- Self-repair possible

- Expandable memory
- Not waterproof
- No jack socket
Okay, the HMD Skyline is not a Nokia Lumia. But just like the classic, it does a few things differently to the competition. This starts with its unusual design and continues with its repairability and its own detox mode. But don't worry: it doesn't run on Windows as it did back then, but on Android...

A solid, albeit somewhat heavy smartphone that scores points with its appealing design and good feel. It delivers acceptable to good performance in all areas. However, it is held back by a stingy update policy and a user interface and camera software that could do with some fine-tuning. However, the good repairability is an unexpected bonus.
This test report belongs to a different type: Skyline (256 GB, Neon Pink, 6.55", SIM + eSIM, 108 Mpx, 5G)
