Thanks for the review. Mine's the Atmos Blue colorway and is a TA-1589 with 4GB RAM + 4GB virtual RAM with 128GB storage. Gave some of the selfie gestures a go on my Pulse like the peace sign gesture in the camera app-makes snapping selfies a snap!
Thanks for this review. The guaranteed OS updates is a win. Not sure about the processor, but hopefully this would serve as a great backup phone that will last.
You’re welcome. And yes definitely good to see OS upgrades at this price point, but processor does let the phone down unfortunately, 100% as a back up/second phone it would suffice
Really nicely done content mate. Sooooo many UA-cam reviews I find untrustworthy cos they want free stuff, so don't discuss negative aspects of a given product like they should. I'll definitely check out your channel mate.
I have a Nokia G10 that I bought for my son as a temporary phone. It has a very similar spec to the HMD Pulse. The processor on both phones is slow but not unusable. Having a slow processor is actually an advantage because with a slow processor battery life is in the G10 an industry beating 3 days. Another feature which help improve the battery life in both phones is a large display which hides a huge battery. The battery life in both phones is also helped by its LCD display rather than an OLED display. I think that the similarly specified new HMD Vibe is a better buy because it has a much better Snapdragon 680 processor. Unfortunately the HMD Vibe is only available in America.
Thank you! Appreciate that. Budget tablet wise, I would say the Honor pad X9 is a good choice, also the Lenovo Tab M11 is good too (more for productivity)
I got my son G14 its epic for the price and you can boost to 8gb ram he has lots of games and has 10+ apps open and still works flawlessly. I have edge 30 ultra wanting edge 50 ultra.
I recomand a G42 5G over this. Kosts 200eur at the moment but has a faster cpu and is more fun to use. Still no phone for gaming, but enough for the rest.
@typicaltechlad I got a few screen protectors for the samsung s22 for free so i thought that i should upgrade to the S22 from the oppo A57it's been gettjng slower with every update its not broken just slow, do you think i should wait till the new EU laws are updated? (laws about replaceable batteries and right to repair)
I was a fan of HMD Nokia around 2018, they were pretty great around that time and I was hoping they'll make Nokia relevant again. Then they announced they'll no longer making flagship phone in 2020, ended their partnership with Carl Zeiss in 2021, making a phone with 5 year old unisoc sc9863 and micro usb charging port in 2022, and finally announced no more Nokia branded smartphone starting 2024. As for this HMD Pulse, I see no reason to buy them over Nokia G22. Basically the same phone with same gimmick... repairability means nothing if the phone itself not worth to fix after 2 year. Sorry for my rant, I'm just very disappointed with HMD.
#Dear HMD,peoplewant more brightness under the sun 1000ppi make 1080p,make dynamic graphics colird display in all social media platform while it is IPS LCD .why you not make SUPER GAMOT IPS LCD pannel use.make tiny chin,tiny bessel in all side.make better a liitle add wider wide display .make 6000mah battery with 60 wats fast charger.make real 16gb ram/256gb rom Netflex Security -L1 make 3G 4G 5G 6G network signal stock android 14 version.peoplw wantscan be costumize the 16 major color display set up adjust 16 major color on display setting ❤❤❤❤dontforget input on ios camera front and back.❤❤❤
I thought they'd be more Nokia phones possibly bearing the new Nokia logo. Disappointing. I saw from few articles and videos that these hmd phones have terrible cameras.
I was so hopful for hmd Thought they will change Will bring new things Os But it is so depressing It just feels like they don't want to be successful;(
Nice unbiased depth review and good explanation. Thanks so much. I will buy it because it's my budget and love stock and will software updates
Thank you bro, glad you found it helpful, I hope the phone serves you well 👍
Stock android + UniSoc T606 just works best for daily use. Mine moto e13 with 2/64 is just giving better usability. This one have 4 gigs ram.
U already bought it before this video 😏
@@typicaltechlad месяц пользуюсь, очень доволен! Норм. телефон

HMD make great phone 👍🏻. I will surely buy one of them later. I currently use a Nokia X20
the software work wall?
Great review I just found your channel very indepth keep doing your thing bro. Question what's your suggestion for best budget tablets
Thank you! Appreciate that. Budget tablet wise, I would say the Honor pad X9 is a good choice, also the Lenovo Tab M11 is good too (more for productivity)
One of my favorites phone 📱 I promise I will get it one day
Hope you can get it 👍

Better go for G42 since it's a Snapdragon powered phone
Good review, thanks. Looks just like my Nokia G22 that I use as a backup phone except with different cameras.
Thank you 🤩 yeah looks like a lot of the design language has been taken from previous Nokia phones

On the plus and pro models, I'd rather have seen better processors than cameras...
Do it has wireless FM radio, can I listen to radio without headphones? Thanks❤
Yup
Yes you can use it without headphone
@@neverwill8879 thanks 🙏
Which phone has a wireless fm radio maybe a feature phone
Oukitell wp33 20,000 mah battery the phone is a beast
So are these what we normally know as being Nokia ?
Wireless charging?

Also...most people will still take their phone to a technician anyway. I doubt anyone will be able to repair it themselves
Like am using it ❤❤
Better off with the moto g14
@kssis86bYeah no because you still get stuck with a 720p display unisoc t606 lol
I wish they redesign old nokia phones with current tech. That would be great.
That would be amazing, I loved the original Nokia 8600 Luna, would love to see a modern version of that
Great phone tbh, for the price its a very good investment ^^. But any case for it? Lol, repair, but no volontary break huh… ^^
eMMC or ufs sir?
I believe it is UFS 2.2
After being fooled by Samsung m55. I have decided my next smartphone will be hmd
I think it's a great device at 99 quid.
HMD had started very poorly.
Really. You can buy them for 79 and it has everything most people need. 2 os update . Hmm seems a steal to me
Wow ❤

Seemingly these phones aren't selling well. That's the conclusion because their prices have come down over recent weeks.
I was so hopful for hmd
Thought they will change
Will bring new things
Os
But it is so depressing
It just feels like they don't want to be successful;(
LCD PANEL WOW FUTURE TECHNOLOGY....3033...AMAZING....🤣🤣🤣😂😂
A curious question: Are there people over eighty years of age who are very elderly people who own and will use modern smart phones??👍
Yes. My partner's parents are in their late 80s and they both have iPhones. They're always on WhatsApp and facetime.
Better off with two cans and a piece of string 🤔
PUBG 90 fps
🌬️🤍🤍
Noob ra phone 😅😅😅😅😅😅 shameful hmd brand..
Better than India lava smartphone
