HMD (Human Mobile Devices) has announced the launch of the HMD Terra M smartphone, aimed at a specific group of users, from field workers to outdoor enthusiasts. The phone features a ruggedized body that meets the strictest military standards for durability. The device’s display measures approximately 15.24 cm (6 inches), ensuring clarity while maintaining a compact design that fits well in the palm of your hand and in your workwear pocket.

One of the key features of this model is its flexibility. Although at first glance it looks like a classic rugged phone, inside it hides hardware that allows you to smoothly run essential applications and browse the web quickly. IP68 protection ensures that the device survives immersion in water and is completely resistant to fine dust, which is essential when working on construction sites or in industrial plants. The case is approximately 1.5 cm thick, which further emphasizes its “work machine” nature.

HMD also focused on durability and repairability, which is becoming a trademark of the brand. The Terra M is designed so that users can replace certain components themselves with basic tools, thereby extending the life of the device and reducing the amount of e-waste. The high-capacity battery promises several days of operation on a single charge, which is a rarity in the world of modern smartphones. Connectivity is provided via all modern networks, including improved signal reception in remote areas.

The HMD Terra M will be priced at around €285 in the European market, which puts it in a very competitive price range for professional equipment. With its ease of use, exceptional physical durability and thoughtful features, HMD once again proves that it understands the needs of practical users looking for a reliable tool for everyday challenges.
