doanster, 16 Jun 2024HMD is owned by Nokia. HMD is not owned by Nokia, Nokia have invested in HMD (as did Google, Qualcomm and Foxconn subsidiary FIH) but they signed an exclusive license for HMD to use the Nokia brand on phones and tablets. That license is expiring soon and there were also changes to the terms as HMD were not performing.
HMD purchased the remains of Microsoft Mobile after the acquisition of Nokia's Mobile division.

Si, 25 Apr 2024Yes it does support WiFi 6 I have this phone and the earlier xr20 here in the UK, learn to read!!!!It does and it doesn't... the chipset can connect to ax networks but does not have full WiFi 6 speeds. The 695 is pretty sluggish in WiFi performance in my experience, I get better speeds on the 480 for example. Notebookcheck.net reported similar in their testing.
I like the phone, nice features,seems very durable. Only problem with it is carriers in Canada won't activate the volte. That's a big feature that has to work on a smartphone. Voice calls aren't very good, best to use a app like WhatsApp,etc., to handle voice calls.

Not only Nokia phones but some other brands too. TLDR; the speclist is not up to date here.
