The company&#8217;s most premium own-branded phone yet ships solely with a purple USB cable, so you&#8217;ll need to supply your own chargers to take advantage of its support for 33W wired and 15W wireless charging.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"inline-image\" width=\"1200\" height=\"799\" src=\"https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/24\/07\/hmd-skyline-ifr\/-1200w5\/gsmarena_001.jpg\" alt=\"HMD Skyline in for review\"\/><\/p>\n<p>One of HMD&#8217;s key selling points for the Skyline is its Gen 2 repairability, allowing you to replace a screen or a battery in under 10 munites. HMD has partnered with iFixit for this and they have a tutorial how to get it done over on their website. All you need is a T3 Torx screwdriver and an opening pick.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a single T3 screw on the phone&#8217;s bottom right corner, which you unscrew and the rear panelto pops. You then need to expand the opening with a pick and get the panel off.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a new custom button on the left side, which can be used to trigger what HMD calls Detox Mode. It&#8217;s a software solution to turn off the noise in your life, but it&#8217;s not available at launch. Right now, the custom button triggers the torch by default.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"inline-image\" width=\"1200\" height=\"799\" src=\"https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/24\/07\/hmd-skyline-ifr\/-1200w5\/gsmarena_002.jpg\" alt=\"HMD Skyline in for review\"\/><\/p>\n<p>This Neon Pink Skyline comes with color-matching wallpaper and UI elements. It&#8217;s a lovely shade of pink and photos don&#8217;t do it justice &#8211; this is truly a very vivid and full color.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"inline-image\" width=\"1200\" height=\"799\" src=\"https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/24\/07\/hmd-skyline-ifr\/-1200w5\/gsmarena_003.jpg\" alt=\"HMD Skyline in for review\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The HMD Skyline reminds us of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/nokia_n9-3398.php\">the fabled Nokia N9<\/a> from back in the day. Try to see past the absurd size discrepancy and note the round screen corners sitting in contrast with the squared-off corners of the phone.<\/p>\n<p>However, it&#8217;s only a design resemblance, the Nokia N9 was curved polycarbonate to the HMD Skyline&#8217;s flat metal and glass.<\/p>\n<p class=\"image-row clearfix\">&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/24\/07\/hmd-skyline-ifr\/-1200x900mw5\/gsmarena_004.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The HMD Skyline next to the Nokia N9\" width=\"326\" height=\"217\" src=\"https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/24\/07\/hmd-skyline-ifr\/-326\/gsmarena_004.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<a onclick=\"javascript:ShowImg2(&quot;news\/24\/07\/hmd-skyline-ifr\/-1200x900mw5\/gsmarena_005.jpg&quot;);return false\" href=\"#\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The HMD Skyline next to the Nokia N9\" width=\"326\" height=\"217\" src=\"https:\/\/fdn.gsmarena.com\/imgroot\/news\/24\/07\/hmd-skyline-ifr\/-326\/gsmarena_005.jpg\"\/><\/a>&#13;<br \/>\n<br \/><span><strong>The HMD Skyline next to the Nokia N9<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>More on the HMD Skyline is coming soon!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/hmd_skyline_in_for_review-news-63767.php\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] This is the HMD Skyline in the very aptly named Neon Pink color.
