    CargoJoe, 7 hours agoIn the end HMD never was able to grow the Nokia brand back ... moreAll those dying brand never recover after being bought.
    i.e. Alcatel, Blackberry, Erricson

    Motorola was an exception because America is a close market that have media power that dictate the market

      Can we just let zombie brands like Nokia, Kodak and other similar from the 90s just rest in peace without covering their names in ?

        model TA-1691 = 8sg3

          In the end HMD never was able to grow the Nokia brand back properly. Well all's well that ends well I guess.

              While it's true that nokia hold one of the largest communication patent, most of the patent already expired.

              Patent did have expiration date. between 5 years to 15 years.
              And most Nokia patent were in 1G, 2G and 3G era.
              4G & 5G era belong to the panda era.

                Nokia would develop old phones whiches have bette material and design. But they choose wrong way. They prefer new stile, they forget 1 issue this time not for copy paste. And all the companies have specific way.

                  Both r doing very bad

                    Wow, such historical moment. Although most of us here already knew that the Nokia branded smartphones are made by HMD for years, many consumers would still think Nokia as the same old Nokia. Another one bites the dust.

                    Very fascinating. One probably couldn't imagine that decades ago, the big players in mobile were brands like Nokia, Sony Ericsson, HTC, LG, Motorola, etc. The one last standing is just Samsung.

                      Everything that is excellent has an end. Goodbye, Nokia. Our earlier memories are never going to fade, It will last forever.

                        Indeed Horrible made devices with more horrible software. Ghost touch, lcd burn in, lag, bad software updates... Couldn't get any worse. Probably would get even worse in their upcoming models. I still have a nokia 6.2, the worst phone i ever had in my life. I thought Samsung J or A series were horrible until i used nokia. Actually this phone when i bought it was very good, i even fell in love with hmd, nokia and Android one experience. Until they pushed their final last update. The phone became a mess ... Nokia 6.2 and 7.2 were crippled. Both still have the same lag problem until today. Previously they used to be extremely optimized and smooth.
                        Also it's not a problem with apps getting bigger. The phone lags in its own ui and menu, offline, freshly factory reset. Using it is a torture.

                            Nokia, the smartphone manufacturer was dead for a very long time. They went to bed with the evil (Microsoft) and that killed them.
                            I loved the N80, or the ideea of Maemo (not Meego), but the slip to wild corporatism was too much of a temptation.
                            Now let Nokia rest in peace. Long live HMD!

                              Good riddance, hopefully they're next.
                              Nokia deserve this for not sticking to symbian or at least android.
                              Hmd have it coming too because they don't provide good software support and tend to slow down your phone with rigged updates. Also no interaction or reaction to customer complaints about their bugged updates.

                              I will never buy hmd again. They will gladly destroy your phone with a software update and call it a day. End of support.

                                Finland should buy Nokia brand again. Some things should stay original.

                                    A bunch of fools who let americans take over them. Glad whatever below the belt US is doing right now vs Huawei isn't working.

                                      HMD is nothing but a brand parasite, just like Microsoft.
                                      Everything they touch turns to sh*t.
                                      Nokia once led in photography, even with "outdated"/slower hardware (CPUs for example).
                                      HMD should delist itself instead--no one will ever touch their copycat Chinese-clone phones built from the cheapest leftover parts, sold at overpriced rates.
                                      We’ve learned that already--even the Nokia branding didn’t help.
                                      And Nokia was The King of them all back in the day; even scumbags @ apple couldn’t dream of the massive market share Nokia once had.

                                        I’d let Another company sponsor Nokia phones.
