Amidst a significant transformation involving the rebranding of NokiaMobile accounts to HMD, there were concerns about the end of Nokia’s legacy. However, HMD Global strategically aimed to establish the HMD brand as a new force in the smartphone industry, countering perceptions of Nokia’s demise.
Contrary to speculations, Nokia is far from dead. The GSMChina team has unveiled information indicating the launch of 17 new Nokia phones in 2024. An official agreement between Nokia and HMD, extending until 2026, ensures the iconic Nokia brand’s continued presence in the mobile market.
The model numbers TA-1603 to TA-1628 have been confirmed, though detailed specifications remain undisclosed. Despite being in the testing phase, anticipation is high among Nokia enthusiasts. While specific release dates are unclear, some speculations suggest potential announcements at the upcoming Mobile World Congress.
Though awaiting official details on features and specifications, it is evident that Nokia’s brand is still thriving and evolving. Looking forward, the frequency of new product announcements beyond 2026 is uncertain. There is a possibility that Nokia may announce products less frequently, maintaining its market presence, and allowing HMD Global Oy to focus on establishing the HMD brand as a pioneer in the competitive smartphone industry.
