Editorial report

HMD 101 technical sheet

The HMD 101 suits anyone looking for a basic, lightweight phone for calls, messages and simple functions. At 73 g, it is easy to carry, while the removable 1000 mAh Li-Ion battery can be replaced.

Its 1.77″ TFT LCD is very compact. The 128 × 160 px resolution, 116 ppi density and 30 Hz refresh rate are enough for menus and short messages, but leave little room for comfortable reading or viewing. The body measures 114.3 mm tall, 50 mm wide and 14.3 mm thick, and it has no rugged build.

The Unisoc 6533G is paired with 4 GB of RAM and 4 GB of storage. Storage can be expanded, although the built-in capacity is limited. Connectivity covers GSM 900 and GSM 1800, Dual Mini-SIM, microUSB, FM radio, an MP3 player and a 3.5 mm audio jack. Charging is rated at 2.75 W. The HMD 101 is therefore a straightforward phone for communication and basic media, rather than a choice for anyone who wants a large display, generous built-in storage or modern features.
