Ever since the HMD Global Oy to the helm of rejuvenating the Nokia brand in 2016, it has done a tremendous job. Within a short span, it has released numerous pure Android-powered Nokia phones in various budget segments and this apparently helped the company attract more people in emerging markets like India.
