#TheStoryBehind #Europe #Analysis
it is because European are Ego and they refuse android system, when they accept, it is too late
So i think the Fairphone is a good idea
Nokia is not in a very good situation in India
*Me watching this in 2021 with no European brand out yet*
Europe is doomed, there is no tech startup here nothing. It’s all shit !
You forgot about Sagem,
If Siemens is returning to the market, they can survive with Android, as in premium segment only Samsung is the key player, Siemens has good brand value, on par with Samsung
Fairphone is extremely for what you get especially 3 she it was released. I rafher buy an Unfairphone with better specs and prices.
In Bangladesh, Nokia recently gained license to setup a production factory.
It is good , we need european phones
Why haven’t Africa and Latin America shown up? Blackberry is Canadian remember.
Imagine if Nokia is making a refreh Nokia 7600 that would bring my nostalgia to the roof my mum still has that phone
English: BLOCK
Memesters: BLOCC
Some random company: BLLOC
I didn’t know that wiko was a european brand.., I thought it just another (less known) chinese brand..,
Nokia had a great phone
Microsoft sucks
Just commenting here, on 2020, with my Realme phone.
A relatively big german Tech youtuber tested a Wiko phone once. The one he tested was crap with a weak battery. Gosh, that battery was a joke.
I want to watch his video again, seeing him raging on tech is fun.
Samsung is shit
LG lasts 👌 like Nokia did
I love Nokia and Fairphone! They’re amazing phone brands!
What’s with the Siemens-strategy? They are changing from "Made in China" to "Made in Germany". Yes, something like the Snapdragon-SoC still produce in China but Siemens try to produce so much they can in Germany.
Wait! I thought you said Nokia was bought out by an american company called Microsoft. So then how can it make a European comeback?
Anything British willspy
Reject China, Embrace Europe
Me: laughing with a Xiaomi and im from Europe
Hi! I am enjoying several of your knowledgable videos these days, researching about the "business cases" within (more) sustainable mobile phones, such as the Fairphone. Am curious whether you would want to create another video about such (relatively sucessful or given-up) start-ups in Europe (say Shiftphone in Germany, and Finnish Puzzlephone that did not get the crowdfunding right) and why it is so damn hard to enter the market or win (a decent) market share. Might be modularity comes in back-door despite the earlier "modular phones’ fail", as soon as more consumers (and designers) are convinced of better repairability and upgradability? Best regards, Ines
RIP Siemens
Just don’t use android or ios and people will buy them.
These are no more european brands
Ask the to look at India..fair phone particularly
Man I love your videos. They’re informative and what not but I’m just in love with the whole ambience with the lofi intro the lighting and the plants:D Always having a chill ass time here
Great video! However, I’d like to add that Fairphone has a competitor now: the German company Shift produces "Shiftphones" that are also modular and have better hardware than Fairphone, but they are much more expensive.
However, I have already decided that once my old phone stops working, I’ll buy one of these!
If European companies offer Sailfish, Linux and non Android phones, then that will be an advantage over other companies which only offer Android
Make nokia great again
Before this video was published and before I managed to go to known retailer shops last year, all the Nokia phones were sold in my country! And I live in a 3rd world country.
Nokia squandered the opportunity.
Xiamie is loaded with spy softwares
Liked the concept of Fairphone. Nokia is just a dying brand again. In India, Nokia is launching handsets which are competitively two to four years old.
I had a Wiko (Jerry) in 2017. Pretty solid. Actually survived from a car accident. Low price, reliable and decent photo too.
? Really
European phonemaker can’t peneratate Asia, cuz price/spec ratio is very critical, unless they replicate Xiaomi business model. We have been pampered by cheap good spec phone, that’s why LG , RIM, HTC and soon Sony lose.
Nokia can lead.
Fast forward 2021 and it seems Nokia has met the challenge with success.
LG in my opinion is a 4×4
Tough phone
If HMD doesn’t start to learn the market instead just keep Selling Nokia name, Nokia Mobile is just gonna vanished
Iki mobile a portuguese smartphone company and Manufactures um europe
where can I buy it?
Hey does any of you europeans or americans know the indian brand micromax !! Just a curious question .😊😊
Have they come back? This video didn’t age well.
Good news for consumers. More production mean more competition. Low price high features fones are available for consumers.
Sony went into the toilet
