Counterpoint: HMD shipped 2 million Nokia smartphones in Q1, up from 1.7 million a year ago

26 May 2021
But it's not all good. The Nokia phones fell out of favor in India, but are doing well in Africa and parts of Europe.

dt031sin, 28 May 2021SD480 maybe close in performance to an SD750, just for day ... moreI have the x20 and the camera is ok! The sd480 does the job just perfectly and the screen is also better than in past models like 5.3, 5.4, 3.4.
Stop making them bad, they improved a lot.
I can't understand why people like Samsung A52 5G but are ctiticizing the x20.
Just try both phones to make an opinion!

    They fell out of favor in India because they don't manage to release their new phones there! No 8.3, no x20, no x10!

      I love Nokia as a brand. HMD ruined Nokia's legacy.

      Please stop making Nokia phones, you ruined everything.

      I love Nokia. I hate HMD.

          A 60Hz LCD, generic and stale plastic backed design, avg. battery life and charging speeds and having basically 3 useless camera sensors.
          There is nothing on this phone that stands out and the phone doesn't even stand as an avg. all round phone.

            Those who comment on the recent Nokia X20 with a supposedly low end SD480.. Get your facts checked because SD480 is nowhere underpowered.. It is actually as powerful as SD750G.. Quallcomm messed up the naming convention.. Nokia done their homework and SD480 offers plenty of performance for the X20

Aesthetic/concept design is still done in-house.. Engineering design, production n tooling is outsourced to China company BUT with strict guidelines and quality control.. This is because HMD is still a small company compared to Samsung for example.. You'll only understand this if you are familiar with industrial product design..

                    I have nokia 2.4. I never felt bad for purchasing it. Only the latest software update bought some bugs. It should be fixed by next update.

                              I lost my trust on Nokia for charging port issue। Bought Nokia 7plus। But I repaired the charging port three times। Ultimately left it

                                For me the last good phone they made was the 7 plus. the sd 660 was still actually quite powerful at the time of the phone's release and android one ensured a smooth user experience. I've even played genshin impact on it albeit on very low graphics.
                                I did experience a few problems and glitches, those are gone now most likely because of the regular updates. And the design was actually pleasing to me.
                                Nowadays I look at their new phones and all of them look like generic chinese phones.
                                Uninspired, bland and built with hardware that are already outdated by the time they are released.

                                  And that's Nokia we're talking about, so yeah its concerning. HMD is using the Nokia brand name to sell low range smartphones for mid-range money. That's all. Garbage yes, but there's a Nokia logo on it so lets charge big money for it.

                                  And don't get me started on the updates. If the hardware sucks to begin with then software ain't gonna save that.
