Nokia 10 launch uncertain after HMD Global pulls out of MWC 2020

The MWC 2020 annual smartphone conference has evicted companies in recent days, with Sony, LG, Vivo and Royole pulling out over coronavirus fears. It seems that the last company is HMD Global, which owns the Nokia brand, so we may have to wait to see the Nokia 10. HMD Global announced the news of its cancellation on February 12, just 11 days before the start of his MWC 2020 conference, citing "recommendations from the relevant health authorities." It should be noted that in addition to canceling its conference, HMD Global has also stated that it will not be attending MWC 2020, so there will be no place where you can see and test its new phones. We expected the Nokia 10 to launch at MWC 2020 with some budget phones, but we'll probably have to wait longer for its arrival now. HMD Global said: "We are still planning to show what we have planned for our presence at MWC Barcelona and we will share details on how we will do it soon." As of this writing, we don't know if this means that HMD Global will host a press conference at the same time as its MWC keynote was to take place, or postpone it; the latter is even more plausible, since each phone company is likely to wait to see what the others are doing before hosting their CMM replacement events.

Is MWC 2020 canceled?

While some of the biggest players at MWC 2020 have withdrawn, some remain while Xiaomi and Huawei have confirmed that their press conferences and exhibitions will continue, and the likes of Oppo, Samsung and Honor n't know what to do. I haven't given up yet. However, with several media websites confirming that they will not be attending the event, and CMM itself is still waiting for a decision on the event's likelihood to go ahead. , we really don't know what will happen at the end of February. TechRadar will continue to bring you the latest MWC 39 news, and by that we mean we'll continue to report as each new business leaves the event.
