Nokia said to be considering sale or merger as profits tank

Diversifying into consumer tech isn't really Nokia's area of strength - they tried getting into digital health with the Withings acquisition which they then did nothing with and ultimately sold back to the founders taking a massive bath in the process.

See also Ozo, the £50k 360 degree camera which they spent a fortune on and then shuttered. https://www.wired.co.uk/article/nokia-ozo-360-vr-camera-release-date-price

Neither of these types of market are big enough to save them anyway - they need to make 5G a success.

Better Coverage?

Will this mean that as an Orange customer I'll benefit from better coverage from T-Mobile basestations once they are merged? I used to have a company T-Mobile phone and it had better signal in places where my Orange phone didn't. Was thinking of jumping ship to Vodafone but might be worth staying put if this is the case?
