A recent tip from one of our readers has brought an elusive device to our attention: the HMD 106 Pure. While this handset has surfaced on a Pakistani e-commerce platform, it remains conspicuously absent from the official HMD Global website. Interestingly, the manufacturer\u2019s site currently highlights the HMD 105 Pure<\/a>, which features a more traditional, dated aesthetic compared to this new discovery.<\/p>\n Visually, the HMD 106 Pure bears a striking resemblance to the HMD 101<\/a>. Beneath the hood, however, the hardware tells a different story. It is driven by the Unisoc 6531E chipset-a processor also found in the HMD 102<\/a>. <\/p>\n It is important for potential buyers to note that this device relies exclusively on 2G GSM connectivity. As global telecommunications providers continue to phase out legacy 2G infrastructure, the utility of such a phone is geographically limited. While the HMD 102 includes a rudimentary 320 x 240p camera, the 106 Pure focuses on a stripped-back experience, prioritizing core functionality over multimedia capabilities.<\/p>\n The most compelling aspect of the HMD 106 Pure is its aggressive price point. Listed at PKR 3,250 (approximately $12 USD, \u00a39 GBP, or \u20ac10 EUR), the device is remarkably affordable. Even when factoring in the local PKR 250 shipping charge, the total cost is comparable to the price of a premium latte at a high-end coffee chain. <\/p>\n Currently, the retailer offers the device in Dark Gray and Teal Green, though promotional imagery also hints at a blue variant. For those seeking a secondary device or a simple communication tool, the HMD 106 Pure represents one of the most accessible entry points into the mobile market today.<\/p>\nDesign Parallels and Technical Specifications<\/h3>\n
