HMD is expected to launch a bunch of smartphones. The company had previously introduced the HMD Skyline that brought the nostalgic Lumia design language. However, the journey of nostalgic smartphones doesn’t end here. The latest report suggests that HMD might be working on a new phone that will bring back memories of the iconic Lumia 1020. Let’s take a closer look below.
HMD’s latest launch, the HMD Skyline, was launched as an upper mid-range smartphone. It’s a versatile phone that stands out with its design. However, the company could gain more market share by launching niche-focused devices. For example, a camera-centric phone. Since the company is rebranding its iconic Nokia phones, it’s likely that it has decided to bring something similar to the Lumia 1020, a phone known for its camera.
HMD Launches Camera-Focused Smartphone
Gizchina News of the Week
According to a recent report from HMD News, the company is preparing a new phone. It has a circular camera cutout that sets it apart from the previous HMD Skyline box camera housing. Additionally, the render reveals five cutouts on the module. It potentially teases four sensors and an LED flashlight. At the moment, we don’t know what camera sensors this phone will have. The original Lumia 1020 had a 41MP primary shooter, but times have changed and having ultra-wide and additional sensors is now a must.
Another important point is that the phone continues to feature a Lumia-inspired frame. This is a big hint that the device may not be budget-oriented like the Pulse series, but instead be aimed at the upper mid-range or high-end market. However, it’s too early to judge. So, we should wait for official confirmation before getting too excited. Let us know what you expect from this upcoming Lumia 1020-inspired smartphone in the comments below!
