The AI Capture Fusion function adds detail to zoomed-in images. Portrait mode allows you to take pictures with a focal length of 50 mm with a bokeh effect, and close-ups can be obtained using the x4 zoom function. The 50-megapixel front-facing camera is complemented by eye-tracking autofocus.
The new device has a 6.55-inch POLED display with a resolution of 2400×1080 pixels, a refresh rate of up to 144 Hz, and a peak brightness of 1000 nits. The device is based on the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset. It also includes 8 or 12 GB of RAM and 128 or 256 GB of internal storage. MicroSD memory cards with a capacity of up to 512 GB are supported.

HMD Skyline pays a lot of attention to the ability to repair a smartphone at home. It uses a removable battery. The manufacturer also claims that with this model, you can simply remove the back cover, unscrew a few screws, and quickly replace the screen. iFixit has given the HMD Skyline a 9/10 repairability score.
Other features include a personalization button. Users can configure it to perform one action when they hold the button down and another when they double-click it.
