The company on Sunday launched five mobile phones including its premium segment Nokia 9 PureView with five cameras in the price range estimated to be around Rs 50,000 a unit as per global price shared by the company. “We are very seriously focussing on imaging which is one of the experiences that we want to deliver to consumers.

The company unveiled Nokia 4.2 expected to be priced in the range of Rs 12,000- Rs 15,000, Nokia 3.2 for Rs 10,000-12000 a unit and Nokia 1 Plus for around Rs 7,000 a unit. HMD also unveiled a feature phone Nokia 210 that will be priced around Rs 3,500 a unit.

Mehta said that specific timing of the launch of these phones would be decided in some time but all of them are expected to start selling in India in the second quarter. Nokia brand phones dominated the India market for about 7-8 years when mobile telephony started in the country but lost its spot to South Korean major Samsung and was adversely impacted by the sale of low-cost Chinese phones.
