Sounds like Nokia by name, not by reputation. They used to build coherent phones before iPhones decimated them.

One of the things that actually sold me aside from the repairability thing and all was their wikipedia page[0] where it says that "HMD is headquartered in Espoo, Finland, and is largely run by former Nokia executives."

I was rather hoping that it'd be more like the Nokia we all remember from pre-iPhones. Guess not.

It's basically an attempt to capitalize on the goodwill of the old Nokia. Headline products are nostalgia-fuelled feature phone remakes. Their Android lineup is indeed very meh.

Pretty similar to the "new" Atari.
