The device is practically a prettier Nokia 2660 Flip with a number of software tweaks and a major styling makeover. As expected from the Mattel collaboration, the pink color dominates the phone. The Barbie-themed device comes with a pink removable 1,450mAh battery, a pink USB-C cable, a matching cleaning cloth, and a variety of other accessories. These include two interchangeable back covers, a beaded phone strap, clip-on phone ornaments and Barbie stickers. The HMD Barbie Phone has a 2.8-inch main display and a 1.77-inch external display.
Inside, the phone is powered by a Unisoc T107 chipset with 64MB of RAM and 128MB of storage, expandable up to 32GB via a microSD card slot. The device includes a VGA (0.3 MP) camera, Bluetooth 5 connection, a headphone jack and a USB-C port for charging and data transfer. The software side is powered by the S30+ operating system in most markets, although the US version runs KaiOS. HMD has further enhanced the customization of the phone's user interface with unique Barbie icons, wallpapers and ringtones. The Barbie phone also includes digital wellness tips, a Barbie Meditation app, and self-care reminders.
