The specs are wild, this is likely going to be very expensive
It has a secure element so it could run Graphene no? The only problem is that it’s not a mainstream device so I don’t think it’s going to be supported.
A similar device that’s currently released is Nokia XR21, but the only pro is that it’s manufactured in Hungary
Don’t bother with HMD’s candybar dumbphones if you wanna escape Android, mine calls 999 (ambulance) if I put it in the backpack and it did it two times on its own (HMD 110 4G 2024), flip phones shouldn’t have this problem though.
This looks like it is marketed to governments and critical infrastructure, so it probably won’t be buyable or at least affordable.
But I hope this was the vendor GrapheneOS had in mind for their planned OEM lineup. And I very much want to have one, the specs and look of it are insane.
This thing will be more expensive that a folding phone, heck, even two foltding phones. Being a top-end phone manufactured in Europe is expensive.
Sounds like phone that’ll cost something like 1800-3000€. I’ll pass and stay with Fairphone.
Isn’t HMD the new owner of nokia phones or am i confusing things?
HMD used to manufacture (I don’t think they’ll release any new Nokia phone till the end ofthe year) phones using the Nokia brand, because Nokia licensed it to them. The license ends with the end of this year. From that point on HMD will make devices under their own brand.
Did they also do the production of nokia phones before they licensed the brand or only during?
Nokia->M$->HMD
Is Hungary any better than China tho?
They’re way more democratic.
from a climate change perspective according to this:

way better
If they had better legislation, they wouldn’t need phones like that.
