Solana Mobile’s Seeker crypto smartphone ships worldwide with advanced blockchain features and Android OS. Pre-orders exceed 150,000; priced $450-$500 as an affordable Saga successor with improved design. Seeker offers secure key storage, built-in dApp Store, NFT access, and enhanced Web3 app support. Deliveries of the Seeker crypto smartphone from Solana Mobile began on August 4. The first batches have already been sent to customers in 57 countries, the company reported. Pre-orders for the successor to Saga have exceeded 150,000, which is expected to generate at least $67.5 million in revenue, with the device priced between $450 and $500. Seeker runs on Android and comes with several integrated blockchain features: Seed Vault: Secure hardware storage for private keys. Built-in dApp Store: Access to over 100 applications, including DeFi aggregators, payment services, and games. Genesis Token: An NFT granting access to exclusive projects and rewards in SKR tokens. The crypto smartphone is based on the TEEPIN architecture. It enables decentralized device access and app distribution using cryptographic attestation to verify software authenticity and enhance security. Solana Mobile also plans to add AI and DePin service support to Seeker. The developers position Seeker as a more affordable alternative to the Saga, which launched at $1,000 in 2023. Due to low sales (only 20,000 units), the company lowered Saga’s price to $599. Airdrops of two meme coins for device owners helped sell out the production run quickly in the US and Europe. After Saga’s launch, CertiK analysts identified a critical vulnerability that could allow users' cryptocurrencies to be stolen. However, the developers denied the existence of any security threat. Seeker launches with an improved design featuring a brighter 6.36-inch AMOLED display, a 108+32 MP camera, and enhanced battery life optimized for Web3 applications. \
