Nokia is still around?

If your career is, say, playing client-server ping-pong with JSON blobs, it can be really useful to look around at other industries and see what they're up to. The commonalities quickly give way to some interesting problems and perspectives.
So much information is out there - you just need to learn basic research techniques and be patient/curious. Learning to understand financial statements is also a big one.
Why am I doing this?
a) Curiosity. I want to understand how the world works.
b) I'm looking for some niche industry market that can be improved, in some plausible way. By the way: There's so much weird market segmentation going on in most other industries than software.
I don't think I could ever take software seriously from a company name like that. Are these issues really bugs, or are we being trolled?
I'm scared Android One is dying, Pixels are prohibitively expensive, and I'll have nowhere to jump ships once my current Nokia dies.
I got a new Moto G Pro from them this year. Very good phone for the price.
Indeed, Motorola sold their mobile network infrastructure business to Nokia.
Currently Nokia is focusing on mobile networks and patent licensing.
On a Mobile Network? You can bet with very high chance some part of the network are running on Nokia. Broadly speaking carriers like to use every vendor they have in part of their network just to have vendors competing on price.
Using DSL or Fttx Fibre at at home, you can bet somewhere along that fibre there is an Nokia or your DSL Modem is Nokia.
They might not be a household name, but they are still everywhere.
