Amid the flurry of smartphone launches this week, HMD Global too teased its audience with a global event scheduled on April 8, 2021. The company, which is the organisation behind Nokia phones, usually unveils its new phones at the Mobile World Congress every year in Barcelona. The launch is scheduled to be on April 8, 2020 at 3:00 PM UK time. Indian audience can catch it live at 8:30 PM same day.
