    The creators of the ethOS operating system, Freedom Factory, just dropped details for their brand new gadget—the “dGen1”. This is the next-generation tool for playing with Web3 apps, managing decentralized finance protocols, and handling Ethereum transactions.

    So what’s cool about it? Well, it’s more than just a smartphone. The dGen1 runs off ethOS—a supersized version of Android—under the hood. It comes with an inbuilt web browser, touch screen, loudspeaker, and an extra display for transaction details. But, don’t count on it to replace your iPhone, as it doesn’t make calls or send texts.

    But the star of the show is the light node client right inside the dGen1. This means you won’t need any other sources to connect to the blockchain.

    The new device is expected to hit the market in Spring 2025. This makes Freedom Factory the newest player jumping into the mobile tech game along with other Web3 developers like Solana and Mysten Labs.

    In related news, on September 3, Mysten Labs revealed its own mobile hardware—the gaming handheld SuiPlay0X1. This gaming console, priced at $599, is set to launch in the first part of 2025. It’s designed to play both Steam’s online games and blockchain games based on Sui.

    Similarly, Solana has announced its upcoming Seeker smartphone. The company’s representatives are promoting the phone as a rewards-generating device, minus the reliance on memecoins. This is in contrast to its older Saga phone, which was popular due to the bonus of BONK meme coins for users buying the smartphone, making the $1,000 phone a steal.
