>mfw people think Microsoft bought Nokia
My cousin works for Nokia here in Finland and he just showed me a prototype of an Android phone they're releasing in 2016. It fucking BENDS!!! The fucking screen BENDS!!! You can even wear it around your fucking arm!!!!
He told me Nokia also still owns all their patents.

the 90s are over, Kimi
no one wants your crap anymore
I want to believe. The deal was a monumental fuckup for Microsoft.
I hope Nokia comes back and refugees go away and things go back as they were.

>Why Nokia didn't sell its patents to Microsoft
>Nokia may have sold its handset business to Microsoft Corp, but by hanging on to its valuable patent portfolio, the Finnish company could also get a big future payoff
>"For Nokia to sell the business, and not sell the patents, there must be something else cooking to recover value,"

>"When I joined in September of 2014, I was tasked with coming up with a new strategy for Nokia Technologies," Ramzi Haidamus, president of Nokia Technologies tells me.
>"You have to remember that this team is eager to get back into the game," Haidamus stresses. "This is the first product from Nokia Technologies since the phone days, and they just really wanted to outdo themselves."

No one has used a Nokia phone here since 2005 at the latest
>lego/barbie phone isn't the future

US was never the market for Nokia. It was India and other shit that bought Nokia the most. And obviously a big part of Europe in the early 00s, but i'm talking late 00s now.
>>52500340
Have fun with nokia funland i hope it works out for you
>>52500189

NOKIA IS COMING BACK BABY AND IT WILL SAVE OUR EURO-CANCERIFIED ECONOMY
WE WILL REMOVE OURSELVES FROM EU AND EURO AND WE WILL KICK OUT ALL THE MUDSLIMES
FINLAND WILL RISE AGAIN
FINLAND STRONG!

Americans are cu cked by carrier contracts. Nokia never played your corrupt carrier game.
>from microshit to cuckroid
oh wow another useless facebook machine piece of shit, why not go ios while they're at it
>>52499645
Fuck off cuckshill.
Finland wins again.
We are unstoppable.
Nokia and android? What happen with this glorious strategy?

We made a phone that bends like a year or so ago
It's fucking pointless m8
>Nokia got BTFO
>Finnish economy literally the sick man of Europe
>b-but N-Nokia will become g-good again
>>52504493
Nokia's leadership going into the smarphone era was abysmal. They were dragged kicking and screaming into the smartphone market and then went for Microshit.
I really don't care about Nokia or have any faith in them anymore.
>>52499645
Good. I like Microsoft and all but they should stick to their shit and let other companies do their own thing without fucking it up.
I think it's kind of sad that Fins cling to an outdated company in hopes that it will save their economy. I really hope it works out for you guys

Nokia still makes good tires and rubber boots
>>52504776
Nokia has some great perks though. Sure you can say the battery life was only a thing because the phone wasn't high tech but I don't doubt they'll continue on with the amazing battery life and keep on with the durability part.

>says the country that didn't recover from recession already
Lmao
>>52505030
We haven't been in a recession since november 2013. We're doing fine, thanks for your concern
>>52500146
They wanted to buy a failed phone division and not the patents that are basically making free money for them?
>>52504776
Nokia is actually very big in the Fixed & Wireless network business, both in the actual infrastructure and the devices for the end users.
They bought Alcatel-Lucent, their biggest competitor, with the money they got from the Microsoft deal. Lucent is a former part of AT&T and houses the famous Bell Labs R&D department.
>Bell Labs: radio astronomy, the transistor, the laser, the charge-coupled device (CCD), information theory, the UNIX operating system, the C programming language, S programming language and the C++ programming language. >Eight Nobel Prizes have been awarded for work completed at Bell Laboratories.
t. I worked on the M&A deal headed by JPM (I do not work for JPM)

>Eight Nobel Prizes have been awarded for work completed at Bell Laboratories.
The deal will go through in early 2016.

So How long until all communication companies in the world just become one giant ?

Korea copied Nokia invented technology. Your phone didn't bend, it was curved. Nokia bending phone from 4 years ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEs8HQIa9Nc
The technology is now perfected
Nokia invented bendable displays and electronics. Some videos from 5 years ago. All patents still owned 100% by Nokia. http://www.engadget.com/2010/09/28/a-grand-tour-of-nanotechnology-at-nokia-research-center-cambrid/
