Nokia launching new eco- and self-repairability focused phone!

[Mortis Angelus]

Nokia launched its new G22, a phone with focus on being more eco-friendly and presumably easy to fix yourself, by making it easy to open up and access internal components.

 

I dont know much more than that, but thought it would be a fun thing to mention here and hopefully Linus is gonna make a video about this phone too.

 

If you know more, just post more info in the thread.

And to open it you just have to rent a 400$ tool from nokia to replace a part that customs wont allow into the country. The future.....

According to this source (in Swedish, but you can translate it) a basic repair kit for opening the phone comes in the box with the phone.

 

Furthermore, most people who are savvy/interested enough to repair their own phones usually tend to own an ifixit kit or something similar.

Would fit the re-branding... If it was Napplia 

 

Good for nokia, also good that they're moving manufacturing back to Finland. Might start considering them now. Just needs to support their phones as long as Fairphone has been doing.
