HMD Touch 4G launched in India: a tiny phone with a 3.2″ touchscreen, Wi-Fi hotspot, and 30-hour battery
|HMD has officially unveiled the HMD Touch 4G in India, a compact “hybrid” handset designed to sit between classic feature phones and full-blown smartphones. Think feature-phone body, smartphone conveniences: a 3.2-inch touchscreen up front, Wi-Fi with hotspot sharing, and front/rear cameras, all at a budget-friendly price.
HMD Touch 4G: a hybrid you can actually pocket
HMD’s pitch is simple: deliver core smartphone utilities in a device that’s as small and straightforward as a feature phone. The Touch 4G keeps the candy-bar silhouette but swaps physical keys for a full touchscreen, then layers on connectivity and apps you’d expect on an entry smartphone.

Who is HMD Touch 4G for?

Bottom line
HMD’s Touch 4G doesn’t try to win spec races. Instead, it aims to simplify: small screen, long life, enough smarts, and a price that makes sense. For those tired of six-inch slabs, this throwback-meets-modern formula could hit the sweet spot.
