) for the employees of their long-distance transport division. Nokia smartphones and tablets sold to Deutsche Bahn will receive monthly security updates for four years to ensure a longer lifecycle. Those four years of Nokias receiving security updates were a key reason why HMD Global got the nod. Also, HMD Global is delivering a total of three software upgrades.

HMD Global was awarded the contract in a manufacturer-neutral tender. The Nokia smartphones and tablets are verified by Google “Android Enterprise Recommended” (AER) and are therefore recommended for professional use in companies, as emphasized by HMD Global.

Bahn AG and HMD Global have been working together for about two years. So far, the partnership has mostly referred to the exchange of individual devices, as HMD Global explains.
