Nokia HMD Global announced three new smartphones on Saturday: the Nokia G22, C32, and C22. These are affordable phones that do not support fifth generation networks, and their prices range between 129 and 199 euros.

The most striking of the three new Nokia phones is Nokia G22Where repairability is key.

Individual parts for the G22 can be purchased via iFixit for at least five years, which cost an average of around €50 each. For example, a new battery costs €29.95 and you pay €24.95 for a new USB-C charging port.
