While it put the Nokia brand behind it (for smartphones, at least), it is still playing the greatest hits from Nokia’s design department.
HMD stopped using the Nokia brand for its recent Android phones, but it still reaches into the bag of old Nokia designs – and this time it pulled out a winner.

And it’s mostly positive attention too, though the comment section was not without critical voices.

Some people are waiting on reviews (ours is coming soon), but plenty are already excited.
