The HMD Fuse mobile device was created in response to a problem faced by parents: most children's phones are either too restrictive, hindering the development of independence, or, conversely, too open, leaving children unprotected.

The new product from HMD offers a different approach — it grows with the user, maintaining a balance between safety and independence.

The device is equipped with a 6.6-inch HD+ screen with a refresh rate of 90 Hz, a dual camera, and a 5,000 mAh battery that lasts for two days. The design is modern and slim, with a textured cover that is pleasant to the touch. But the main feature of the device is the HarmBlock+ system: built-in AI that instantly blocks unwanted content right on the phone itself. Unlike cloud filters, data is not sent to the network; everything works locally without compromising performance or battery life.

Parents can set basic restrictions and then gradually give their child more freedom as they demonstrate responsibility. This approach helps to form digital habits and makes the smartphone a long-term companion rather than a temporary solution “for growing up.”

The set includes two interchangeable Outfits accessories made from recycled TPU. The first protects the smartphone from everyday bumps, while the second is equipped with a light ring that can be used for selfies and shooting with friends.

HMD Fuse is available in the UK on a subscription basis for £33
