HMD to join Nothing in modular phone segment with Fusion launch on Nov 25

Human Mobile Devices has announced the launch of Fusion smartphone in India. The company said that the HMD Fusion smartphone will be launching at an in-person event in Delhi on November 25. HMD Fusion is already available in other regions and features a customisable design using swappable back panels that the company calls “Fusion Outfits.” Users can use these outfits to add additional functionalities to the smartphone, including wireless charging support, a ring light for pictures, or improved durability. Additionally, the company has made the technology open source, allowing third-party accessory makers to come up with their own outfits for the smartphone.
