HMD Global ditches Nokia flagship smartphones for now

HMD Global has put rumours surrounding the Nokia flagship smartphone to rest, claiming that making flagships isn’t logical right now. The recently concluded MWC 2022 was graced by the announcements of several upcoming products. However, Nokia did not give it’s huge fanbase anything to cheer about at the event. The current manufacturer of Nokia phones, HMD Global, did announce a slew of lowend smartphones at Europe’s biggest mobile convention. To recall, HMD Global has been launching only budget and midrange smartphones for quite some time now. Moreover, it looks like we are highly unlikely to see flagship Pureview phones from the most popular European mobile brand anytime soon. HMD Head of Product Marketing, Global, Adam Ferguson told Android Authority that the company will not be making flagship smartphones for now. Ferguson also added that the company needs to do a lot before it starts launching flagship phones and competing with other leading brands.
