          This will probably get sued by Elon Musk's "The Boring Company".

              ME, 17 Apr 2024I can make a phone even more boring, one that does not work. I can make a phone even more boring, one that's made from cardboard or the one that doesn't exist.

                Anonymous, 17 Apr 2024Missed opportunity to mock Carl and call it Something Phone. Well I mean the name "Boring" itself is already a mock for Nothing's motto, "Let's make tech fun again."

                    Proof that HMD can make a 4G dumb phone. So no more excuses for their lazy 2G only phones.

                      Another reason why I don't bother to comment here as much anymore - most of the people who comment just refuse to read the article itself.

                          deuter, 17 Apr 2024They say the same nonsense about obesity, it's not you... moreNo one said about that for obesity lol it's both genetics and environmental
                          look up diabetes, you can get it much more easily if your family have it too
                          but you can have it by consuming sugar too, there are some types of it
                          it's not black and white, the world isn't that simple kid

                            Why can’t feature phones have an interface that mimics smart watches? If Nokia’s feature phones shipped with WearOS I’ll immediately buy one.

                                  It will not be sold, it will be a competition prize for Heineken campaigns.

                                        No internet access. Who is this for? Everything revolves around having data; gps, whatsapp, checking emails, employment applications require email and often times have you set up profiles on their websites.

                                        I like this phone, but it could not help me, I need a smartphone for personal and work tasks.
                                        Kind of seems like a burner for non vip friends haha :D
