Now, it appears that the company has accidentally revealed the phone ahead of the launch. A promotional photo was posted to the company's Chinese website showing the Nokia 8. If there were any doubts about earlier leaked photos, we now have confirmation that this is indeed Nokia's flagship.

The phone should be officially unveiled on July 20th, and according to previous reports, it will be powered by Snapdragon 835 and come with 4GB or 6GB of RAM. The device is expected to feature a 5.3-inch QHD display and run Android 7.1.1 Nougat.

HMD Global recently announced that they are partnering up with Zeiss to "to set new imaging standards within the smartphone industry," and the Nokia 8 should have dual rear camera setup. No word on whether this means a new top score in DxOMark or not.

Some sources report that the device will be priced at $675.
