          This should have happened when they stopped bringing flagship phones and pricing their mid range phones like flagship.
          Price is not everything but they had nothing to justify the prices. They even failed to name their phones properly. Nokia 8 was flagship 8.1 was midrange. 8.1 had OIS for main cam & the upgraded 8.3 lost it.
          They said 8.1 is upgrade of Nokia 7+. But 8.1 lost telephoto camera and replaced it with useless depth sensor. Nokia 7.1 was not upgraded phone of Nokia 7plus. They gave stock android and delivered software updates later than custom android.
          They didn't know what to do with name, Nokia brand name, spec. They failed in every aspect of business. They tried to bring back good old keyad phone design. Even that was not done properly. They could've developed better android OS for those devices instead. Or brought back Symbian OS for those devices. They tried to become secondary phone just for call but did not look into what call app can do nowadays apart from dialing numbers.

            Niko Sable, 30 Sep 2024HMD just idiots, such a perfect brand name is dead now.Its not that bad and Nokia still continues toe xist as a network.
            Phones are gone for now.

              nokia old or new nokia just couldn't come up with new innovative smartphones. they more or less just copied what the competition are doing. here in thailand nobody wants to buy them at all.

                  the fun times, 30 Sep 2024meizu would quit the mobile business but didn't yetYet. They're dying now.

                    I wonder what would happen to Nokia if the elop trojan never been planted
                    We could have three OSes by now
                    Now most of OSes belong to Americans as intended expect for Linux

                        What happened to Nokia proves that no one is ever resilient, so Apple should be careful.

                            Which means that using shitty setup for p50 pro ( much weaker than mate 40 pro) was choice. Not necessity.

                            From imx700y to ov50a was ultra 🤮.

                                    HorriblyMadeDevices, 30 Sep 2024HMD is nothing but a brand parasite, just like Microsoft. ... moreNokia's major lead in image quality in 2012-13 could be mostly attributed to a significant hardware advantage (Much larger sensor and lens aperture) as well as their highly skilled imaging team taking care of the software processing side.

                                    After their demise, many of these engineers moved to other manufacturers, and they lost their advantage in sensor size, too - Look at Nokia 9 PV, it was an utter failure that tried to do stuff differently but flopped hard for the sake of simply being unique. Huawei, on the other hand, followed Nokia's old successful formulae and eventually forced the industry to push boundaries in both the camera hardware and software, until they got banned by the US.
