From March 13-15, Techbox Philippines will offer a last-chance, limited-time only, knock-your-socks-off clearance sale of Nokia handsets.

“This is it - the last chance for Nokia enthusiasts to get the last line of smartphones with the Nokia brand on them,” said Angela Gutierrez, Business Unit Head for Techbox Philippines.

In the fourth quarter of 2014, Microsoft announced that it will discontinue the use of the ‘Nokia’ brand in its smartphones – a move that aims to simplify its marketing messages and bring all its smartphone offerings under one brand.

This marks an end of an era –Nokia, a brand synonymous with cellphones for more than two decades and one that pushed the advancement of mobile phones will no longer be present in the handset race.

“Nokia is one of the most popular mobile phone brands across the globe – especially for us who grew up with the brand. This is a momentous conclusion of a remarkable tech and lifestyle story. Our event will not just be a sale – it’s a tribute to the phone we’ve known and loved since we were kids,” said Angela. “This is the best – and last – time to own a Nokia,” she added.
