After months of teasers, HMD has officially unveiled its Barbie-themed flip phone. The device is essentially a glamorized version of the Nokia 2660 Flip but includes several software modifications and a significant style overhaul.

As expected from the collaboration with Mattel, pink is a dominant theme. The phone comes with a pink removable 1,450 mAh battery, a pink USB-C cable, a color-coordinated polishing cloth, and a few other accessories. These include two interchangeable back covers, a beaded phone strap, attachable phone charms, and Barbie stickers.

The HMD Barbie Phone features a 2.8-inch main display and a 1.77-inch cover display. It is powered by a Unisoc T107 chipset with 64MB of RAM and 128MB of storage, expandable up to 32GB via a microSD card slot. It includes a single VGA (0.3MP) camera, Bluetooth 5 connectivity, a headphone jack, and a USB-C port for charging and data transfer.

The software is managed by the S30+ operating system in most regions, while the US version will run on KaiOS. HMD has also customized the phone’s user interface with Barbie-themed icons, wallpapers, and ringtones. The Barbie phone additionally includes a digital wellbeing tip, a Barbie Meditation app, and self-care reminders.
The HMD Barbie Phone is priced at $129/€129/£99 and is available for purchase today in most regions, with the US version set to launch in October.
