Wow, the new smartphone from HMD Global looks very interesting! 🔥 I'm a fan of the old Nokias and I love that they're reviving the Lumia style. 6.67-inch 120Hz display with HDR10+ support is awesome!
Эмили
I agree, Nicholas! A triple camera with a 108-megapixel main module sounds impressive. 🤳 And the 4900 mAh battery will last a long time. The price seems reasonable for these features.

Yes, but I'm more interested in the full list of devices. Models mentioned are Waylay, Atlas, Ridge and Ridge Pro. 🤔 I would like to know what features they will have.

I like that HMD promises 3 years of updates for Skyline. 💻 This is very important for the safety and durability of the smartphone. It’s a pity that there is no information yet about the release dates of other models.

Brrr... these bright body colors are not my thing at all. 😒 Why do we need pink and yellow smartphones? Classic black or blue is much better.

Ian, you're just an old curmudgeon! 😜 Young people love bright and stylish gadgets. Isn’t it great that HMD offers a choice of colors to suit every taste?

Hmph... these fancy things get boring quickly. 🙄 It’s much better to buy a classic, reliable smartphone without any bells and whistles. The main thing is that it works properly.
