HMD Global is planning to launch its self-branded smartphones in India soon. The Finnish smartphone maker is all set to launch the first HMD-branded smartphone in India soon, after launching the Pulse, Pulse Plus, and Pulse Pro smartphones globally.
In a post on X (formerly known as Twitter), HMD India stated, “Launching our first smartphone in India will be a historical moment for us. And this is your chance to be a part of it! Participate in the #HMDNameOurSmartphone contest and you could be one of the first five owners of HMD India’s first smartphone!”
Currently, we are not sure which smartphone will HMD launch in India first. However, we can expect it to be one of the Pulse series smartphones.
HMD Pulse series: Specifications and features
The HMD Pulse and the Pulse+ are powered by the Unisoc T606 processor paired with Mali-G57 MP1 GPU. They have up to 6GB RAM, and up to 256GB onboard storage. Both smartphones come with Android 14 out of the box.
Both phones also have 6.65-inch 90Hz LCD HD+ displays, and 5000mAh batteries with 10W charging support. However, the HMD Pulse features a 13MP main camera, while the Pulse Plus gets a 50MP primary camera unit. Both have an 8MP front camera.
The HMD Pulse Pro, on the other hand, sports a 6.56-inch HD+ 90Hz display and comes with the same Unisoc T606 chipset. But, it comes with up to 8GB of RAM and 128GB of inbuilt storage. It also has a high-resolution 50MP front camera and supports faster 20W charging.
