too little too late i am afraid.
gone are the days where nokia comes up with jaw dropping design and icon phones. the phone looks like the old candy bar phone that no one uses save for banglas.
definitely not the way to rise from ashes.

holy fuck! they broke ranks and created a phone with pressable physical keys instead of the usual touch screen all smart phones have.
First thing based on my own opinion in which i believe many ppl share. That phone looks like a dinosaur. It looks like it was made in the early 2000s where most phones did not have smart phone features but color screens and of course they had camera capabilities. Of course it will have better camera features but again i reiterate that phone just looks like a dinosaur it looks old.
There is a reason why phones nowadays remove all the physical key features and just added in a giant touch screen. It's more versatile. it can be a video player, plays games, allows more screen to read books, used as a map etc. This is standard amongst all smart phones. It's a feature to stay. The only phones with physical keys that probably have some small market share would be black berries which serve another purpose namely a secure msging system. The physical keys seriously reduce the size of the screen of the phone which by itself is a big minus point.
Nokia isn't a game changer unlike apple. Remember how did phones start having unremovable batteries, specialized compartments which require a small pin to take out the sim card etc which in turn built up an entire industry in accessories and 3rd party items like power banks etc. Yup it was apple's iphone that started all of that. Previously no one would dream of making the battery unremovable or require some small pin to take out your sim but they had their plus points. You don't need to switch off your phone to switch sim cards. Same thing with using a power bank you don't need to turn off your phone to switch the battery. This worked so well that it's moved on to notebooks/ultrabooks as well. Many notebooks follow the macbook and cannot have their battery removed. In any case nokia isn't apple they do something new and the public/other brands won't adapt to them. Also what the fuck does 150 mean? What does the significance of 150 hold?
Just recall previously before the iphone took over and nokia was king they produced tons of different phone models and released them probably just weeks/months after the latest model. You would have nokia 2230, 2250, 2260 then 3510, 3610, 3810, 8820, 8850, 8880 you see my point. What a fucking mess that was. Obviously when the new models got released the old models and their parts started becoming redundant. Assume you bought an 8820 and then the 8850 got released. Shops started selling 8850 accessories and you have a lower chance of getting your 8820 batteries and other accessories. The iphone standardized all of this. It was iphone 3 then the 3s with different GB size, then it became ip4, 4s etc etc see how less confusing it is. Therefore by coming out with the nokia 150 and the 150 doesn't even seem to have any significance to the layman is another minus point IMO.
Lastly look at the phones crappy specs.
Not kidding just go to gsmarena.

See i just randomly selected some of their specs. Remember how i mention this phone looks like it comes from the early 2000s well the features actually look like they come from that era as well despite it being released in 2017. No mp3 ringtones? VGA camera with no news of how the camera's mp will be like? WTF.

ooooh shit Nokia is revolutionizing cellphones again!!!
it has to look distinctively Nokiaish,if they make a smartphone version of 3310 i would carry it.
u know Nokia has a huge fanbase,millions of people would buy it just to look retro.....fuck smartphones,they have been releasing the same shit over and over again and its getting old.in the age where technology has become obsolescence,Nokia has brought back style and taste.

I believe this is Nokia's soft launch of their own Nokia historical iconic phone . Moreover, it cost less than $50.
The real launch of Nokia phone is year 2017.
Why so hard up on this. you think Nokia is stupid? Only sinkies are stupid.
