Nokia is lowering their prices for smartphones!

Nokia Smartphone

Android is growing day by day but this doesn’t mean that it should rest on its laurels. Nokia has two problems right now: the Android handsets that boast affordable and accessible prices and the cheap mobile phones with modest specifications that are manufactured like crazy in China. It is true that the Finns have other problems too but solving them one at a time is better… The problem regarding the affordable smartphones of its rivals seems to have already found its solution – lower prices for Nokia smartphones. Pretty simple, isn’t it?
Sources inside the telecom segment have information that Nokia plans to lower the prices to very attractive levels for its models. This strategy comes amidst the growing loss of market share of Nokia in favor of you-know-who. Terminals with Android on board and the iPhone is your answer. The Finns could report losses for the second and third quarter of this year and Reuters quoted inside sources, saying that the phone manufacturer will make discounts by up to 15%. So what smartphones are going down this route? The concerned models are Nokia N8, C7 and E6, each aiming at a specific target group of audience. There will also be discounts for other Nokia phones, but the percentage will be lower and not more than 15%.
So what does this mean for Sony Ericsson, LG and Motorola? Following Nokia’s price drops, these companies would be forced to rethink their strategy and come up with even more attractive offers. On the other hand, we all know who comes up victorious from this fierce battle between mobile developers: the customer! In the end, buyers are those who win through lower prices, but I hope this does not affect the quality of some products made by companies that will fight for these lower costs. We’ll certainly keep our eyes wide open.
