Though Nokia sold their mobile division to the Redmond-based company, it seems like nothing can stop them to come back to the mobile market next year. Once the non-compete deal between Microsoft and Nokia ends, they will return to producing phones, but perhaps in co-operation with with someone else.

Right now, Nokia is planning for a brand licensing model of their own and putting much effort in finding human resources for making the upcoming machine. We say this because not long ago, Nokia was caught advertising many new jobs on LinkedIn network. Some of the positions are related to product development, while some of other are for engineers focusing on Android. This makes us think that Nokia will enter the Android smartphone field in the future.

On the other hand, we can see that Nokia wants to experiment something new besides regaining  the success they used to have. One example is Nokia N1, which is an Foxconn-made tablet coming with good specs and design. Furthermore, we all know that it is the very first device to sport a USB Type-C port, a feature that most smartphone brands are intending to equip their handsets with. Despite the limited markets for Nokia N1, it is still a great way to step into this new business area. Apart from the Nokia N1, their new projects include Z Launcher and Virtual Reality camera.

ZLauncher is a new interface for all Android phones of Nokia. Currently, it has just been released with a beta version. It is really easy to use ZLaunch. It has a quickly searching function that you can use only one finger to launch the program or content you need.

Nokia N1 runs on Nokia ZLauncher! 

As for the Nokia VR camera, actually it is named Nokia OZO and described as “the first commercially available virtual reality (VR) camera designed and built for professional content creators and the first in a planned portfolio of digital media solutions from Nokia Technologies, the company’s advanced technology and licensing business.” With this camera, you can capture stereoscopic 3D video in 360-degree panoramas. And if having VR headsets, you can watch videos with a feeling like you are in the middle of the action. Sounds great!

So, in conclusion, we are glad that Nokia is taking many moves to prepare for their return in 2016 by starting hiring many talents for the company and thinking of new interesting things. Hope a new Nokia machine will be coming soon!
