Nokia, the biggest phone manufacturer of the nineties, took a deep fall when the iPhone, and smartphones in general, hit the market. Despite Microsoft’s efforts, and hopes, the Windows run Nokia Lumia phones just didn’t manage to live up to the reputation of the big names Microsoft and Nokia.
The turning point could have been an announcement at this year’s Mobile World Congress; the Finnish HMD Global Oy declared itself the new home of Nokia phones.
HMD has planned three Android phones, The Nokia 3, The Nokia 5, The Nokia 6 and a reboot of the classic Nokia 3310.
Let’s take a look at the specs of the upcoming Nokia phones:
