Nokia continues to loose money in Q2 2012

Nokia released its Q2 2012 Interim Report report for the year's second quarter today, revealing an operating loss of €826 million ($1.02 billion) despite a slight increase in net sales. Nokia also announced that four million Lumia devices have been sold during the quarter.

The company's report also reveals it had net sales of €7.5 billion ($9.2 billion), up from €7.4 billion ($9.08 billion) in the previous quarter. Nokia increased its overall sales of smartphones both quarter-over-quarter and year-over-year. However the company had a positive year-over-year change in its net sales for devices and services only in North America, with increases of 45 percent year-over-year and 38 percent quarter-over-quarter for the continent.

Nokia's CEO Stephen Elop said: "Nokia is taking action to manage through this transition period. While Q2 was a difficult quarter, Nokia employees are demonstrating their determination to strengthen our competitiveness, improve our operating model and carefully manage our financial resources."

Nokia continued to spend its cash reserves, but at a much slower rate than analysts had expected. The company now has €4.2 billion ($5.16 billion) in net cash, a decrease from last quarter's €4.87 billion ($5.98 billion). According to CNBC, market analysts had expected Nokia's cash reserves to fall to €3.7 billion. Nokia expects its third quarter to be similar to its second quarter.

Starting this week, you can get a Lumia 900 via its exclusive wireless carrier AT&T in the US at $49.99, by signing a two year contract. That is a 50 percent price cut for the Windows Phone 7.5-powered smartphone.

The announcement was made on Nokia's blog, along with the announcement that the previously revealed pink version of the Lumia 900 is now also available for sale at AT&T stores.

The Lumia 900 launched in April for $99.99, with AT&T saying that demand for the phone had exceeded its expectations. The phone has also received positive reviews.

Reuters reported that, according to a quote from a Nokia spokesperson, it is not unusual to cut the price of a smartphone at this stage of a product's life, and is part of the ongoing lifecycle management, which is jointly done between Nokia and carrier customers.

Jolla signs agreement with D.Phone, China’s largest phone retailer

Jolla, a small startup company founded by former Nokia employees who worked on Maemo/MeeGo and who want to bring their own device to market, announced its first major deal today, a distribution agreement with China's largest mobile phone retaile, the D.Phone Group, that has more than 2,000 retail stores in the country.
According to this press release, the D.Phone Group will "start sales and distribution of Jolla smartphones in China". The company's CEO, Donhai Liu said in the press release: "We see great potential for Jolla as a new player in the Chinese smartphone market with Jolla’s fresh and unique user experience.
