Akinjise said, consumers’ demand for QWERTY keyboard products was not that high, "Obviously, consumers need touch device most and Nokia will focus on customers' needs.”
Nokia official subsequently commented: "After showing Lumia 620, our product manager Akinjise, talked about many problems on Lumia products, including color, future product innovation, as well as different price positioning from low-end to luxury. Akinjise indicated that most of the demand comes from the full-touch smart phone. "
Although Nokia official comment is obscure, this may mean that the company in the future will no longer launch a full QWERTY keyboard phone.
