However, there is no word on what exactly the platform will cater to.Nokia was rumoured to make a comeback in the phone market, but there has been no-show so far. So, this is believed to be the most significant consumer hardware launch from Nokia ever since it sold the devices and services businesses to Microsoft in 2013. The upcoming product is reportedly coming from Nokia Technologies, who are also known to be working on licensing deals in order to get back into the phone business.This new announcement will also put Nokia in the increasing number of tech firms jumping onto the VR bandwagon. The list already includes Samsung, Microsoft, Facebook, among others. While Google, Samsung and Facebook are racing to be the first to launch their respective products, others like Microsoft have already managed to impress many with the HoloLens.
