HMD has announced a new phone in India with the HMD Touch 4G. HMD's newest Touch 4G phone uses a 3.2-inch QVGA display, runs on UNISOC T127 and has 64MB of RAM with 128GB of storage. The HMD Touch 4G is not a smartphone and uses the brand's custom operating system called RTOS Touch. It's a platform for basic HMD browser apps but messaging like group chats and video calls in usual smartphones can only be done in a specific app called Express Chat (which can be downloaded by Android and iOS users). HMD Global, the home of Nokia phones, has announced a strategic partnership with Xplora, a Norway-based maker of children’s smartwatches. This move aligns with HMD’s ongoing commitment to addressing the growing concerns of parents regarding the early adoption of smartphones. “We are excited to join forces with Xplora to deliver tech solutions tailored to the unique needs of children and young people,” said Jean-Francois Baril, CEO and Chairman of HMD Global. “This allows us to foster a healthy and positive relationship with technology — providing all the essential features, without any unnecessary distractions.” HMD and Xplora reportedly expect to showcase the first products and services resulting from this partnership at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona in March 2025.
