Upcoming Nokia 4G feature phone

Nokia was once one of the biggest phone manufacturers in the world. Its feature devices have become legends in the industry. And now, after the success of several smartphones recently, the Finnish company wants to make a move on the basic phones market. Its plan is to create low-cost but effective devices. Nokia’s intention is to compete with other brands like Reliance Jio, Vodaphone, Airtel, etc. According to Mr. Ajey Mehta, India VP for HMD Global, “4G feature phones are a critical part of our strategy.”

Of late 4G feature phone has become a buzz word in the Indian mobile phone space, especially after Reliance Jio announced its 4G feature phone. The device looks like a feature phone but can perform almost all the tasks of an entry or mid-level smartphone. The feature phone from RIL, Jio Phone, is planned to be distributed free keeping a security deposit of Rs. 1500 which will be refunded to the user when the user returns the phone after 3 years.

In fact, the company has released four feature phones in India. The most recent one is 2017 version of the legendary Nokia 3310. However, these devices lack of 4G capabilities. Market analysts say that with absence of a 4G feature device, at a time when mobile operators are aggressively focusing on the category, will hit Nokia’s chances.
