Nokia has kinda, sorta asserted that it’s not returning to the smartphone business, in the wake of persistent reports that it’s been eyeing a comeback. Nokia “currently has no plans to manufacture or sell consumer handsets,” reads a company statement. “The reports are false, and include comments incorrectly attributed to a Nokia Networks executive.” Nokia was planning to planning to engage a manufacturing facility in China, possibly Foxconn, to produce a Nokia-branded smartphone according to its design specs, according to the reports.
