an interview, for example; Rear – (audio focus on the user) for recording yourself talking, and “Surround” that records everything around you.

The “Live Bokeh” mode is also described, that allows the user to create Bokeh photos. There is also an editor of bokeh photos that allows the user to set up the intensity of bokeh effect.

For those not familiar, Nokia 8 features three 13MP ZEISS cameras: one monochrome and one RGB on the back, and one RGB on the front. It utilizes the Snapdragon 835 coupled with 4GB RAM, and features a 5.3-inch 2K display, 3090mAh battery, and 64GB of internal storage. Other “special” features of the 8 include OZO Audio, copper pipe and graphite shield for heat dispersion and a fingerprint sensor.
