HMD Global, the current steward of the Nokia brand, may be planning a trip down memory lane with its upcoming smartphone, codenamed “Tomcat.” Recent leaks suggest that the Tomcat’s design draws inspiration from the iconic Nokia Lumia 920, known for its distinctive “Fabula” aesthetic.
The Lumia 920, released in 2012, stood out with its vibrant colors and unique blend of sharp lines and rounded edges. If the leaks are accurate, the Tomcat will echo this design language, potentially offering a modern take on a beloved classic.
Beyond the visual similarities, the Tomcat is expected to be a mid-range device, powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 processor and boasting up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. It’s also rumored to sport a 120Hz AMOLED display with HDR10+ support, ensuring a smooth and vibrant viewing experience.
The camera system is said to include a 108MP primary sensor, a wide-angle lens, and a depth sensor, offering decent photography capabilities. Additionally, the Tomcat is expected to run Android 14, providing a familiar and user-friendly interface.
While HMD hasn’t officially confirmed the Tomcat’s existence, the leaks have generated excitement among fans of the Lumia 920 and those who appreciate the bold design choices of the past. If the Tomcat does indeed materialize, it could offer a unique blend of nostalgia and modern technology, potentially appealing to both longtime Nokia enthusiasts and new users alike.
