Update 1: camera samples are out ua-cam.com/video/ELwyPVbpLJ0/v-deo.htmlsi=bedxbFXJIeUgzP-O Apologies that the unit sent over is actually meant for HMD testing internally. It was sent by mistake. Hence I can't share much of the display for now. I will be doing a proper display test later when the actual review unit arrives. Thank you for understanding 🙏. Update 1 : At this point of time,the OZO playback supports only the device speaker. I don't appreciate any difference in my earbuds.
HND was the only phone nakers that did not sell our data to Meta now they do wich is a BIG NO NO for me because i love stock Android. New HMD devices is coming with Meta spywares framework built-in the OS wich i dont like it. No problem with some apps downloaded from Play Store but having a Neta spywares as a system app is not acceptable to me. I now have Nokia G 42 wich only comes with Netflix. HMD devices are not cheap
@@DrNokia_theoriginalsince you have contact with HMD, can pass this feedback to them? 1. Firmware recovery tool for user to update to latest patch, boot to nonbroken OS slot and flash to recover from soft brick. As for the motivation, care center for Nokia has been closing here and there. Before user had to send their phone for warranty, it's best to let them try to recover first. At the very least, there will lesser phones being returned due to simple soft brick 2. Bootloader unlock. There are dedicated custom ROM maintainers for older HMD phones despite the unofficial bootloader unlock. Giving bootloader unlock will regain enthusiast interest again as well as gaining more beta testers. What makes people to avoid beta testing program on X20 are lack of bootloader unlock as well as lack of firmware recovery tool That said, I don't really mind if HMD didn't bother with this since Nothing already provided pretty much this. Buying Skyline right now means I'm out of support for both hardware and software
@@DrNokia_theoriginal Why so ? Wouldn't it be a great marketing strategy to use this brand to differentiate a Camera centric phone and also to indicate Nokia legacy.
The with 10 hours of active use, it is not bad either but perhaps battery life needs improvement, what is happening in HMD now, is it they planning the August update as a true performance for HMD skyline? Or will we see a magic in August?
from my experience with X20, initially it was below 1 day battery. Once it adapted to my pattern, it standby around 2 days with both wifi and data turned on all the time. best case was 5.4 where it reached 5 days of standby time with both wifi and data turned on. while I have my own optimization tricks, HMD phones really need to learn your usage pattern for adaptive battery. it helps the 5.4 to standby pretty much 2-3 days despite being 3 years old phone now, which most phone tend to have battery degraded
PD-standard charging is fine with me. most chinese/indian phones fake their actual charging wattags anyway, which even Samsung did that to some extent I already have a decent PD charger so don't care about chargers anymore, unless if they do 45-65W single port charger which I have a niche usecase for
Very disappointed because holding the phone puts fingers on the lens. Later hold from the middle half device was invisible not a professional way to explain the camera section....... Supposed to show device not hand ✋

I❤HMD. I am requesting everyone to please support this brand.
They have not provided any crest phones for reviews. And I highly doubt those phones cameras.
Nokia fans❤❤❤
Service centre????
Nope, a failed finland brand.

Looking forward to the camera review. Please demonstrate panning shots for stabilization at different resolutions though I would only ever use 1080.
Can't wait for the camera comparison. Please compare with Nokia Pureview devices.
I am definitely warming upto it
Remind me about Lumia series. Harap dapat support atleast 2 years OS upgrade
It is beautiful but may be the UI need a little bit polish. Still gonna buy it anyway :))))
It's beautiful.
Compare the display with X30. It's also OLED display..sound quality is loud💪💪💪
very sad to see that they have removed the Nokia brand name from the phones
The DNA is still there..and the Skyline is the closest to a good midrange Nokia device..so I support it fully. Better than previous HMD devices.

@@DrNokia_theoriginalHMD Still Holds PureView Brand so why don't they use this for camera ?
@@arorakirtiwon't make a difference now.

Which color of 'Nokia Clarity Earbuds 2+' will be best suited with 'HMD Skyline - Pink Variant'?
Please suggest
Pink..
What other colours coming to India?
Bigger brother for HMD Crest
What's the issue with the display?
Looks like a nokia n9. And i loved my N9

Yup, it seems once a newer software available, it can improve the battery life.
Awesome review!
When coming to India
Please provide your experience with its haptic feedback too in your upcoming review 👍
Its a bit too strong for my liking but it's responsive.
@@DrNokia_theoriginal oh!
good to know 😃
Want that lumia 925 please 🥺
How much price?
What is camera zoom
20X digital. 2X optical. 4X fusion.
@@DrNokia_theoriginal that's it
I think realme is the best
What i dont understand: Some Update and Upgrade of Android are worse then their Nokia Phones? The X30 22-26 the skyline 24-27 Why? Its not cheaper!
Philippines? when?
Late August
@@DrNokia_theoriginal nice, can't wait any longer😍
3.5mm audio jack
look nice..
coming to Malaysia???
Word is third week August.
@@DrNokia_theoriginal OMG..really? ok will buy the pink
Hmd Need To Make More Watt Powerful Charger And Provide In Box
It's fast enough actually..

Gaming review sir..❤❤
Done
It looks like a Nokia n9
This brand doesn't make sense as i heard they will not be giving any new android versions.
No official news on Crest. That's under Indian team. Skyline has 2 years OS updates.
Why you can't show the display properly
Dont support this brand we want nokia
Over Price H
Very disappointed because holding the phone puts fingers on the lens.

Take time to understand what I have stressed upon multiple times in this video before commenting like this.
Gift me brother😭😭😭😭
Can gift me the phone..I like it..please🙏🙏🙏🙏
