I'm sure it'll be overpriced or underspeced.

    I think these are the specs: 6.7 inch 1080+ Amoled with 120hz. SD 7s Gen2 (this is SD 6 Gen2 by the way). 6/8+128/256GB LPDDR4X/5 UFS3.0. 108mp main sensor with OIS. 5000mah 33 watts USB2. No 3.5mm or SD card or stereo speakers or wireless charging. Under-display FP sensor with Gorilla gals 5/Victus. Plastic back aluminum sides. IP65/67 water resistant. Android 14 with 3 year OS upgrades and 5 year quarterly security patches. No charger in the box except Indian market. Detachable gadgets priced about $100 for each. Phone's price around $450/€420/35,000 Rupees with one gadget gift. Unveiling in July. Starts rolling in market in September. Might appear again in IFA Berlin 2024 with gadgets and new colors.

      I think HMD should release an flagship killer €620

        I think the Arrow will feature an Sd480 chip, 4-8 GB RAM, 64/128/256 GB storage, an 13 MPX camera and an 720p display

          Gooogol-plex, 14 May 2024It's an absolutely new brandYou are $#!+

            777china, 15 May 2024Unisoc is shit even chinese dont use it, why are european usingNot trying to defend HMD, but some Unisocs are not even that bad. Unisoc T606/T610/T612 are miles better Helio G3x series on almost everything (except on camera probably). With the same pricing, with Unisoc you can get a performance core, far better GPU, and UFS support, while G3x is full on efficiency cores, still uses an inferior PowerVR GPU, and stuck with eMMC. Unisoc T616/T618/T619 are even better than Helio G85/G88/G91 in terms of storage and CPU (slightly), even though they're a bit worse in terms of GPU and Camera.

            The same goes to their 5G chipset, which is sadly not much used. Their Tanggula T760/T770/T820 are literally miles better than Any Dimensity 6xxx series chipset, since they're using 4+4 cores and 1+3+4 cores configuration instead 2+6 cores configuration that used by MediaTek. But again their GPU and (probably) the ISP is still inferior compared to MediaTek.

            Efficiency wise, both are already efficient enough because both chipset are manufactured by TSMC.

            But again, the problem is we're not getting enough Unisoc phones in the market. Or we're not getting one with good pricing. HMD is one of them when it comes to giving the worse price possible to these kind of phones.

              Anonymous, 14 May 2024Unisoc Tangula T765?Probably. Or probably the one above that, but considering this is HMD, I doubt it.

                  An Ultimate e-waste is coming in the name of Arrow. The brand " legendary Nokia" was dead a long ago. HMD is just killing remaining good perspective of Nokia brand. HMD should rename themselves into "Unisoc". A shit!

                    with Unisoc 5G chipset?

                      Anonymous, 14 May 2024It is amazing that a company this bad can remain in busines... moreMoney laundering. Seriously. It's the only explanation.

                      No one buys their garbage phones. They're making a loss every year financially. Something fishy is definitely going on.

                                  Rabbil, 14 May 2024Another entry level trash from the house of hmd! Like 6 people will buy this device and half of them will likely return it.

                                    i am guessing it will be that hmd tomcat phone which appeared on Geekbench with snapdragon 7s gen 2

                                      Mills, 14 May 2024My bad. I forget that Helio's don't get 5G. Anyho... moreDon't forget the ultra small 50mp main camera, and the 2mp useless secondary lens.

                                        DarlingYext, 14 May 2024Can't be Mediatek G series if it's 5G.My bad. I forget that Helio's don't get 5G. Anyhoo, Knowing HMD, they'll probably slap a D6020 or 6080 and call it a day.
