The new HMD Luma is a 4G phone with a 50MP camera, 3.5mm jack and a microSD slot | Infinium-tech
HMD launched a new model called Luma – no, not “Lumia”, although that could have been cool. It appears to be similar to the HMD Vibe, although with a lower tier chipset.
The HMD Luma is powered by the Unisoc T615, which is a 12nm chip with Cortex-A75 and A55 cores, which are quite old at this point. The phone is configured with 4GB of RAM and 128GB or 256GB of storage – there’s a microSD slot available. The disappointing thing is that the phone comes with Android 15 out of the box.

Apart from the memory card slot, the phone has other “old-school” features like a 3.5mm headphone jack and an FM radio receiver. If you want to use wireless headphones, the phone supports Bluetooth 5.0. Stereo speakers are also on board for music and videos.
The Luma has a USB-C 2.0 port capable of delivering 18W to its 5,000mAh battery. Note that unlike the Vibe, this is a 4G phone (dual-SIM).
However, it has a better camera than the Vibe 4G, with a 50MP sensor like the 5G version of the Vibe. It also has an improved 8MP selfie camera (hey, we said “better”, not “good”).
The display is a 6.67″ LCD with 720 x 1,604px resolution. Since no refresh rate is mentioned, we assume it’s 60Hz.

HMD Luma is available in Titanium and Blue colors. We found it on HMD’s sites in Nigeria and Ghana, but neither site mentioned the price. A Teaser clip on Instagram Says the phone is “coming soon”, which makes it clear.
