Nokia has officially confirmed its return to the smartphone market in 2017. The first new smartphones from Nokia are expected to be showcased at the Mobile World Congress(MWC) 2017 in Barcelona next year.


Nokia will not actually build smartphones any time soon, but it will supervise the manufacturing of Nokia branded devices by 3rd parties.Nokia sold its mobile business to Microsoft a few years ago, including its factories.

It is possible that one of the first Nokia branded handsets could be Nokia D1C that will spearhead Nokia re entry next year. D1C will support a Full HD 1080p display, an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 processor, 13-megapixel rear camera  and  8-megapixel front-facing camera  and 3GB of RAM & will run Android 7 Nougat.
