The Nokia G22 is HMD's first smartphone that you can repair with ease, and iFixit's tools at home - here's what you need to know.
. But then again, we have seen do-it-yourself repair programs before from companies including Apple, Google, and Samsung.
It all works perfectly. It’s super affordable to replace the parts, too, with the battery and display retailing for €20 and €50, respectively. You’ll have to order the iFixit tools and follow the online instructions. But the kit will then be good for other repairs.It only took me about 5 minutes to replace the battery because it wasn’t my phone, and I wasn’t worried I’d break it. In real life, you’d be much more careful and probably get the job done in 10 or 15 minutes.
It’s not about the hardware. HMD is bringing to this price point two years of Android OS upgrades and three years of monthly security updates. These are perks you get from more expensive devices. Perks that help you hang on to the phone for multiple years. Moreover, HMD will offer Nokia G22 buyers an extended three-year warranty at no cost.The repairability aspect is only one aspect of HMD’s strategy.
