The upcoming HMD Icon Flip 1 flip phone has been leaked, with specifications and design details shared by @smashx_60 on the X platform on November 18. The leak highlights the phone’s retro-modern design, vibrant color options, and modest specs, signaling a continued focus on feature phones for users looking for simplicity.
The HMD Icon Flip 1 will be available in Magenta, Bleen (a blend of blue and green), and Glossy Black. Leaked images reveal a two-tone design, a textured power button on the right, and ports on the left, giving it a distinctive flair.
Leaked specifications:
According to the leaked information, the HMD Icon Flip 1 will support 4G LTE and draw power from a Unisoc T127 chipset—the same processor found in the HMD 105 4G announced earlier this year. It will pair the chipset with 48MB of RAM and 128MB of storage, adequate for basic usage. Running on the S30+ operating system, the phone will also support web apps, making it suitable for users seeking a no-frills device.
The phone is equipped with a 2.8-inch main display and a 1.7-inch cover screen.
A 2MP front-facing camera is included, but there’s no rear camera, reflecting its position as a feature phone.
Other key features include Bluetooth 5.0, an audio jack, a USB-C port, and a 1,500mAh removable battery.
While the leak did not confirm a price or launch date, comparisons were drawn with the HMD Barbie—available for about $130—indicating the Icon Flip 1 might fall within a similar price range. Design-wise, the phone also shares similarities with the Nokia 2660 Flip but adopts a more daring color palette.
HMD’s latest development aligns with its collaboration with Xplora to promote addiction-free technology. Not to mention, the phone appeals to those seeking a digital detox or a secondary phone with essential features.
While its launch date remains unconfirmed, readers can check out some of the best feature phones suitable for digital detox that are available now.
