The company on Star Wars Day shared a movie-themed video on YouTube and other social platforms[1] where new Nokia phones including Nokia 3310 (2017)[2], Nokia 3[3], Nokia 5[4], and Nokia 6[5] are featured. Nokia received several queries from users on Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube on the availability details of these phones.
Replying to a query, Nokia Mobile's official Twitter handle[6] said, "We will be launching globally in the coming months (May-June). Stay tuned for updates!" Another Twitter user wanted to know whether the new Nokia phone will be unveiled in Brazil on which Nokia responded by saying, "We're aiming to release worldwide in Q2 2017 (April - June). We can't be more specific than this."

The company has shared an invite for Monday where it is expected to announce India launch plans for the Nokia 3310 (2017), Nokia 3, Nokia 5, and Nokia 5 phones.
