The new Nokia smartphone can be repaired in 5 minutes with your own hands

Nokia has released the Nokia G22 and promises that it will be easier to fix than other smartphones. What's more, you can do it yourself at home.

Nokia tried to make common failures such as replacing a broken screen, port or battery as easy as possible to repair in a new smartphone. The company is also partnering with iFixit to produce a Nokia G22 home repair kit.

To highlight the ease of repair, HMD Product Manager successfully replaced the battery in the Nokia G22 during a press briefing. The whole process took about five minutes. A similar battery change on a previous-generation HMD phone or many competing smartphones would take about 90 minutes, he said. “It will probably take you 20 minutes to repair the Nokia G22 screen,” says the manager.

Prices for the novelty start at £149.99.
