Jolla arriving in India in partnership with Snapdeal
Jolla has announced that it will soon be entering the Indian market in partnership with Snapdeal. The Indian retailer has an exclusive deal with the Finnish company to sell the Jolla phone in India.
Jolla was formed in October 2011 by many of the ex-Nokia employees who worked on the MeeGo project.

The Jolla smartphone will be available exclusively on Snapdeal within a month.
