It sometimes feels like you have to pay a small fortune for a phone that runs off of anything more powerful than a hamster wheel. Not anymore. HMD Pulse strikes that perfect balance between affordability, performance and repairability. And with a look this premium, no-one will guess the low price-tag. We won’t tell if you don’t.

Smooth operator
Jumping from app to app? The extended memory feature will help with that. Add another 4-6 GB of virtual memory and HMD Pulse will run smoothly. Real smoothly. So smoothly it should have its own saxophone soundtrack.

No more “where’s my charger!” panics
When it’s running low, that battery icon can feel like a ticking clock – you’re just counting the minutes until it runs empty. Well, HMD Pulse gives you up to 59 hours of battery life per charge. So if you lose your charger, you’ll have plenty of time to find it.

No wallet? No Problem.
Ever got to the till, only to realize you left your wallet at home? Next time that happens, HMD Pulse has you covered. With NFC, you can seamlessly pay for your purchases with your favorite contactless payment app. Don’t forget your keys, though.

RIY: Repair It Yourself
You don’t need a degree in engineering to repair HMD Pulse. Replace a damaged display, bent charging port, scratched back cover or a depleted battery. Just head to the HMD Repair Hub for spare parts and step-by-step guides. The power to repair was inside you all along.

Life’s too short for camera settings
The perfect shot doesn’t wait around. That’s why HMD Pulse is equipped with AI HDR and skin tone optimization for naturally vibrant shots. Point, snap and share. You won’t be disappointed with the results.
