A second HMD device leaks with Lumia-like looks, lower price than the Skyline

02 July 2024
This device, whatever its code name, should be around €100 cheaper than the skyline.

Sort by:

I don't get it why HMD stopped making proper high end Nokia phones. Those first models with solid milled aluminium frame and pretty high end chipsets were pretty cool and then they just all disappeared and got replaced by 300 generic models all powered by Snapdragon 695. WHY?

And now HMD is just pumping out 300 more generic models under its own brand. I just don't understand them.

    All those big borders around and HMD still put a waterdrop notch and a big chin?

    I don't have a problem with the borders, sure they feel nostalgic

      WHY? If we're digging up Nokia's corpse to look for money, do something INNOVATIVE. The company that made Symbian, n-gage, the 3200 and 3650, the 7600 !! The N93. Look them up people. Pour out a little liquor for the Lumia 1020.

      This was a company with a legacy of daring to try new things and be different. Try it, HMD. You can't fail any worse than these also-rans no one is going to buy.

                  Sure, Microsoft owned them by that point but the Lumia 830 was pretty much out in the factory by that point. And you can see afterwards how creativity died at Microsoft's hands: Lumia 640 and what followed were bland and boring devices, which didnt help Windows phone at all.

                  Lumia 950 lineup just released to be "Business" devices, which probably steered away a lot of people. And this was in the year when Android was in a tumultous war of changes with the S5, the LG G5 and so much more.

                    This 'cheaper' device is just the Pulse Pro with a FHD+ screen (vs. HD+), it seems.

                      They have so much bezel space and they still decided to put a fugly notch on it, ugh.


                      HMD cant let the classics sleep without making an abomination with them.

                          Between 2001 and early 2014, Nokia made Lumia (advertised as Nokia Lumia).
                          Late 2014, devices were advertised as Microsoft Lumia, despite the fact Microsoft was licensed to use Nokia brand name for 10 years.

                            The Nokia Lumia designs were beautiful back then.

                              Typical overpriced HMD pricing. And no HMD, we DON'T need another overpriced phone with T606.

                                HMD is not Nokia. They just make Nokia-branded devices (different thing, because they only use Nokia branding and that's it). Last time the real Nokia makes device is when Lumia still existed (or is it the Nokia X one is their last phones? I'm a bit forgot).

                                        And what does HMD even mean?
