Nokia today announced the grand opening of its 8th Flagship store around the globe. This one finally put the Finnish manufacturer on London’s Regent Street, directly across from the Apple Store. The store features Nokia’s entire current collection of handsets, all with internet connectivity so you can fully explore their capabilities.

We sent our very own James Whatley on assignment to check it out with his Nokia N95 equipped with Qik, and he was able to take this wonderful video:

Note how friendly the Nokia staff are, and totally willing to help him out, not really camera shy in the slightest (though James respectfully resists capturing them without permission). A cool fact is that Nokia requires all Flagship store employees to graduate from ‘Nokia Academy’ before starting, to make sure that they are able to offer the absolute best service and knowledge to visitors.

Nokia will also be opening a location in Heathrow Airport later this year.
