After launching three smartphones in India on Wednesday, HMD Global, the brand licensee of Nokia brand, is now planning to launch a 4G feature phone in the country. The device is expected to make its way to the Indian market in the next couple of months.
"Nokia 8110 is a feature phone and we'll be launching that in the next couple of months," said Ajey Mehta, Vice President, and Country Head India, HMD in an exclusive interaction with GIZBOT. He also mentioned that the company is also planning to launch accessories in audio and other segments in the following months.
"We launched our smartphones last year in June and the response has been very positive, in fact, our distribution partners are optimistic about our business and acceptance of our products has been really high."
"Now we are ready for aggressive growth and the first step towards this growth is to have expanded portfolio and these devices are the first step in this direction," Mehta further said.

On tying with operators, he said we have tied up with Jio for Nokia 1. For Nokia 6, Nokia 7 plus and Nokia 8 will follow tie-ups with Airtel.
