Nokia has signed a multi-year, multi-billion-dollar extension agreement with Bharti Airtel to deploy 4G and 5G equipment across Indian cities, the telecom major informed the exchanges on Wednesday.
The companies will explore 5G use cases for enterprises and compelling solutions for data centres.
For the first time in 60 years, Finnish tech multinational Nokia has changed its logo as it focuses on faster growth and signals a new strategy shift.
At the recently held 5G spectrum auction for 5G services by the Department of Telecom, Airtel acquired 19867.8 MHZ range in 900 MHz, 1800 MHz, 2100 MHz, 3300 MHz, and 26 GHz frequencies.
Out of three handsets, Nokia 5710 Xpress Audio looks the most promising phone, as it also offers built-in wireless earbuds. It has a sliding panel attached to its rear side, which houses wireless earbuds.
As calls to boycott Chinese products are gaining momentum, can India afford to do so? No, say experts, particularly in the mobile phone segment.
Nokia has also deployed more than 5,500 TD-LTE massive Mimo (an advance 4G technology) cells.
The deal comes six months after the Finnish network downgraded its 2020 earnings forecast in October 2019.
Company’s board and Suri worked closely to develop internal candidates and identify external candidates.
"Nokia is already one of our key partners in developing the 5G ecosystem, and now we are exploring use cases such as Industry 4.0 that can benefit tremendously with 5G," said Anupam Srivastava, Managing Director at BSNL.
