At the final day of the CES 2017 tech show in La Vagas, New Nokia 6 android smartphone has been officially unveiled. While many has been waiting and anticipating Nokia come back to smartphone business, as we have earlier reported, the Nokia 6 Android smartphone was manufactured by the Finish Company, HMD Global, which is the new company to make and sell branded Nokia devices.
Last year Nokia sold its substantial smartphone shares to Microsoft, the deal gave Microsoft the sole right to manufacture and sell Lumia branded smartphones. This didn’t go well with Nokia as the once upon a time mobile giant saw it revenues plummeted under the year in review, hence a re-positioning and branding is necessary for the company to stage a comeback.
