    Most of HMD’s efforts, like that “repairable” phone are a joke. I’m not particularly impressed with this either, but it seems that the pogo pins provide standard USB, which could enable some fun hacks.

    They have microSD, audio jack, okay chip (Snapdragon 4 Gen 2) and RAM (4-8 GB), replaceable batteries and screens, and HMD has pledged spare parts for seven years.
