Solana's crypto smart phone is searching for niche in crowded field
Solana first unveiled its plan to gatecrash the telecoms space with a new Android phone called Saga about a year ago. It also released the so-called Solana Mobile Stack, a set of libraries for developers to build mobile-first decentralized applications on the blockchain. While most layer-one projects are targeting developers in the market for non-fungible tokens and decentralized finance, Solana is carving out a niche in an industry known to eat up and spit out challengers: mobile.
Today, Saga is now in the hands of just a few thousand, but it is already having an impact on the workflow of a wide-range of crypto native players from developers to venture capitals to even this reporter. We spoke with a few of them to find out how they've been using the platform. At first glance, the device looks like a typical Android phone, but a closer inspection reveals green accent buttons as well as a Solana logo discreetly placed on the back. It's not just the logo that makes it a "crypto" phone, but rather the functionality built in throughout. Approving transactions on decentralized applications with your finger print and seed vault, for example, is relatively seamless compared to using Metamask or Phantom on an iPhone.
