HMD Crest 5G- Sustainable Tech that you can repair yourself

Folding phones, flip phones, and triple-folding phones are surely some of the interesting innovations in the market, but a Finnish smartphone company is on a different path.

HMD, previously working as Nokia, are building self-repairable smartphones, which means that users can repair their own smartphones. And it is not something very expensive. Their HMD Crest 5G smartphone is one of the three phones that HMD sells with self-repairability options.

How's HMD Crest 5G?

I am very much impressed with the design of this smartphone, which is very professional and unique in its own style.

? Color options are Midnight Blue, Royal Pink, and Lush Lilac.

? You get 50 MPs in both front and back.

? The display is a big OLED. 6.67 inches.

? 5,10,000+ ANTUTU score for its UNICSOC T760 Octa-Core Processor

The Highlight- Self-Reparability

Now comes the important highlight of this smartphone, which is self-repairability.

You do not need an engineering degree to repair your phone. All you have to do is just buy the respective parts from the HMD store. Users can replace:

? flat batteries

? broken screens

? bent charging ports

? scratched back covers

Aim behind self-repairable phones

The main motive behind HMD’s self-repairable smartphones is to keep devices in use for a longer time, handling e-waste responsibly and reducing the environmental impact. This is something very inspiring and something that every smartphone brand shall plan instead of just focusing on revenue.
