Nokia has announced the newest member of the G-series family in the Nokia smartphone line-up, the Nokia G21. Falling within the affordable smartphones category, it comes with impressive three-day battery life and improved display refresh for an extra smooth experience.
According to Nokia, its mission from day one has been to make quality mobile technology accessible to everyone around the world, with CEO at HMD Global, Florian Seiche explaining that since Nokia introduced the G-series last year, it has enhanced each new addition that has followed in every way. Seiche went on to say that the Nokia G21 encompasses all of Nokia’s hard work. And not only today but for years to come thanks to regular software updates and quality materials used. Seiche continued that Nokia believes in connecting the world without costing the earth and that the brand wants to empower people to feel good about keeping their smartphones for longer and combat the upgrade culture, so we can all reduce our carbon footprint.
