Editorial report

HMD Pulse Plus 4 GB / 128 GB / Global technical sheet

The HMD Pulse Plus suits anyone looking for a large-screen Android phone with a relatively low weight; its main trade-offs are performance and camera specifications, which are among the weakest compared with phones of its time. This version pairs 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of expandable storage with the Unisoc T606 processor. Its AnTuTu score of 223,000 is among the weakest of its time, making the memory and benchmark figures a substantial limitation for anyone prioritizing hardware.

The 6.65-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 720 × 1612 px and a 90 Hz refresh rate, both below those of most phones launched around the same time. The rear main camera has 50 MP, a typical resolution, but no optical image stabilization; camera performance specifications are among the weakest of its time. The 5,000 mAh battery capacity is typical, while 10 W charging is among the weakest. At 187 g, it weighs less than most phones of its time.

Android 14, NFC, USB Type-C, Bluetooth 5.0 and dual-SIM support cover common features, while connectivity is worse than that of most phones launched around the same time. Its NeoScore is 4.0. At launch it was among the cheapest, and it was fairly priced for what it is: a large-screen, lightweight option, provided performance, display resolution and charging speed are not the priorities.
