Nokia Stores in the Philippines Under HMD Global in NCR, Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao

Last night - May 31, 2018, I received this question from TP Friend Ron Alfred Moreno on Facebook Messenger:

"Hi Mark! I'd like to ask which malls in the Philippines already have a Nokia Concept Store that's being run by HMD Global. I'm interested in buying the Nokia 7 Plus 2018 Android smartphone but I want to give a working demo unit a test run first before I make my final decision. I hope you can give a complete list for the benefit of other hardcore Filipino Nokia Fans. Thanks!"

Well, here's my answer:

Ron, as of today - June 1, 2018, HMD Global has Nokia Stores and Kiosks in these 13 malls located in NCR, Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.

NCR:
Robinsons Manila

Luzon:
SM City Tarlac
SM City Baguio
SM City Olongapo
SM City Sta. Rosa
SM City Dasmariñas
SM City Bacoor
SM City San Pablo
SM City Rosales
SM City Batangas
SM City Urdaneta

Visayas:
SM City IloIlo

Mindanao:
Gaisano Mall of Davao

Needless to say, 'Nokia Brand' is fairly new in our country and it has a lot of room to grow in terms of marketing reach and product distribution. Nonetheless, I'd like to believe that HMD Global Philippines is doing the best it can to make new Nokia handsets more accessible to Filipinos across the country.

In fact, according to our good friend - Mr. Shannon Mead, HMD Global Philippines Country Manager:

"HMD Global has always been committed to continuing the Nokia mobile story. The Philippine market, in particular, has always been close to our hearts as we have seen how the legacy of durability and reliability resonated with Filipinos throughout the years. More than the promise to bring quality and innovative mobile communication technology, we are dedicated to making Nokia phones more accessible to the market."

Clearly, things can only get better for Nokia Brand in our country. And I can confidently say that if HMD Global continues to churn out great products, it won't be long before we see Nokia back in the Top 5 list of best-selling handset brands here in the Philippines.

Oh, and on a slightly separate note: Ron, if you're open to skipping your personal hands-on of the product before deciding if you want to get it, you may also want to just visit argomall website to make your purchase. That online gadget store, which is an authorized retail channel of Nokia, will deliver the unit right to your doorstep for free and with 1-year parts and service warranty from HMD Global.
