According to reports, HMD Global, the maker of Nokia phones, is expected to establish its own smartphone brand and stop selling devices under the Nokia name. The company has confirmed that it will be introducing a new line of products, including smartphones, tablets, and wireless earbuds. There are rumors that the first HMD-branded smartphones will be unveiled at the upcoming MWC Barcelona event from February 26-29.

The official website of HMD states that they are the creators of Nokia phones, which suggests that there may still be Nokia-branded feature phones in the future.
