HMD has announced the Skyline smartphone, and its the first Android phone with Qi2 wireless charging.
The Skyline also offers an apparently replaceable battery, a 144Hz OLED screen, and a flexible rear camera system.
The phone costs £399.99 (~$520) in the UK, but theres no word on US pricing yet.
Weve seen loads of HMD Skyline leaks over the last few months, suggesting a smartphone with a design vaguely reminiscent of classic Lumia phones. Now, the Finnish brand has fully revealed the new Android phone (https://www.androidauthority.com/best-android-phones-568001/).
Perhaps the most notable thing about the HMD Skyline is that it seems to be the first Android phone with Qi2 wireless charging (https://www.androidauthority.com/qi2-wireless-charging-3265223/) support. This standard allows for magnetic wireless charging much like Apples MagSafe charging feature, enabling faster, more efficient, and cooler wireless charging. More specifically, the new phone supports 15W wireless charging, along with 5W reverse wireless charging.
