It is also tipped to include an 8-megapixel rear camera and a 5-megapixel front-facing camera. It is said to have dual SIM connectivity and includes 4GB of RAM and 64GB of onboard storage.

The HMD Asha 505 is said to carry a 3,000mAh battery. It could ship with Android 14 Go Edition and run on an octa-core Unisoc chipset. It is likely to offer a USB Type-C port, Bluetooth 5.0, Wi-Fi, Hotspot, GPS, 3.5mm and FM Radio. It is tipped to have an IP52-rated build.

The pricing and launch details remain under wraps, but the latest leaks suggest an official announcement may not be far away. It is likely to be released as an entry-level smartphone.
