Buying advice for Algeria

Both Nokia 7 and Nokia 8 are sold in Algeria, but they fit different priorities.

Nokia 8 packs a 3090 mAh battery, which translates to longer screen-on time when you are away from a charger.

Nokia 7 reaches a higher main-sensor resolution at 16 MP, which helps with crops and lower-light photos.
