Nokia was once dominant over the cell phone market, nearing a 40% market share (compare that to today when the largest company has about 20% market share). Yet today, they're virtually nonexistent in the market. This video takes a look at the rise and fall of Nokia.

If you dig the old Nokia 3310 design, I recommend purchasing this: https://amzn.to/2Xmxef1 (affiliate)

If you want to buy one of their modern smartphones: https://amzn.to/2ZkRG1L (affiliate)

*To be clear, the Nokia company still exists today and is still fairly large, just much smaller than they once were and they no longer make Nokia branded phones.
