HMD Announces Three New Affordable Nokia Smartphones



HMD, the owner of the rights to the Nokia brand, announced three new phones in the economy class to consolidate its position in the mobile phone market and reap more profits, especially after the company achieved its first full year of profitability in 2021.

These new phones fall into the C category, which HMD says accounted for 16 percent of its total sales in the mobile phone sector in the past five years: Nokia C21 Plus, Nokia C21, and Nokia C2 2nd generation.

The phones feature very modest technical specifications, a large battery, and come with a pure Android Go Edition (no bloatware) with a guarantee of two years of security updates (quarterly updates).
