At the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2025, HMD Global introduced two exciting new smartphones in collaboration with Spanish football club FC Barcelona: the HMD Barca Fusion and the HMD Barca 3210. The HMD Barca Fusion is a collector’s edition device featuring exclusive content, while the HMD Barca 3210 is a modern take on the classic feature phone, now equipped with 4G connectivity. Additionally, HMD launched the HMD Fusion X1, a smartphone designed with safety features for younger users. Pricing details for these new models have yet to be announced, but they are expected to hit global markets soon.
HMD Fusion X1: A Safe Choice for Young Users
The HMD Fusion X1 is designed with the safety of younger users in mind. It is powered by a Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 chipset and offers up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage. The smartphone features a 6.56-inch HD display with a 90Hz refresh rate, ensuring a smooth visual experience. Photography enthusiasts will appreciate the 108-megapixel primary camera, complemented by a 2-megapixel sensor, while a 50-megapixel selfie camera caters to social media users.
Equipped with a robust 5,000mAh battery, the HMD Fusion X1 supports 33W fast charging, allowing for quick power-ups. The device also comes with a range of accessories, known as “outfits,” which enhance its functionality, similar to the original HMD Fusion launched last year. Notably, the Fusion X1 includes HMD’s Xplora parental control service, enabling parents to monitor their children’s online activities. Features include location tracking, contact approval, app access restrictions, and real-time location sharing, making it a comprehensive tool for safe internet exploration.
Exclusive Features of HMD Barca Fusion and HMD Barca 3210
The HMD Barca Fusion is a standout device, boasting a 108-megapixel primary camera. While specific technical specifications remain undisclosed, it appears to be a themed version of the HMD Fusion X1. This smartphone offers exclusive content for FC Barcelona fans, including the club’s app, custom sounds, wallpapers, and greetings from current players. Additionally, it comes with a unique case featuring the signatures of FC Barcelona players, which glow under UV light, adding a special touch for collectors.
On the other hand, the HMD Barca 3210 pays homage to the iconic Nokia 3210. This feature phone, while lacking app support, allows users to enjoy a FC Barcelona-themed version of the classic Snake game, preloaded for nostalgic gaming. The Barca 3210 supports 4G connectivity and is designed for long battery life, making it a practical choice for fans who prefer simplicity. It features a single rear camera with an LED flash, likely similar to the 2-megapixel sensor found in the original Nokia 3210.

While HMD Global has not yet disclosed pricing for the HMD Barca Fusion, HMD Barca 3210, and HMD Fusion X1, the company has indicated that these devices will be available in global markets in the coming months. The collaboration with FC Barcelona not only highlights HMD’s commitment to innovation but also appeals to the passionate fanbase of the football club.
