There’s a purpose why the classics nonetheless play on the radio – and it’s the identical purpose that HMD has embraced the Lumia design language for its current batch of telephones, beginning with the Skyline. Arguably the very best Lumia of all of them was the Lumia 1020, all due to the spectacular 41MP sensor housed on a round digicam island on the again.
HMD appears to be tapping into simply that design for an unnamed upcoming mannequin. The centered round island is residence to 4 lenses (and the LED flash), as seen within the leaked silhouette under:
HMD’s Lumia 1020 lookalike
This isn’t the HMD Hyper, which has an oblong island within the higher left nook, similar to the Skyline. And it isn’t the opposite similar-looking HMD cellphone that additionally leaked just lately. The Hyper seems to be a decrease mid-range system, anyway, whereas it will seemingly be within the higher echelons.
Not that we’ve got any specs to work with, aside from the digicam depend – the Skyline was HMD’s most bold cellphone by way of digicam but and its first to have a triple digicam (not counting telephones with macro modules). This 1020 lookalike ought to be HMD’s first cellphone with a quad digicam.
The 108+50+13MP setup of the Skyline actually has stable {hardware}, however the general bundle is missing in sure points. Nonetheless, even this digicam isn’t on the extent of flagship Lumias. Whereas the Lumias misplaced the decision crown years in the past, the high-quality picture processing that outlined the Lumias (and the PureView earlier than them) was discovered over years of effort, so HMD has an extended street forward of it if it needs to problem the present digicam kings.
