HMD Global, the home of Nokia phones, announces the arrival of three Nokia smartphones, the Nokia G22, Nokia C32 and Nokia C22.

HMD Global also announces the first step in its journey to becoming the first major global smartphone provider to bring manufacturing to Europe.
Sanmeet Singh Kochhar, Vice President, India & MENA for HMD Global said “Nokia continues to put its customers first with the launch of three new devices in the UAE. The Nokia C22, Nokia C32 and Nokia G22 reflect our strong manufacturing lineage, exceptional craftsmanship and security updates. In addition, the long battery life, superior camera performance and durability of all three devices make them a competitive addition to the market, and we are excited for our fans to experience them when they hit the stores in April.”
Nokia G22 – the first Nokia smartphone with repairability at its core
The Nokia G22 is the first Nokia smartphone that was specifically built with repairability at its core, extending the typical lifespan of Nokia phones. You can quickly access repair manuals and reasonably priced components to replace a cracked display bent charging port, or flat battery on the Nokia G22 thanks to a partnership with the international repair community iFixit.
The recently launched G-series smartphone has a back cover made of 100% recycled plastic material. It also features OZO Playback technology that enhances bass and produces clearer sound. In addition, the phone includes a two-year upgrade plan for the Android operating system, three years of monthly security updates, and an extended warranty of three years, all of which come at no additional charge.
Nokia C32 comes with the highest image quality in the C-series yet
Packing a 50MP camera and stellar imaging algorithms, Nokia C32 brings advanced imaging to an even more affordable price point. It comes in a refined design with a toughened glass finish and elegant, straight sidewalls that give the C-series a premium feel. Arriving with the latest Android 13 right out of the box, Nokia C32 delivers the most personalised software to date for a modern smartphone experience.
Nokia C22 – a durability champion offering maximum value
The Nokia C22 has superior build quality compared to its competitors, as it has performed exceptionally well in strict free-fall tests. With IP52 splash and dust protection, toughened 2.5D display glass, and a sturdy metal chassis encased in a robust polycarbonate unibody design, the Nokia C22 is equipped to handle unexpected moments in daily life. Additionally, the phone’s improved dual 13MP camera incorporates powerful imaging algorithms, enabling the capture of detailed memories in any lighting conditions.
Adam Ferguson, Head of Product Marketing, HMD Global said “People value long-lasting, quality devices and they shouldn’t have to compromise on price to get it. The new Nokia G22 is purposefully built with a repairable design so you can keep it even longer, and with advanced imaging on Nokia C32 and improved durability on Nokia C22, we are bringing even more value to the C-series.”
