It has been more than a year since the HMD Fusion was first revealed as an affordable modular smartphone. Earlier this year at MWC 2025, two special editions were introduced, including the Fusion X1 aimed at children. The first rumors regarding its successor, likely named the HMD Fusion 2, emerged back in April. Now, the same source has shared some important specifications for the new device.
Key Upgrades Announced
The HMD Fusion 2 is set to come with notable enhancements over its predecessor, according to a post on X by HMD_MEME’S (@smashx_60), a leaker known for providing insights on future HMD products.
The upcoming HMD Fusion 2 will sport a 6.58-inch OLED screen featuring an FHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. This is a considerable improvement compared to the 2024 HMD Fusion, which had a 6.56-inch IPS display with an HD+ resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate.
Enhanced Performance
HMD will upgrade the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 from the previous model to the newly launched Snapdragon 6s Gen 4. Sadly, there are no specifics regarding the RAM and storage options that the HMD Fusion 2 will offer.
The rear camera setup on the HMD Fusion 2 will include two cameras — a 108MP primary lens similar to its predecessor but will feature an 8MP ultrawide camera, taking the place of the 2MP depth sensor from the HMD Fusion. However, the resolution for the front camera was not disclosed in the leak.
Improved Durability and Features
Nevertheless, the source also stated that the HMD Fusion 2 will come with an IP65 rating for dust and water resistance, which is a significant upgrade from the IP54 rating found on the HMD Fusion. Additional features include NFC, Bluetooth 5.3, dual speakers, an audio jack, Pogo Pin 2.0, and a second generation of Smart Outfits, also known as modular accessories.
There’s still uncertainty whether the new POGO pins will resemble those on the original model or those seen on the HMD Lvalo XE 5G. The arrangement and design of the POGO pins will affect compatibility with earlier Smart Outfits. Unfortunately, the battery capacity and charging speed details have not been shared.
Conclusion
In any case, the HMD Fusion 2 seems to be developing into a significantly improved device compared to the first generation. Furthermore, some of its specifications even surpass those of its closest competitor, the CMF Phone 2 Pro. For instance, while the HMD Fusion 2 is rumored to have an IP65 rating, the CMF Phone 2 Pro is rated at IP54 (currently priced at €245.29 on Amazon.de). Additionally, the Fusion 2 is expected to deliver a sharper display due to its smaller screen compared to the CMF Phone 2 Pro.
