Around this time last year, precisely in November, a report which was later confirmed by Nokia emerged that India’s largest online retailer Flipkart has partnered with Nokia to launch smart TVs that will carry the Nokia brand name. The smart TVs have no connection with HMD Global which only holds Nokia’s mobile phone license.

Apparently, Flipkart’s license extends beyond Nokia-branded smart TVs to non-phone products by the brand in India. The online retail giant has a shared couple of teaser posters which points to the imminent launch of Nokia-branded laptops in India.  A rumor had emerged before now concerning the Nokia laptop but there have been absolutely no details on that until now.

Since this confirmation is coming directly from Flipkart, we can expect it to be announced pretty soon, perhaps before the end of this month. Already, there is a landing page for the upcoming notebook on Flipkart’s website. The poster shows that the laptop will bear the name Nokia Purebook which bears semblance with the PureView lineup of Nokia smartphones. It is also teased to be ultralight in weight and offer an immersive user experience. It will also be a powerful laptop and we can predict that will be in terms of the processor.

Sadly, the landing page doesn’t say anything about an announcement or release date.

Despite being manufactured by Flipkart, the product is expected to meet the high expectations that consumers in India have for any product carrying the Nokia brand just as is done with HMD for their phones. The sad part is that the license is India-exclusive meaning the product may likely not be launched outside India. However, it is possible for it to emerge in Europe under a different ODM sometime in the near future.
