HMD Global has announced two new affordable smartphones that will be available on T-Mobile and Metro by T-Mobile.

To this end, the company has partnered with iFixit to provide easy-to-follow repair guides and Genuine spare parts.
In terms of configuration, the G310 5G is equipped with a 6.6-inch HD+ display with a refresh rate of 90Hz.
