Google and Qualcomm invest big in HMD Global, "the home of Nokia phones"

11 August 2020
HMD Global has big plans.

Sort by:

Nokia's guys are lazy and don't want basiclly to get more market share......they need another mentality.

    Damn, they invested $230? You could buy a whole Nokia phone with that.

      A full $230? Pushing the boat out lol

        LG Superfan, 11 Aug 2020Hopefully Google's bad phone luck doesn't cross t... moreHMD already have bad luck.

Nevermind the others, even the actual 'Pureview' Nokia 8.3 and 9 produce highly debatable but definitely not close to the best photo qualities.

          And to open up some audience for free, here's a tip -- unlock the bootloader....

              If upcoming Pixels are gonna be done by Nokia, this could be good. Pixel cam with the insanity of the Pureview could make this enticing.

                "$230"

                Daaaamn that's big money right there!


                LOL

                  Hopefully Google's bad phone luck doesn't cross to HMD and IMO Sony phones are better than Nokia

                    C'mon Nokia... Google and Qualcomm can easily make Nokia the best... Simple...

                    Use a Qualcomm 875 X1 Custom core processor and make the most insane specced gaming phone on the planet...

                    It will sell like hotcakes.

                      So... Qualcomm's Android One confirmed then

                        Well if Google think they can make money with their under-specced and overpriced phones it must be true. Even though Google failed to make the Nexus range commercially successful, failed to make Motorola commercially successful and are currently failing to make the Pixel range commercially successful

                        But hey, 4th times the charm
