According to a new report from the company’s homeland of Finland, HMD’s next smartphone will be branded Skyline. The Skyline is scheduled to be unveiled in July and is expected to be available in Finnish retailers on July 10th.
The retail price is said to be 520 euros, which is more expensive than the HMD and Nokia brands we know today. It has 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of internal storage, is black and of course supports two SIM cards. The model number is TA-1688.
No further details were revealed this time, but it is likely the device previously codenamed Tomcat. In this case, the Skyline should feature an FHD+ OLED touchscreen with a 120Hz refresh rate and be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 SoC.
There are three cameras on the back (a 108-megapixel main camera, possibly an 8-megapixel ultra-wide camera and a 2-megapixel macro or depth sensor) as well as a 32-megapixel selfie camera. The phone is expected to be powered by a 4900mAh battery with support for 33W fast charging. It has an IP67 dust and waterproof certificate and will come with Android 14 from day one. It has an under-display fingerprint recognition sensor and stereo speakers.
Another upcoming device is called Nighthawk and this device will cost less than 300 euros. The phone is also rumored to feature an OLED+ FHD display with a 120Hz refresh rate, powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 SoC, and 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage depending on the variant you choose.
It also has a 108-megapixel main camera, but there’s only one additional camera on the back, which appears to be the Skyline’s 32-megapixel selfie camera. However, the phone has a 5000mAh battery and a headphone jack. It also features Android 14 and stereo speakers.
