The phones have 6.67″ FHD+ 90Hz OLED displays, Unisoc T760 chipsets and 5,000mAh/33W batteries. Both are coming to India soon.
HMD has been launching Android phones under its own brand recently – the HMD Pulse trio, the HMD Aura and more recently the HMD Skyline, but none of those are available in India.
The HMD Crest the first HMD smartphone available in India. Even better, it’s the first HMD smartphone that is made in India too. The phone is joined by the slightly more capable HMD Crest Max, which has more memory and an upgraded camera.
In short, the HMD Crest is an entry-level 5G phone based on the Unisoc T760 chipset. It’s a 6nm chip with four Cortex-A76 and four A55 cores (2.2GHz), plus a Mali-G57 GPU and, of course, a 5G modem.
On the Crest, the T760 is paired with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, which is expandable via microSD.
The HMD Crest Max has more memory – 8GB of RAM and 256GB storage – along with one more improvement.
