HMD Global — steward of the Nokia brand for phones — is all but shuttering its US operations, citing "a challenging geopolitical and economic environment". The company has offered a number of phones in the US in recent years, under its own brand as well as Nokia, and specialty branding like its Barbie Phone. Although the company won't confirm a complete exit from the US market, the ability to buy any phones from its US web site appears to have been disabled. HMD promises to honor "warranty coverage and service for existing products".
