The Nokia 1 is a Nokia-branded budget Android Go smartphone, developed by HMD Global. It was launched at the Mobile World Congress 2018, in Barcelona, Spain on 25 February 2018.[4] This device, along with the Nokia 8 Sirocco, completes the lineup of Nokia-branded Android devices.[5] The phone also has separately sold removable back covers marketed as Xpress-on, a trade-name that first appeared on the Nokia 5110.[6] This was the first time the Xpress-on name was used since the Nokia Lumia 710 in 2012.[7][6]
