Just when it seemed Web3 had faded into obscurity, a new smartphone project called the Up Mobile is here to bring it back into the spotlight, now infused with the latest buzzword: AI. The Up Mobile, backed by the Up Network, is an ambitious attempt to merge Web3, AI, and blockchain technology into one device.
The Up Mobile isn’t just another Android phone. According to Roy Liu, co-founder of the Up Network, traditional app stores like the App Store and Google Play Store have “unfriendly terms” for Web3 apps. To address this, the Up Mobile will use software built on Meta’s Move programming language, enabled by Movement Labs and its blockchain technology. Liu claims this partnership will “make Web3 accessible to everyone, marking an era of consumer Web3 revolution.”
Unlike the NFT-driven Web3 trends of the past, the Up Mobile incorporates AI to enhance its appeal. The AI algorithms are designed to bolster security features like face and fingerprint recognition. Additionally, large language models (LLM) will run locally on the phone, assisting with productivity and organization tasks, thereby enhancing privacy and reliability.
The Up Mobile’s specifications are impressive. It will feature a 6.95-inch screen with a 144Hz refresh rate and FHD+ resolution. Powering the device is a MediaTek Dimensity 8200 processor paired with 12GB of RAM. The phone’s camera setup includes a 100-megapixel main camera, complemented by 8MP and 2MP cameras, likely for wide-angle and depth or macro shots. Completing the package is a 5,000mAh battery and 256GB of storage.
The Up Mobile is set to be released in October 2024 with a price tag of $699. Preorders will open on July 24 through the Up Network’s website.
