Nokia Australia to answer defect mobile claims

The NSW department of Fair Trading has begun preliminary investigations into allegations that Nokia Australia has been selling mobile handsets with faulty screens.

"The Department of Fair Trading is aware of some disquiet among consumers as a result of suggestions that Nokia LCD display panels may be faulty," said Wayne Watson speaking on behalf Chris Hanlon, Fair Trading's departmental director of compliance and standards.

"We have been looking into it to identify what the problems are and we'll be meeting with representatives of Nokia early next week."

As reported exclusively by ZDNet Australia, Nokia has long been battling allegations that the LCD display panel incorporated into its phones carries inherent design faults, causing the screen to fail prematurely.
