HMD Global, the Finnish smartphone maker known for reviving the Nokia brand, is reportedly gearing up to launch another mid-range device, the HMD Hyper. Recent leaks have surfaced, showcasing official-looking images and detailed specifications of the unannounced smartphone.
HMD Hyper Colors and Design
The latest leak, shared by reputable leaker @smashx_60 on X, reveals that the HMD Hyper will be available in four striking colors: vibrant yellow, Blue Topaz, Red, and Gray. While it remains unclear if all colors will be available globally, the variety suggests HMD is aiming to offer a broader appeal with the Hyper.
Key Specifications
Alongside the color options, the leaked specs confirm that the HMD Hyper will feature a 6.55-inch display, ideal for those seeking a mid-sized smartphone. The device is also rated IP54 for dust and water resistance, ensuring durability in everyday use.
Under the hood, the HMD Hyper is expected to be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 processor, coupled with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of expandable storage. This combination should provide smooth performance for daily tasks and moderate gaming.
Powering the device is a robust 4,700 mAh battery, with support for 33W wired charging, allowing for quick top-ups. Photography enthusiasts will appreciate the triple camera setup on the back, which includes a 50MP main sensor, a 13MP secondary lens, and an 8MP lens. The front-facing 50MP camera, neatly integrated into a punch-hole cutout, promises high-quality selfies.
Expected Launch and Pricing
Rumors suggest that the HMD Hyper is set to launch later this year. With its competitive specs, it is anticipated to be priced below the HMD Skyline, which currently retails for around $500. If the leaks hold true, the HMD Hyper could be a solid contender in the mid-range smartphone market.
