      Look at the IDC charts and their rankings/performances. This is one of the reasons, why Hugo Barar was leaving Xiaomi urgently.

                consumersmartphone, 07 Feb 2017No, even Nokia, Samsung, Apple, can't win in China because ... moreI agree with the point that Nokia will be more success in their comeback to mobile phone industry if they focus their sales in Indonesia (South east Asia, exactly) & India, as there are TOO MANY Nokia fanboys in these area, even my parent are still one of them. BUT Nokia 6 will not sell well, as it as it was actually the same OVERPRICED piece of crap sold by Oppo. The only ones that will buy it are: Nokia fanboys, brand-minded consumers, and NOOBS, as Xiaomi or Lenovo have much better offering at the price of Nokia 6.

                Even if they did release Nokia 8, HMD will sold it @ US$700-850, and when it did comes to South East Asia or India, they will sold it for US$1000, as Nokia 9500 in Indonesia was sold around US$1000 when first launched here, not a price where tech-literate people will willing to pay for.

                So, good luck Nokia! I won't think of buying ur phone if u keep making a CRAP and sell it with a DIAMOND price tag!

                      some android users like iPhone, but hate to admit that they do. they want an iPhone, but with a cheap price tag.

                        Anonymous, 07 Feb 2017How come these overpriced iPhone copycats(oppo,vivo) are on top.I wonder the same thing.An oppo phone with a SD 653 SoC costs like 570 Euroes.Same as Samsung S7 edge.I am guessing the advertisement by Oppo must be amazing to force people to buy their phones at 2x price.

                                    Turn on tv..
                                    1 minute long oppo advertisement..
                                    Followed by vivo advertisement..
                                    When we walk through streets, we can see more oppo-vivo shops than grocery stores..
                                    India is now overcrowded with oppo-vivo Holdings..
                                    .
                                    There is a big disadvantage is there.
                                    It won't live long. Thats why other manufacturers are not focusing on over advertising. Only first time buyers will buy these craps and won't buy it again.
                                    So, it will die soon after a bombarding success.. But thats not the case with other brands.. They want us to continue with their brand.

                                      We can find atleast 3 oppo vivo shops and Holdings in every town in India...
                                      They are spending lot of money to virtually eliminate all other brands.. People think there is only oppo n vivo phones in town
