HMD Global, the company currently in charge of Nokia smartphones, seems to be really leaning into nostalgia. Just last month, the company brought back the 90s classic Nokia 3210 smartphone with modern twists. And it seems they’re at it again with another phone.
We’ve heard before that HMD is cooking up something called the Skyline. Now, the first renders for the HMD Skyline have surfaced on X, courtesy of user @smashx_60.
The renders show a phone reminiscent of the Fabula design language first introduced with the Nokia N9. But with its bright yellow color scheme, I can’t help but be reminded of the iconic Nokia Lumia 920.
While the design might be a trip down memory lane, the specs seem firmly rooted in the present. According to a previous report, Skyline will sport a modern FHD+ OLED display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. The device is expected to be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 SoC, a capable mid-range chipset.
On the back, the Skyline will flaunt a triple-camera system, featuring a 108MP main sensor, an ultrawide lens, and a macro or depth sensor. Selfies will be handled by a 32MP front-facing camera.
The phone will have a sizable 4,900mAh battery with support for 33W fast charging. Additionally, it is said to be IP67-rated for dust and water resistance.
Modern conveniences like an under-display fingerprint sensor and stereo speakers are also reportedly on the table. The software side is expected to be covered by Android 14, the latest iteration of Google’s mobile operating system.
The HMD Skyline is expected to cost €520 for the 8GB RAM and 256GB storage variant and will reportedly launch sometime in July.
