HMD Global, the entity that keeps Nokia in the smartphone game, seems all set for another product debut. After their recent rollout of feature phones (the 2024 models Nokia 108, Nokia 110 4G, and Nokia 125 4G), a leak from @smashx_60 suggests that a new smartphone called the Pulse 2 Pro is on its way.
Possible Upgrades
This might be a timely refresh for the original Pulse Pro, which came out in April and typically sells for around $199 on Amazon. Nevertheless, the leaked information indicates that the Pulse 2 Pro does not appear to offer any major enhancements.
Specs of the HMD Pulse 2 Pro
For the display, HMD seems to stick with the familiar 6.65-inch IPS screen that has a 720p resolution. The upside is that the 90Hz refresh rate and maximum brightness of up to 600 nits (HBM) are likely to remain unchanged.
The camera setup reportedly stays pretty much the same with a 50MP main camera, a 2MP depth sensor, and a matching 50MP camera for selfies. A solid 5,000mAh battery, 20W wired charging, and RAM choices of 6GB or 8GB are also expected to return.
Storage and Processor Changes
The most noticeable upgrade appears to be in terms of storage. Unlike the Pulse Pro, which has a 128GB cap, the Pulse 2 Pro might allow for as much as 256GB. Under the hood, the leak hints at a change from the Unisoc T606 to the Unisoc T612 processor.
While these specifications imply a small upgrade, it's important to remember that the Pulse Pro was already considered a solid budget choice. This minor update could attract those looking for a big screen, decent cameras, and a durable battery at an affordable price.
However, the exact launch date still remains a mystery. With no official announcement from HMD, it’s uncertain when the Pulse 2 Pro will become available. We will continue to monitor the situation and will provide updates as new information arises.
