HMD Global's rebrand, now Human Mobile Devices, is ramping up its efforts in entering the smartphone market with the latest devices it will debut this MWC 2024. The company teased these new models that will soon be up for a grand unveiling via the Barcelona, Spain event happening this week, with four devices still hidden under pixelized silhouettes to look forward to.
One of the biggest revelations of the company is teasing its collaboration with Mattel and Barbie on a new flip phone dedicated to the famed global doll and fashion icon.
The Barbie Flip Phone will arrive this summer 2024. Promising style, nostalgia and a much-needed digital detox, this retro feature phone will flip the script on smartphone culture and will be this summer's hottest accessory.
Alongside this, new Nokia smartphones are also making their way for a next-season release.
Human Mobile Devices is putting a massive focus on its original device showcase this year, with the initial four coming this MWC 2024.
Apart from that, the company also promised improvements in fixing a phone screen, "substantially reducing the number of steps" required to do so under its "FIY" (Fix It Yourself) movement with better repairability.
HMD Global and Nokia
Nokia is taking the Mobile World Congress stage with massive announcements from the company, and back in 2017, the company announced that it joined HMD Global via an acquisition from its previous owners, Microsoft. This also marked the time the renowned Finnish brand transitioned from being a Windows-powered phone to an Android-based smartphone.
Throughout the years, HMD Global and Nokia debuted different Android smartphones under the Finnish brand name to the world, offering a massive range that suited various types of needs or requirements. From its budget-friendly 5G smartphones down to new foldables and its focus on self-repairs available for its affordable smartphone lineup.
Nokia's take on Android was said to be ending under HMD, but that was not the case, as the company only focused on its new brand launch, with the famed Finnish name continuing its developments and offers.
Human Mobile Devices is now the name of the company, and its latest focus is introducing its brand to bring original technology that centers more on what people need or require from a smartphone. This week, the Barbie Flip Phone and more Nokia smartphones are getting a massive introduction from HMD, highlighting human innovation for all.
