			<content:encoded><![CDATA[   <p class="hugin"><em class="hugin">Espoo, Finland</em> - Nokia today confirmed that the <a class="hugin" href="http://europe.nokia.com/pureview" >Nokia 808 PureView</a> will start rolling out in select markets in May. The Nokia 808 PureView is the first smartphone to feature Nokia's award-winning <a class="hugin" href="http://press.nokia.com/wp-content/uploads/mediaplugin/doc/nokia-808-pureview-whitepaper.pdf" >PureView technology</a>. PureView represents Nokia's highest level smartphone imaging experiences, bringing together high-performance sensors, exclusive Carl Zeiss optics, and Nokia developed imaging algorithms. The first markets to begin selling the Nokia 808 PureView include Russia and India.</p> <p class="hugin">Since its launch in February, the Nokia 808 PureView has received <img alt="Nokia 808 PureView" class="hugin" height="134" src="https://hugin.info/3009/I/1607840/20944.jpg" style="float:right;" title="Nokia 808 PureView" width="336"></img>multiple awards, including <a class="hugin" href="http://www.globalmobileawards.com/winners2012.php#cat_id23b" >Best Mobile Device</a> at Mobile World Congress 2012, as well as an award for <a class="hugin" href="http://www.tipa.com/english/award-details.php?iId=3167&amp;sAward=Best%20Imaging+Innovation" >Best Imaging Innovation</a> for 2012 from the Technical Image Press Association (TIPA).</p> <p class="hugin">"PureView has completely raised the bar on imaging performance for the whole smartphone industry - and Nokia is not stopping here," said Jo Harlow, Head of Smart Devices at Nokia. "We're going to carry on developing PureView for our future smartphones in ways that will again revolutionize the imaging experience."</p> <p class="hugin">The Nokia 808 PureView features a large, high-resolution 41 megapixel sensor with high-performance Carl Zeiss optics and new pixel oversampling technology. At standard resolutions (2/3, 5 and 8 megapixels) this means the ability to zoom without loss of clarity and capture seven pixels of information, condensing into one pixel for the sharpest images imaginable. At high-resolution (38 megapixels maximum) it means the ability to capture an image, then zoom, reframe, crop and resize afterwards to expose previously unseen levels of details. With superior low-light performance and the ability to save in compact file sizes for sharing in email, MMS, and on social networks, the Nokia 808 PureView makes it possible for anyone to capture professional looking images in any conditions.</p> <p class="hugin">In addition to superior still imaging technology, the Nokia 808 PureView also includes full HD 1080p video recording and playback with 4X lossless zoom and the world's first use of Nokia Rich Recording. &nbsp;Rich Recording enables audio recording at CD-like levels of quality, previously only possible with external microphones. The Nokia 808 PureView also features exclusive Dolby Headphone technology, transforming stereo content into a personal surround sound experience over any headphones and Dolby Digital Plus for 5.1 channel surround sound playback.</p> <p class="hugin">Check out our <a class="hugin" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/nokiaofficial/collections/72157629545720673/" >Nokia 808 PureView photo gallery</a>.</p> <p class="hugin"><a class="hugin" href="http://www.nokia.com/about-nokia" >About Nokia</a><br class="hugin" />Nokia is a global leader in mobile communications whose products have become an integral part of the lives of people around the world.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[   <p class="hugin"><strong class="hugin">- Nokia Browser 2.0 delivers enhanced speeds and a new user interface for a faster, better way to explore the web</strong><br class="hugin" /><strong class="hugin">- Powered by cloud-based servers, it delivers accelerated browsing and reduces data consumption by up to 90%, without compromising the internet experience</strong><br class="hugin" /><strong class="hugin">- Web apps from the expanding catalog are easier than ever to explore and install right in the browser</strong></p>  <p class="hugin">Espoo, Finland - Nokia has today announced the availability of Nokia Browser 2.0, a major update dedicated to Nokia Series 40 devices. The new version reduces data consumption by up to 90%, meaning that consumers can enjoy faster and cheaper internet access. Web sites load up to three times faster in comparison to devices without cloud-accelerated browsing and consumers will also benefit from a number of other enhanced capabilities.</p>  <p class="hugin">From the first look, consumers are easily able to discover new web content and enjoy one-click access to top, local sites via the Nokia Browser's inviting and intuitive start page. We have optimized the browser to enable users to easily stay connected with friends and family at the touch of a button as well as to share files and links across social networks. The new and improved Download Manager helps consumers to manage external content easily, saving music, video or pictures on a memory card, while surfing the internet.</p>  <p class="hugin">The browser includes a revamped, modern user experience that makes it simple to find, install and use interesting web apps that offer a richer, more desktop-like internet experience. Launched in mid-2011, the Nokia Browser is the first browser of its kind to support web apps, and now boasts a catalogue of more than 10,000 of the latest apps. Several publishers have experienced over a million downloads in a matter of months, demonstrating strong consumer demand.</p> <p class="hugin">With this update, developers will find new monetization capabilities, more extensive user interface options for their web apps and productivity improvements for Nokia Web Tools so they can continue delivering engaging, connected experiences to the 'Next Billion' consumers.</p> <p class="hugin">The update supports all forms of Series 40: Touch, QWERTY and Non-Touch, including the&nbsp;<a class="hugin" href="http://press.nokia.com/2012/02/27/nokia-expands-its-asha-range-with-smarter-feature-phones-that-improve-ways-to-work-learn-and-play/" >Nokia Asha</a>&nbsp;range, as well as popular devices such as the Nokia C3-00, Nokia C2-03 and Nokia X3-02. The update will be pre-loaded on some current and all future Nokia Series 40 devices, while for existing users the update arrives as a free, optional over-the-air download. New users can download it from the&nbsp;<a class="hugin" href="http://store.ovi.com/content/51924" >Nokia Store</a>. The browser is available in 87 languages in over 200 countries and territories.<br class="hugin" />Nokia Browser 2.0 makes use of cloud-based servers which adapt standard web pages so that they perform better on Nokia Series 40 devices. Since web pages are compressed and cached in the cloud, end users can access web sites in a manner which is faster and requires significantly less data to be sent over their mobile network. For pay-per-use contracts this will result in more cost-effective browsing, while users on an operator data plan will be able to do more web surfing without exceeding their monthly usage limits.</p>  <p class="hugin">"With our new version, we've created a newer, faster, better browsing experience. As many consumers around the world will experience the internet for the first time through a mobile phone, this is a great step towards our goal to connect the 'Next Billion'," explains Dieter May, senior vice president of mobile phones services, Nokia.</p> <p class="hugin"><strong class="hugin">New in the Nokia Browser 2.0</strong></p>  <p class="hugin"><strong class="hugin">1.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[  <p class="hugin"><strong class="hugin">Reaffirming long-term commitment to the country and the company's strategy to connect the next billion to information and the Internet</strong></p> <p class="hugin">Bac Ninh, Vietnam - In an official ceremony today, Nokia kicked-off the development of its manufacturing facility in Vietnam, to serve the growing demand for mobile phones all over the world. The event featured Secretary of the Central Party Committee, Vice President of the National Assembly of Vietnam, Madam Nguyen Thi Kim Ngan; Minister of the Ministry of Science and Technology Vietnam, Mr. Nguyen Quan; Ambassador of Finland to Vietnam, Kimmo Lähdevirta; and high ranking officials from Central authorities and Bac Ninh province amongst more than 200 others. </p> <p class="hugin">Located in Vietnam-Singapore Industrial Park (VSIP) in Bac Ninh province, the Nokia Vietnam manufacturing facility is being developed on an area of 17 hectares. Nokia expects to start the operations of this factory in early 2013.&nbsp; </p> <p class="hugin">Today's event is one step further in reaffirming Nokia's long term commitment to the Vietnam market, under Nokia's strategy to connect the next billion people to information and the Internet.</p> <p class="hugin">Nokia's position in high growth economies is strong, and mobile phones play a strategic role. The new manufacturing site is being established to meet the growth in demand for these phones, as well as to help Nokia to deliver a contemporary mobile experience to the next billion consumers all over the world. </p> <p class="hugin">"We highly appreciate Nokia's efforts in making this commitment a reality, which contributes to the growth of foreign investment in Vietnam in general and in Bac Ninh in particular. We also hope this will bring up not only economic value, but also other social benefits for the country like job creation and community knowledge enhancement on information technology alike," said Mr. Nguyen Nhân Chien, President of People's Committee of Bac Ninh province. </p> <p class="hugin">Mary McDowell, Executive Vice President, Mobile Phones, Nokia, said: "Thanks to the valued support from the Vietnamese government, our manufacturing program in Vietnam has been progressing well. The new Nokia manufacturing plant will produce and provide new devices for compelling and affordable, localized mobile experiences, particularly in the growth markets.</p> <p class="hugin">"Nokia is also committed to extending our positive reputation as an employer and as a corporate citizen. We expect to attract competent and energetic employees from the local skilled labor force. And in turn, employees at our new factory can expect a state-of-the-art facility and a positive, modern working environment with high professional and ethical standards," continued McDowell.&nbsp; </p> <p class="hugin">Nokia is making progress in its strategy to connect the next billion. The company has launched an aspirational portfolio of devices that include fresh, contemporary design and form factors that are optimized for great experiences, such as social, entertainment, and messaging, and services that extend the value proposition to consumers. </p> <p class="hugin">Nokia first opened its doors in Vietnam in 1996 and, like many successful multinationals, saw Vietnam as a growing market with opportunity and potential. In light of the respect Nokia has wherever it operates, the company has worked hard to quickly become part of the Vietnamese community. </p> <p class="hugin">Nokia currently operates two representative offices in Vietnam: one in Ho Chi Minh City and the other in Hanoi. These offices carry out marketing and promotion activities for Nokia's handset business. In 2011, Nokia established a branch office in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, increasing its footprint within the IndoChina region.</p> <p class="hugin">In November, 2011, Nokia established a new company, Nokia (Vietnam) LLC, to build and operate the new Vietnam manufacturing facility.</p> <p class="hugin"><strong class="hugin"><a class="hugin" href="http://www.nokia.com/about-nokia" >About Nokia</a></strong><br class="hugin" /> Nokia is a global leader in mobile communications whose products have become an integral part of the lives of people around the world.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[  <p class="hugin">Nokia Corporation<br class="hugin" /> Stock exchange release<br class="hugin" /> April 19, 2012 at 13.05 (CET+1)</p> <p class="hugin">Espoo, Finland - Today Nokia announced that Colin Giles, executive vice president of sales and a member of the Nokia Leadership Team, will step down from his position and the Nokia Leadership Team effective June 30, 2012. After many years of travel, Giles has decided to leave the company to be closer to his family.</p> <p class="hugin">With Giles departure, Nokia will restructure the sales organization by reducing a layer of sales management to ensure greater customer focus and providing senior leaders greater visibility into market dynamics. Effective immediately, Nokia's four regional senior vice presidents and the lead of sales operations will report directly to Niklas Savander, executive vice president of markets.</p> <p class="hugin">The regional senior vice presidents include Chris Weber for the Americas; Shiv Shivakumar for India, Middle East and Africa; Olivier Puech for Asia Pacific and Victor Saeijs for Europe and Eurasia.</p> <p class="hugin">"Our structure is focused on ensuring that the sales organization is aligned with local customer requirements, market-by-market competitive issues and country-specific sales and marketing tactics," said Savander. "As a result of reducing layers, we can increase the speed at which we execute sales activities and improve the collaboration between our business groups and our team on the ground."</p> <p class="hugin">Giles joined Nokia in 1992 and has served in a number of marketing and sales roles across the company. Giles was instrumental in building Nokia's presence in Asia and China and expanded Nokia's sales and marketing efforts in many regions around the world. Most recently he led the global sales organization during Nokia's transition. Colin will stay with Nokia until June 30, 2012, to help establish the new structure.</p> <p class="hugin">"Colin's leadership has been very valuable as we shifted Nokia's strategy and aligned the sales organization around our new product families, Lumia and Asha," said Stephen Elop, president and CEO. "We appreciate the commitment that Colin has demonstrated to Nokia over the years, and we wish him much success as he takes the next step in his career."</p> <p class="hugin"><a class="hugin" href="http://www.nokia.com/about-nokia" >About Nokia</a><br class="hugin" /> Nokia is a global leader in mobile communications whose products have become an integral part of the lives of people around the world.

The actual sales results have been mixed. We exceeded expectations in markets including the United States, but establishing momentum in certain markets including the UK has been more challenging. </em></p> <p class="hugin"><em class="hugin">At the same time, the lower price tiers of our industry are undergoing a structural change, and traditional feature phones are challenged by full touch devices. As a result we are taking deliberate measures to continue to renew our Series 40 platform, and we plan to strengthen our line-up in Q2 2012. We are making investments in our Mobile Phones business unit aimed at addressing the gaps in our offering.</em></p> <p class="hugin"><em class="hugin">We have a clear sense of urgency to move our strategy forward even faster. We are pursuing step function changes by having launched the Lumia 610 and Lumia 900 in the first quarter, expanding market coverage, increasing advertising, introducing key customer-requested features and broadening our most successful go-to-market activities. At the same time, we have focused our efforts in the low-end of smartphones and feature phone asset to drive improved business results and conserve cash.</em></p> <p class="hugin"><em class="hugin">We are confident in our strategy and focused on responding urgently in the short term and creating value for our shareholders in the long term."</em></p> <p class="hugin"><strong class="hugin">SUMMARY FINANCIAL INFORMATION</strong></p> <p class="hugin">The following table sets forth selective line items for the periods indicated, as well as the year-on-year and sequential growth rates.</p>                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="hugin" style="border-collapse:collapse;

This outlook reflects that the first quarter 2012 benefit related to lower warranty costs is expected to be non-recurring, as well as expectations regarding a number of factors including:<br class="hugin" />- competitive industry dynamics continuing to negatively affect the Smart Devices and Mobile Phones business units; <br class="hugin" />- timing, ramp-up, and consumer demand related to new products; and<br class="hugin" />- the macroeconomic environment. </p> <p class="hugin">- Nokia continues to target to reduce Devices &amp; Services non-IFRS operating expenses by more than EUR 1 billion for the full year 2013, compared to the full year 2010 Devices &amp; Services non-IFRS operating expenses of EUR 5.35 billion. Nokia plans to accelerate and substantially deepen Devices &amp; Services cost savings, consistent with its strategic focus. Nokia will share further details as quickly as possible.<br class="hugin" />- Nokia and Nokia Siemens Networks expect Nokia Siemens Networks non-IFRS operating margin to clearly improve in the second quarter 2012 compared to the first quarter 2012 level of negative 5.0%. Due to the nature of the restructuring program as well as prevailing uncertain macroeconomic conditions, the timing of improvements in profitability is uncertain and therefore Nokia Siemens Networks' non-IFRS operating margin in 2012 is expected to be volatile. <br class="hugin" />- Nokia Siemens Networks continues to target to reduce its non-IFRS annualized operating expenses and production overheads by EUR 1 billion by the end of 2013, compared to the end of 2011.</p> <p class="hugin"><strong class="hugin">FIRST QUARTER 2012 FINANCIAL AND OPERATING DISCUSSION</strong></p> <p class="hugin"><strong class="hugin">NOKIA GROUP</strong></p> <p class="hugin"><em class="hugin">We adopted our current operational structure during 2011 and have three businesses: Devices &amp; Services, Location &amp; Commerce and Nokia Siemens Networks and four operating and reportable segments: Smart Devices and Mobile Phones within Devices &amp; Services, Location &amp; Commerce and Nokia Siemens&nbsp; Networks.

Services as well as operating losses, capital expenditure and cash outflows related to restructuring, partially offset by a positive contribution from Nokia Siemens Networks and the receipt of a quarterly platform support payment from Microsoft.</p> <p class="hugin">Sequentially, Devices &amp; Services net working capital changes in the first quarter 2012 had a negative impact on net cash and other liquid assets. The working capital change was primarily due to accounts payable balances declining more than the combined declines in accounts receivable and inventory balances. The end-of-quarter days of sales outstanding was higher sequentially resulting from a lower proportion of net sales in regions with faster payment terms, including India and China. The end-of-quarter days of sales in inventory was higher sequentially resulting from the ramp-up of Lumia devices. Unless there are similar fluctuations in the composition of Devices &amp; Services net sales and inventory, we expect the unfavorable impact of Devices &amp; Services working capital changes in the first quarter 2012 to be mostly non-recurring.&nbsp; We are focused on improving Devices &amp; Services working capital performance, and we see opportunities to improve inventory, accounts payable and accounts receivable management over the remainder of 2012.</p> <p class="hugin">In the first quarter 2012, Nokia Siemens Networks' contribution to net cash from operating activities was approximately EUR 410 million. This was primarily driven by working capital improvements, partially offset by operating losses.&nbsp; In the first quarter 2012, Nokia Siemens Networks' working capital performance improved by approximately EUR 540 million, primarily related to significantly improved accounts receivables collection as well as higher advanced payments from customers.</p> <p class="hugin">Our agreement with Microsoft includes platform support payments from Microsoft to us as well as software royalty payments from us to Microsoft.&nbsp; In the first quarter 2012, we received a quarterly platform support payment of USD 250 million (approximately EUR 189 million).&nbsp; We have a competitive software royalty structure, which includes minimum software royalty commitments. Over the life of the agreement, both the platform support payments and the minimum software royalty commitments are expected to measure in the billions of US Dollars. The total amount of the platform support payments is expected to slightly exceed the total amount of the minimum software royalty commitments.</p> <p class="hugin"><strong class="hugin">DEVICES &amp;

Services volumes in the first quarter 2012 was driven by significantly lower volumes in both Mobile Phones and Smart Devices volumes as discussed below. </p> <p class="hugin">The sequential decline in our total Devices &amp; Services volumes in the first quarter 2012 was driven by significantly lower Mobile Phones volumes and Smart Device volumes, including lower seasonal demand for our devices, as discussed below.</p> <p class="hugin">During the first quarter 2012, our overall channel inventory increased on a sequential basis. We ended the first quarter 2012 around the high end of our normal 4 to 6 week channel inventory range, but on an absolute unit basis, channel inventories declined sequentially.</p> <p class="hugin"><u class="hugin">Average Selling Price<br class="hugin" /></u>On a year-on-year basis, the overall decrease in our Devices &amp; Services ASP in the first quarter 2012 was driven primarily by the lower ASP in Mobile Phones, a higher proportion of Mobile Phones sales and the negative impact from foreign currency hedging, partially offset by higher IPR royalty income.</p> <p class="hugin">On a sequential basis, the overall decrease in our Devices &amp; Services ASP in the first quarter 2012 was driven primarily by a product mix shift towards Mobile Phones and the negative impact from foreign currency hedging, partially offset by a positive impact from the depreciation of the Euro against certain currencies.</p> <p class="hugin"><u class="hugin">Gross Margin<br class="hugin" /></u>On a year-on-year basis, the decline in our Devices &amp; Services non-IFRS gross margin in the first quarter 2012 was driven primarily by the significant gross margin decline in Smart Devices and, to a much lesser extent, in Mobile Phones, partially offset by higher IPR royalty income.</p> <p class="hugin">On a sequential basis, the decline in our Devices &amp; Services non-IFRS gross margin in the first quarter 2012 was driven primarily by gross margin declines in both Smart Devices and Mobiles Phones, partially offset by a positive impact from lower warranty costs, which is expected to be non-recurring, and higher IPR royalty income.</p> <p class="hugin"><u class="hugin">Operating Expenses<br class="hugin" /></u>Devices &amp; Services non-IFRS operating expenses decreased 15% year-on-year and 11% sequentially in the first quarter 2012. On both a year-on-year and sequential basis, operating expenses related to Mobile Phones increased 22% and 10%, respectively, in the first quarter 2012, whereas operating expenses related to Smart Devices decreased 33% and 24%, respectively, in the first quarter 2012. These year-on-year and sequential changes resulted, in addition to the factors described below, from the proportionate allocation of operating expenses being impacted by the relative mix of sales and gross profit performance between Mobile Phones and Smart Devices. This resulted in higher and lower relative allocations to Mobile Phones and Smart Devices, respectively. In addition, both the year-on-year and sequential decline in Smart Devices was driven by the cost savings actions related to our Symbian and MeeGo activities.</p> <p class="hugin">Devices &amp; Services non-IFRS research and development expenses decreased 22% year-on-year in the first quarter 2012. On a sequential basis, Devices &amp; Services non-IFRS research and development expenses decreased 11% in the first quarter 2012. Both the year-on-year and sequential declines were primarily due to a reduction in Symbian and MeeGo related costs as well as ongoing cost controls. This was partially offset by an increase in Mobile Phones research and development expenses primarily due to investments in product development to bring new innovations to the market in support of our strategy to bring the internet and information to the next billion.</p> <p class="hugin">Devices &amp; Services non-IFRS sales and marketing expenses decreased 8% year-on-year in the first quarter 2012. On a sequential basis, Devices &amp; Services non-IFRS sales and marketing expenses decreased 16% in the first quarter 2012. Year-on-year, marketing expenses declined primarily due to lower marketing expenditure on Symbian, partially offset by higher marketing expenditure on Lumia. Sequentially, marketing expenses declined primarily due to lower marketing expenditure on MeeGo and Symbian.</p> <p class="hugin">Devices &amp; Services non-IFRS administrative and general expenses decreased 5% year-on-year in the first quarter 2012 as near-term cost controls were partially offset by shared function cost categorization. On a sequential basis, Devices &amp; Services non-IFRS administrative and general expenses increased 26% in the first quarter 2012 due to shared function cost categorization.</p> <p class="hugin">In the first quarter 2012, Devices &amp; Services non-IFRS other income and expense had a negative year-on-year and sequential impact on profitability. Reported other income and expense was significantly adversely impacted in the first quarter 2012 primarily as a result of restructuring-related expenses discussed below, which were recognized in Devices &amp; Services Other.</p> <p class="hugin"><u class="hugin">Cost Reduction Activities and Planned Operational Adjustments<br class="hugin" /></u>We continue to target to reduce our Devices &amp; Services non-IFRS operating expenses by more than EUR 1 billion for the full year 2013, compared to the full year 2010 Devices &amp; Services non-IFRS operating expenses of EUR 5.35 billion. We plan to accelerate and substantially deepen Devices &amp; Services cost savings, consistent with our strategic focus. Nokia will share further details as quickly as possible.</p> <p class="hugin">During the first quarter 2012, Devices &amp; Services recognized net charges of EUR 91 million related to restructuring activities. As of the end of the first quarter 2012, we had recognized cumulative charges of EUR 888 million related to restructuring activities. </p> <p class="hugin">While the total extent of the restructuring activities is still to be determined, we currently anticipate cumulative charges in Devices &amp; Services of around EUR 900 million before the end of 2012 in relation to our previously announced cost reduction target of more than EUR 1 billion. We also believe total cash outflows related to our Devices &amp; Services restructuring activities will be below the level of the cumulative charges related to these restructuring activities.</p> <p class="hugin"><strong class="hugin">SMART DEVICES</strong></p> <p class="hugin">The following table sets forth a summary of the results for our Smart Devices business unit for the periods indicated, as well as the year-on-year and sequential growth rates.</p>                                                               <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="hugin" style="border-collapse:collapse;

We also believe total cumulative cash outflows related to the Nokia Siemens Networks restructuring activities will be around the same level as the cumulative charges related to these restructuring activities. </p> <p class="hugin">Cash preservation is a clear priority at Nokia Siemens Networks, and the company intends to be self-funding in all aspects of its operations.&nbsp; Nokia Siemens Networks' restructuring program, combined with the company's focus on improving its financial performance, is designed to enable the company to end 2012 with higher net cash than at the end of 2011.</p> <p class="hugin"><strong class="hugin">FIRST QUARTER 2012 OPERATING HIGHLIGHTS</strong></p> <p class="hugin"><strong class="hugin">NOKIA OPERATING HIGHLIGHTS<br class="hugin" /></strong>- Nokia announced planned changes at its factories in Komarom in Hungary, Reynosa in Mexico and Salo in Finland.
