The co-founder and CEO of Solana, Anatoly Yakovenko announced the launch of Saga last year. The first ever Android smartphone on Solana Mobile costs around $1K and also has its own decentralized application (dApp) store for crypto applications.
How Is Saga Unique?
This crypto-based mobile phone will be available for users in the US, UK, European Union, Canada, Switzerland, Australia, and New Zealand. Also, this phone has certain specifications that include storage of about 512GB, a 6.67-inched OLED display, and two interchangeable rear lenses in the camera. It is preferably built with two technical components which include security mechanisms and Web3 usability.
The creation of Saga is purposely to make crypto products and services accessible through Web3 platforms enabling the dApp store led by Solana. However, this new gadget is based upon technology from Bay Area smartphone firm OSOM.
The uniqueness of Saga is its SMS (Solana Mobile Stack). SMS is a collection that incorporates the software and hardware functionality of the smartphone in the crypto world. It involves the security mechanisms that enable transmitting, receiving, trading, and storing cryptocurrencies on the mobile device.
Considerably, Solana partners with Qualcomm for a secure execution environment to separate wallet ownership from Android OS. Also, Saga ensures its own NFT token once its smartphone setup is done. The term ‘Saga Pass’ is introduced for the limited release of the NFT collection for whoever pre-orders – considerable for the first 10k users.
