No Time To Die: Nokia’s first 5G phone will have a James Bond connection

Nokia’s first 5G phone will make an appearance in the next Bond film, No Time To Die, HMD Global has confirmed. Product placements are not uncommon but this may be the first time a brand is hyping up its soon-to-launch product before the release of the film, which by the way has been pushed back to November 12, 2020 due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) scare. HMD seems on schedule to launch the phone in question on March 19 during an on-ground event in London though.

The Nokia phone, which does not have a name yet, will feature in the 25th Bond film – which also happens to be Daniel Craig’s last appearance as James Bond. HMD will briefly tease the phone in a 90-second promo video set to air on March 8, it has confirmed, although it is yet to be seen if we’re going to get more than what we’ve already seen.
