I read the title a few times to make sure. This is really weird.

By the way, I think Nokia should rebrand. Everyone when he hears "Nokia" thinks of either a big old phone or a big old phone that is an indestructible weapon of mass destruction (which is for some reason an Internet meme even though old Nokia phones are pretty darn breakable).

When I hear "Nokia" I think of "the absolutely best build phones with the best design and best hardware and software features of the pre-smartphone era". So I don't think they should rebrand, even though they no longer make the best build phones at all. Not sure why you say "big", since almost every Nokia is much smaller than any smartphone. I currently use a Nokia 5310 and it's thinner, shorter, slimmer and lighter than any smartphone ever made. Not saying it's a better phone, but it's definitely not "big".

Nokia used to be *THE* one and only manufacturer that made great phones, but times changed, obviously, and they could no longer do what they did best. Now it's more about software, and back in the days when all you needed was phoning, texting, and snake, software wasn't a huge challenge.

Pre-smartphone era is the key. They're associated with old times.
