The HMD Fusion was unveiled earlier this month, and now it’s become available to purchase from HMD itself in Europe. You’ll have to pay €269.99 to get it with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, or €299.99 with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.
The phone’s main selling point is its modular design – it has so called Fusion outfits, basically interchangeable covers that can add features like wireless charging, more rugged protection, a ring light, that sort of thing.
HMD is certainly not the first company to try its hand at the modular (or rather, in this case, more like modular-ish) game. None of the others have succeeded, which doesn’t bode well for HMD. But maybe it will be the exception to the rule, we’ll have to wait and see.
First-party Fusion outfits will become available between October and December, so for now you’re stuck only buying the phone itself. HMD’s Fusion Development Toolkit allows you to 3D print your own designs in case you’re so inclined.
All of that aside, the Fusion has a 6.56-inch IPS LCD screen with HD+ resolution and a 90 Hz refresh rate (cue us thinking HMD should have invested in a 120 Hz OLED instead of the modularity thing), a 108 MP main camera, a 50 MP selfie camera, and a 5,000 mAh battery with support for 33W wired charging. It’s powered by the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 chipset.
