There’s a motive why the classics nonetheless play on the radio – and it’s the identical motive that HMD has embraced the Lumia design language for its current batch of telephones, beginning with the Skyline. Arguably the perfect Lumia of all of them was the Lumia 1020, all due to the spectacular 41MP sensor housed on a round digital camera island on the again.
HMD appears to be tapping into simply that design for an unnamed upcoming mannequin. The centered round island is dwelling to 4 lenses (and the LED flash), as seen within the leaked silhouette under:
HMD’s Lumia 1020 lookalike
This isn’t the HMD Hyper, which has an oblong island within the higher left nook, identical to the Skyline. And it isn’t the opposite similar-looking HMD telephone that additionally leaked lately. The Hyper seems to be a decrease mid-range gadget, anyway, whereas it will probably be within the higher echelons.
Not that we now have any specs to work with, other than the digital camera depend – the Skyline was HMD’s most bold telephone when it comes to digital camera but and its first to have a triple digital camera (not counting telephones with macro modules). This 1020 lookalike ought to be HMD’s first telephone with a quad digital camera.
The 108+50+13MP setup of the Skyline actually has stable {hardware}, however the general bundle is missing in sure elements. Nonetheless, even this digital camera isn’t on the extent of flagship Lumias. Whereas the Lumias misplaced the decision crown years in the past, the high-quality picture processing that outlined the Lumias (and the PureView earlier than them) was realized over years of effort, so HMD has an extended highway forward of it if it desires to problem the present digital camera kings.
