HMD global's first smartphone could be a midrange device, and 91mobiles has the first official render of the upcoming device.
The two HMD smartphones spotted on the IMEI database had the model number N159V and TA-1585. 91mobiles has exclusively received images from industry sources of HMD's first smartphone with the model number N159V, the moniker of which is still unknown.
HMD's first smartphone seems to be a lower midrange device based on its design. The phone features a matte-finished back in a black colour option. While the material of the back panel is unknown to us, the frame could be made of plastic based on the lack of antenna lines.
On the front, the device features a punch-hole selfie camera on its flat display. The power and volume buttons lie on the right side of the device. The phone also features a new HMD logo spotted in an EUIPO listing last year. The brand could continue with this new brand identity for its line of phones.
Since the model numbers N159V and TA-1585 were certified on the IMEI database on the same day last year, they could belong to the same device pictured above. The difference in model number could be due to regional and carrier deals. HMD is expected to make its new smartphone available globally. 91mobiles confirmed earlier this year that the HMD-branded phones will launch in India as soon as April.
