Emerging markets bring loyal users, which stick to the brand of the first phone which put them in touch with mobile technology. The only problem is that services also play a strong role in turning the audience into a truly devoted one.

Among the most popular Nokia phones on emerging markets, there is 1202, a follow-up to Nokia’s top-selling 1200 model. The device sells for little more than USD 30, but there are also more evolved handsets with email included, sold for around USD 45.
