Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 sits under the hood here, paired with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage, enough headroom for most daily multitasking. The 6.55-inch P-OLED panel runs at 144Hz with 1000 nits peak brightness, and HDR10 support means streaming looks sharp too. HMD Skyline price in Malaysia starts from RM1999, positioning it as a mid-ranger with a few flagship touches.
The camera setup stands out for this tier: a 108MP main sensor with OIS, a 50MP telephoto offering genuine 2x optical zoom, and a 13MP ultrawide. That's a more versatile combo than most phones at this price point, which usually skip the telephoto lens entirely.
Battery comes in at 4600mAh, with 33W wired charging and 15W wireless via Qi2 magnetic attachment, plus 5W reverse wireless for topping up accessories. HMD's also built this one to be user-repairable, covering the display, back cover, battery and charging port, and it carries an IP54 splash resistance rating. It comes in Neon Pink, Twisted Black and Blue Topaz.
