HMD Global is now selling the Nokia T21 after introducing the tablet in September at IFA 2022. While the tablet remains unchanged from its debut over three months ago, HMD Global has decided to raise prices, with the Nokia T21 no longer starting at €219.

The Nokia T21 has arrived in Europe, three months on from its debut at IFA 2022. As we discussed at the time, HMD Global intended to offer the tablet in two versions, starting with a 64 GB/Wi-Fi model priced at €219. Additionally, the company hoped to release a 128 GB/LTE edition, although it did not confirm pricing for this SKU at IFA 2022.

For some reason, that information no longer applies; the Wi-Fi model no longer carries a €219 MSRP, nor does the 4G version also feature 128 GB of storage. Instead, HMD Global is offering the base model for €249, a 13% increase on its original MSRP. The 4G model comes with 64 GB of storage too for €279, with HMD Global charging another €30 for dual SIM connectivity. In fact, the tablet’s product page lacks any references to a 128 GB of storage SKU.

At launch, HMD Global will include a Flip Cover with orders, which it sells for €39.99 separately. The tablet itself ships with Android 12 and will receive two major Android updates, plus security update cover until 2025. Please see our launch article for full details about the Nokia T21 and what to expect from HMD Global’s latest budget tablet.
