HMD is bringing its repairable phone initiative to the US with the Nokia G310, a $186 smartphone that’ll be available from T-Mobile and Metro by T-Mobile on August 24th. This is technically the third smartphone HMD has released with a design that makes it easier to replace commonly broken components like its battery and display, but its previous Nokia G22 and Nokia G42 were focused on European markets.

As with its previous repairable phones, HMD is partnering with iFixit to supply spare parts and repair guides for the G310.

    I hope Google dusts off Project Ara one day. That looked like a cool concept that’s only now being made into a reality to some extent.

      Project ara is an overkill. I mean look at those blocks its not going to last. It can easily damaged. What we need is a phone with screws not glue Fairphone is best you can get today but its not available globally.
