Upcoming HMD smartphone’s first look revealed through official render
HIGHLIGHTS
- The first official render of HMD Global’s first smartphone under its own brand name is revealed exclusively by us.
- The phone features a basic design language, indicating that it could be a lower mid-range device.
- The device also features HMD’s new logo for its mobile phones and could launch in India as soon as April.
The company was using the Nokia brand to release its smartphones globally, and for the first time, it will release a phone under the “HMD” name. The company is expected to launch at least two phones, as spotted last year on the IMEI database.
HMD smartphone’s first official render reveals design
The two HMD smartphones spotted on the IMEI database had the model number N159V and TA-1585. 91mobiles has exclusively received images from industry sources of HMD’s first smartphone with the model number N159V, the moniker of which is still unknown.
HMD’s first smartphone seems to be a lower midrange device based on its design. The phone features a matte-finished back in a black colour option. While the material of the back panel is unknown to us, the frame could be made of plastic based on the lack of antenna lines.
On the front, the device features a punch-hole selfie camera on its flat display. The power and volume buttons lie on the right side of the device. The phone also features a new HMD logo spotted in an EUIPO listing last year. The brand could continue with this new brand identity for its line of phones.
