HMD Global, the maker of Nokia-branded feature phones, has launched what it claims is India’s first hybrid phone — the Touch 4G. Priced at ₹3,999, the device aims to bridge the gap between smartphones and feature phones, offering basic internet connectivity and app access in a compact and affordable design.
The Touch 4G is targeted at users who seek smartphone-like connectivity at a feature phone price point. It comes with a 3.2-inch touchscreen (320x240 resolution), though the panel type has not been specified. The device features a 2MP rear camera with LED flash and a 0.3MP front-facing camera for selfies.
Instead of running on Android, the device uses RTOS Touch (a Real-Time Operating System), and is powered by a Unisoc T127 chipset — a low-power processor meant for entry-level devices. It supports basic smartphone features, but in a lightweight format.
Cricket updates, trending videos via cloud service
Understanding the popularity of cricket in India, HMD includes its Cloud Phone Service on the Touch 4G, offering quick access to live cricket updates, weather forecasts, trending videos, and more. These features are accessed via cloud-hosted browser shortcuts.
Additional features and specifications
The phone includes a quick call button for emergency use or voice messages, Bluetooth support, and Wi-Fi hotspot functionality. It is powered by a removable 1,950mAh battery with Type-C charging. HMD claims the battery can last up to 30 hours on a single charge. The device also comes with an IP52 rating for resistance to dust and light splashes.
It ships with 64MB of RAM and 128MB of internal storage, with support for expandable storage up to 32GB via MicroSD card.
Dimensions and weight
The HMD Touch 4G weighs 100 grams and measures 102.3 mm in height and 61.85 mm in width.
