Accessibility

Open connections

We believe everyone should be able to connect to the people and things that matter. This is why accessibility is a central consideration for everything we do.

Over 600 million people worldwide have a registered disability, in addition to the people who need improved accessibility because of their vision, hearing, speech, mobility, cognition, or simply their age.

And just about everyone can benefit from ideas that make handsets easier and safer to use – for instance when people are multi-tasking, or in challenging situations.

Bringing the world to everyone

We have a long and proud history of enabling the freedom of wireless communications. We believe accessibility is an integral part of the design of our handsets and tools.

Practical innovations: a short history

Introduced in 1996, the first Nokia Communicator offered new ways to communicate for people who are hard of hearing. Soon after, the Nokia LPS-1 Inductive Loopset was introduced, which helped people who use telecoil-equipped hearing aids to use a mobile phone without interference.
