HMD Embraces Open Innovations

This is a continuous determination by HMD to push the boundaries to reimagine mobile repairability.

HMD revealed what life will look like as Human Mobile Devices. As part of its evolution, HMD is about making phones that are affordable, beautiful, desirable, and repairable.

Jean-Francois Baril, HMD Co-founder, Chairman and CEO, said, “In our seven-year journey, collaboration and support has allowed us to achieve so much. And we have plans to do so much more as we introduce the world to the new HMD. We want to be a catalyst for positive and profitable change by embracing a multi-brand strategy: crafting new HMD original devices, creating Nokia phones and collaborating with well-known global partners.”

James Robinson, HMD VP Europe, Americas and Enterprise, said, “One year ago, we introduced our first repairable phone to a great response. 12 months on, we are determined to continue to push the boundaries to reimagine repairability. As more and more people seek out easy-to-repair devices so they can keep their phone longer – and save hassle or delays when fixes are needed – we’re excited to make that process as easy as possible, starting this summer.”

This summer, HMD repairability goes to the next level, substantially reducing the number of steps it takes to fix the screen. Users can say goodbye to phone separation due to a broken screen and get swept up in the ‘FIY’ (Fix it Yourself) movement.
