Nokia Mobile may be planning to launch its next KaiOS smart feature phone. NokiaPowerUser found that the Nokia N139DL has passed GCF certification and can be listed on the European market soon. The Nokia N139DL has appeared on the official WiFi certification website earlier. At that time, we learned that the phone will run on the KaiOS 3.0. The phone supports 4G networks and 2.4GHz wireless networks.
After passing the GCF certification, HMD
may launch the Nokia N139D at any time for the global market. By the way, there
are five Nokia phones with KaiOS onboard. They are the Nokia 6300 4G, Nokia
2720 Flip, Nokia 800 Tough, Nokia 8000 4G, and Nokia 8110 4G. Thus, the Nokia
N139DL will be Nokia’s sixth KaiOS smartphone.
If you are not familiar with this system,
then you should know that recently it got a RedDot award in the Interface &
User Experience category. This system is developed not by Nokia itself but by
KaiOS Technologies. The latter has come a long way since its launch in 2017.
And though most users own smartphones, there are still over 1 billion feature
phone users today. So KaiOS can still remain in the market for a long time.
As IDC reported, this company has managed
to launch more than 140 models. During these years, it shipped over 156 million
feature phones. Their total value exceeds US$ 3.8 billion. In the feature phone
market, their market share is 8%.
