HMD's Head of Marketing on Nokia launches, plans for the future

20 March 2017
HMD wants Nokia to be a Top 3 brand again - ahead of Apple, Samsung and Huawei.

Sort by:

When will people get this! Nokia is name only. Nokia as a company no longer exists. HMD is the company now using the Nokia brand name. Your al in denial. B-D

    I think they can be maybe in top five within 2 or 3 year. They start with this low end devices of course, but in time it be more high end devices to.
    The priority during the coming months I suppose will be to make deals with carriers and distribution, service points and so on.

          It's Samsung that have been number one every year since Nokia, not apple. One slight win for one quarter didn't change Samsung's massive lead for 2016 overall. Not to mention that the stats compare all of apple phone sales to just a fraction of Samsung's phone sales.

            Anonymous, 20 Mar 2017cant tell if you are serious or joking sirYou think what you want, I said Africa, India and China are the biggest market to sell smartphones with good values and good price, if you see the marketing campaign during Barcelone, they focused directly to these markets.
            If you think all people can buy a smartphone at price 1000 dollars, perhaps you are serious.
            There is more 4 billion people in need of smartphone, they will not buy for you a Iphone or Galaxy s and note for you, they want only the most solid smartphone for durability, Nokia is the best for this type of phone.

                  Till June 16, I have used Lumia 630 & then shifted to iPhone. I got an zenfone but I didn't like it much. The satisfaction Nokia products can give, probably no other OEMs can provide this much. Not even apple, I must say. Let the handsets hit the market. I'm gonna sell my iPhone & buy a Nokia 6.

                    I don't care about high end specs of iPhones and Galaxies.

                    What I need is a phone that can withstand harsh conditions and can last for years.

                    Only Nokia can deliver outstanding build quality!

                    I trust Nokia! nothing else.

                        I really hope Nokia release one phone with Meego Harmattan UI on top of Android OS or just give option to the user to have Vanilla Android or Meego Harmattan UI. I just miss the gestures of Meego with curve that works termendously. In term of hardware, just bring in the camera design like the N95i with minimum 5x optical zoom plus 41MP sensor, infared/laser focus and Xenon Flash.

                          AnonD-168952, 20 Mar 2017Top 3? And my I ask how you want to achieve that goal since... moreYou are right.. But you must realise that Nokia 6 is their starting point.. Still the Nokia 6 has managed to deliver:
                          1. Strongest build quality (Check bend test)
                          2. Top notch 16MP that bested Mi5 and others even without Zeiss (Check camera quality)
                          3. Top class display with polariser (same technique used in ClearBlack)
                          4. Stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos (Even flagships lack these)
                          5. Super fast fingerprint scanner

                          That's just the start.. Imagine when the flagship or feature-centric models come out.. Nokia will be wiping the floor and once people all around you are using Nokias then you will cave in on your ego and start buying Nokia again.. Nokia is King.. Nokia has returned

                                  Nokia 6 just showed high end built quality. Now just shove high end hardware into it and we get one of the best smartphone of 2017. Good luck Nokia.
