Those who buy nokia don't care about price . But if hmd sells odm made phone same as realme.. why would trust that brand? Here they sold x20 g60 x30 made by guangdok or something. Now this phone will be made by padget ... Just like any redmi or poco phone . Now Samsung n apple are only brand in India who has at least some control over quality of the hardware they sell

MakeNokiaGreatAgain, 10 Aug 2023In any case, parent Nokia can always acquire HMD and start ... moreThat is never gonna happen, although HMD were supposed to start manufacturing (probably just assembling) a 5G device in Europe in Q3 2023, so we might see this announced at IFA 2023 next month.
I think Nokia Oy. need a harder time for the way they have managed their brand licensing and hands-off approach with HMD.

Glad phone is pwm flicker free but since i using on 60hz, display is very bad like others have said before. Keep pressing keyboard an on screen no response until i press 2 to 3 time. Sometime screen nav gesture not work too. This is no good. Is hardware or software? I have few day left to return for refund an i need to know if this will be fix or should i return n exchange?

In any case, parent Nokia can always acquire HMD and start making phones in Europe again. See no problem there. The return of Nokia Corp. and new phones with new Nokia logo will give a huge boost to sales. Oh, and bring back Alcatel as well.

I think some of you are being too harsh.
Yes, I've had my own issues with HMD in the past, and I have yet to try or test the G42 to pass any judgment, however, I LOVE the fact that HMD are offering easily repairable devices with easily replaceable parts.
This is an excellent step in the right direction, giving consumers this type choice and freedom to repair/replace.
Kudos to HMD.
I hope the successor to the G60 will also have this feature (along with a more updated processor). In the meantime, I'm also looking forward to the new fairphone 5.
Exciting times!!!!

AnonD-1096870, 09 Aug 2023I'm afraid I don't know what you are on about reg... moreSomewhat selective quotation from the report however, the risks referred to are in relation to FIH Mobile's relationship with HMD as a major customer, not necessarily the health of HMD as a whole.
FIH are concerned they are not getting the return on investment in HMD due to the latter switching to a multi-ODM vendor model for smartphones in Q2 2019 (FIH were the sole ODM for Nokia-branded smartphones) and HMD also using other ODMs for feature phone models (in Q1 2022).
NokiaMob covered the report at the time: https://nokiamob.net/2022/09/21/fih-is-keeping-nokia-branded-featurephones-alive/
Who knows how HMD have fared in 2023 so far? Supposedly searches for 'Nokia flip phones' were up 243% in May this year and the 2660 sold out of the new Pink & Green colourways.

Hmd offer such bad quality phones like g42 its no surprise hmd will eventually go bust.
Only the die hard fan boys online try to boost hmd phones, but the low sales & hmd forums show true picture of how bad an low quality hmd phones are, due to all quality complaints
G42 is so badly lag phone with very bad touch screen. Feels like it is 20hz touch sample rate in 2023 🤣🤣
Hmd = industry joke

Nokia / HMD released 19 phones already this year and we're only in August. That maybe an annual record number for HMD. Bankruptcy my ass.
