OpenAI is reportedly building a smartphone where AI agents replace apps

OpenAI is reportedly exploring a smartphone built around AI agents as the primary interface, rather than traditional apps.

The concept would let agents carry out tasks directly, potentially reshaping how people interact with mobile devices.

The phone is said to rely on standard components from suppliers such as MediaTek, Qualcomm, and Luxshare.

A possible timeline points to design finalization in 2026 or 2027, with mass production targeted for 2028.
