It looks like the Nokia brand may be set to die all over again. The current custodian of the mobile brand name — HMD Global — has published a slightly confusing blog post that simultaneously promotes 2024 as “the year of Human Mobile Devices” with “original HMD devices and phones from all-new partnerships” while giving mixed signals on its Nokia-products.
“Love Nokia phones? Same here,” reads a heading that then goes on to say that “you can keep shopping for Nokia phones, tablets and accessories” and that “your current Nokia devices will continue to get the full backing and support they deserve”. But crucially it doesn’t take the opportunity to say there will be any new products before its licensing agreement expires in 2026.
