Your unique insight into the stuff that goes behind the scenes, and your detailed yet concise explanation of the stuff that goes unnoticed by customers such as us, makes you and your channel truly remarkable! You are very under-rated KZbinr... I wish you all the best, may your channel keep on growing, and you keep enlightening us with your thoughtful content... And as al ways, that transition into the promotion part was remarkably coherent with the rest of the video :)

Nokia seems to be essentially following what some Android users said they've wanted for years. Near stock Android at an affordable price with little to no gimmicks. They've also got a fair amount of consumer trust due to their products having essentially a "this thing is near indestructible" reputation.

Hope the Fairphone "niche" becomes "mainstream". No underpaid people and materials along the supply chain, that's how every phone should be! Plus no phones dying after 2 years because of battery/storage/screen/any other component that forces you to buy a new one!

[@MatthiasNeumeister130499]

Well, but then they should start bringing software updates to their phones. It's great that I could theoretically use their phones for many years but they are extremely bad with software (-updates). And that's although they are using more or less stock Android..

HMD is based in FINLAND. Most people in charge are ex Nokia employees from their popular days. Both HMD Global and Nokia are FINNISH. People need to STFU about HMD being Chinese..

[@middletransport]

Ikr, it annoys me.

[@vivealexcheng]

It's Finnish, and Chinese, it's a global company, most global companies have research institutes, design centers, manufacturing, and testing facilities in different countries, this industry is more integrated and widely spread than most people imagine. Also, brands don't design every phone they sell, many have been done by ODMs that are more time and cost efficient in lower-end phones. If we consider Apple as an American, and Huawei, Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo as Chinese, Nokia is global, but nevertheless more Chinese than Apple.

[@The-Cat]

You are right, the Bq boom is over, around 3 years ago in Spain EVERYONE bought one of their phone, literally in my house we bought 3 of them and in the subways and in the streets they were everywhere and they even made advertisements on YT and in the streets. But around 1.5 years Xiaomi started getting famous and fast forward today, everyone is buying Xiaomi and they are building shops like crazy in the shopping centers and even in the most busy and tourist Square in Madrid... (Though I don't know the exact data, just my experience in Spain)

[@freundlichermensch7540]

I really like the idea of a fair produced phone. But I guess Fairphone is in a very difficult situation. I considered to buy one, but it's kinda old fashioned. No worries my friends, there is another star raising. They are called Shift Phone, a German Company. Same concept of fair paid labor and fair resources, but it's not as complicated. you can replace parts, they sell them, but it is not as easy as a Fairphone. I actually appreciate that, because they are way more advanced compared to Fairphone. I definitely gonna get one.

[@dimitrischristou]

@@freundlichermensch7540 Thank you!

[@nealjordan3076]

I have become very skeptical about Shiftphone. They claim to be as fair as possible but don't release much information on where they source their minerals & materials from, as well as the labour reports from their sourcing & manufacturing partners. Their last report is from 2016 and it mainly contains how they "want" to be fair, but does not contain any real insight into their supply chain. Their community has been asking for an updated report for more than a year and they still have not delivered.

Nokia needs to revisit some of those last Symbian devices, such as the N1 and that ilk. That form factor will instantly differentiate their devices, and I would love to buy a landscape keyboard phone that flips out or hinges up the keyboard.

[@FPRobber]

A slightly thicker 7+ with a hardware keyboard would be my dream phone.

[@Xpert56]

Not really, there is literally no market for that type of phones. If they release it for fun/humor like banana phone and Nokia 3310 then it would be cool. Not as a mainstream device though.

[@xmlthegreat]

@@Xpert56 why do you think people buy the Blackberry Androids? For the keyboard. If Nokia remade the N8 with that old style keyboard, lots of buisnesspeople and those who write a lot of text on their phones (like me) will buy it in a snap. Make the screen about 5 inches and they've got a winner. Needs good specs too of course, but a run would show them it's worth it.

[@Xpert56]

@@xmlthegreat Blackberry is good as a business phone. I really like what they are doing by sticking to their originality. But I don't think that Nokia needs to do that, let Blackberry take that market place. Anyways there are really less consumers who needs a phone like this.

[@MrPaukann]

@@marcdoung2947, the assembly is done by humans, yes. But high skill workers aren't cheap in China anymore. The reason why manufacturing in China is cheaper is the fact that all the components you need are made on a factory nearby. Also, even in Germany a lot of manufacturing is done by humans, because even in Germany human labour is cheaper than robot labour in most cases.

[@marcdoung2947]

@@MrPaukann , automated assembly is still very new and need time to become a thing. So yes.

Hi! I am enjoying several of your knowledgable videos these days, researching about the "business cases" within (more) sustainable mobile phones, such as the Fairphone. Am curious whether you would want to create another video about such (relatively sucessful or given-up) start-ups in Europe (say Shiftphone in Germany, and Finnish Puzzlephone that did not get the crowdfunding right) and why it is so damn hard to enter the market or win (a decent) market share. Might be modularity comes in back-door despite the earlier "modular phones' fail", as soon as more consumers (and designers) are convinced of better repairability and upgradability?

Sagem and Alcatel (both French?) were relatively ubiquitous for a time.. Usually aimed at the midrange to low-end with features and form factors that strived to copy the then market leaders (Nokia, erricson) with varying degrees of success and in their own quirky way .. They were both bought up by Chinese investment companies ages ago though.. Never a fan of Nokia - too commonplace and exorbitantly priced , the os (Symbian) whilst OK for its time was cumbersome and restrictive. They became too big, complacent and paid the price.

Well, nicely summed up on the Nokia. I always had a Nokia .. and got my Sirocco "of course" - because I would just not want to have a chinese or US brand phone. And Nokia adds just so much nostalgia. Also, their phones never disappointed me in any way. Even now my old Lumia 1020 is still fully functional (well, minus the stuck headphone jack - alright there is a disappointment) But on the subject of "why" - yes, it is nostalgia, nordic patriotism .. of sorts, and knowing that it has a kind of "cool" factor, too .. compared to the countless Iphones and Chinese phones.

No doubt about that. China is huge. And i have no illusions about my Nokia phone being totally outclassed in almost every aspect by a cheaper Chinese phone. But its just a nice feeling to have a phone produced in the neighbour country with a long history of phone making. Maybe - in a few years - some Chinese brands can enjoy similar brand recognition.
