Nearly two months ago, HMD launched its Touch 4G – a hybrid phone which blends smartphone features inside a feature phone. HMD is now following up with another interesting device, which is aimed at children and was co-developed with Norwegian brand Xplora – an established player in the kids’ smartwatch market.

XploraOne by HMD is a similar concept to the HMD Touch 4G, but with a clear focus on being kid-friendly. While no specs or pricing for the device were shared just yet, we can see the design similarities with the HMD Touch 4G.
XploraOne’s UI
XploraOne brings a similar-looking compact touchscreen, selfie cam and home button on the front side. The back features a single camera and an LED flash. We can also spot a physical SIM slot on the left-hand side, as well as a power and volume rocker on the right. The top side appears to have an additional button as well as a 3.5mm headphone jack.

The teasers confirm that XploraOne can make and take calls, send typed and voice messages. It also features extensive parental controls and no third-party apps, web browsers or social media apps. HMD and Xplora are expected to share more details about the device soon.
