I thought HMD Global was a Chinese company, that had “rented” the brand “Nokia” from the actual Nokia company?

Edit: I am remembering completely wrong

I I recall well, while Finnish, most of the R&D, and of course the whole manufacturing process, was done in China. That how they got their "Chinese" reputation.

I think it is undeserved, but it is also true that their smartphone got some annoying problems, like a very fragile usb-c port on my now defunct Nokia 8.1.
