Nokia has released details of their earnings from Q4 2011, showing heavy losses of 1.07 billion Euro, contrasting to a profit of 745 million Euro in Q4 2010.
The overall number of Nokia smartphones also declined, with 19.6 million units sold during the last quarter of 2011, a decline in sales of 31 percent compared to the year before.
The positive aspect of the smartphone sales, though, has to be the number of Lumia devices sold, with Nokia stating that over 1 million devices have been sold to date.
Nokia also state their intention to introduce the Lumia range into new territories in the first half of 2012, including Latin America and China.
The number of Lumia devices sold is a good start for Nokia's relationship with the Windows Phone OS, but when compared to popular Android handsets and the Apple iPhone, there is still a long way to go.
The next important step for Nokia will be the follow up devices, and in particular the range that will be announced at the forthcoming Mobile World Congress, in Barcelona.
