Nokia, which was the queen of technology during the 90s and early 2000s and was about to disappear a few years ago, completely changed its strategy: abandoning the high-end and totally betting on cheap and austere devices, simple and reliable.
One year after its bet with the Nokia G21, it is still focused on more and better and good proof of this are the 3 new devices that have just been presented: the Nokia G32, the Nokia C32 and the Nokia C22.
The main feature of the 3 models is autonomy, which promises up to 3 days of use, but if you have to focus on one, it is precisely the Nokia G32, due to its collaboration with iFixit, something that will make it much easier and more affordable to repair the device yourself.
It will achieve this by offering several practical guides to follow the process step by step and access to parts for screens, charging port or new batteries.
Besides, have also launched a plan to manufacture Nokia devices in Europe with 5G, although it will take time.
We are very pleased to announce this first step on our journey to bring 5G device manufacturing to Europe.declares Jean-Francois Baril, co-founder, Chairman and CEO of HMD Global.
Now, it’s time to see the 3 devices in parts, with their specifications well explained.

As you can see, these are 3 devices with modest benefits, but it seems that they comply in the field of autonomy and, above all, in resistance to any fortuitous blow.
The most interesting is the Nokia G22, which stands out for its 90hz refresh rate and a design that does not exceed 200 grams.
I bet you a decent Unisoc T606 to which it adds 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal storage, which means a space for more than 64,000 photos that can be expanded by means of a MicroSD card up to 2TB. And be careful, it is possible to use virtual memory up to 6 GB if you need it.
Its thickness goes up to 8.48 mm but thanks to this it mounts a 5050 mAh battery and a 20W fast charge that, according to the company, can offer up to 3 days of use.
The most interesting, without a doubt, is the collaboration with iFixit that will make it possible to repair any damaged component of the device in a simple waythanks to a series of easy-to-follow guides and an affordable price, of which nothing is known at the moment.
The other 2 new members are somewhat more modest and practically share benefits.
To highlight the entry of Android 13 in the Nokia C32 and Android 13 (Go Edition) for the Nokia C22, IP52 resistance to which it adds 2.5 hardened glass for the panel and a weight, for both devices, below 200 grams, something to be thankful for.
