In a sharp move to reshape mobile, Solana Mobile just laid out its next big steps. The Seeker, its new Web3 smartphone, hits global markets on August 4, 2025. With over 150,000 units sold already, anticipation rides high. Preorders remain open. The $500 early-bird offer still stands.
Solana Mobile isn’t just selling a device. It’s building a path toward a new mobile era. The firm launched TEEPIN, an open and trustless mobile architecture. It also launched SKR, a native token to fuel the Solana Mobile ecosystem.
TEEPIN powers trustless mobile
TEEPIN stands on three levels. First, the hardware level. It makes use of existing Trusted Execution Environments available in today’s smartphones. These provide strong verification, all underpinned by cryptography.
Secondly, the platform layer. Here, apps and users meet without the walls of traditional app store gatekeepers. No gatekeepers. No fat fees. Thirdly, the network layer. A network of users and developers runs a decentralized layer that brings everything together.
Solana Labs CEO Anatoly Yakovenko states TEEPIN isn’t only new, it’s essential. “We’ve eliminated the necessity for central trust,” he explained. “With this, innovation has become open and permanent.”
Solana empowers mobile ownership
The Seeker device has a Seed Vault Wallet, Seeker ID, and a rebuilt Solana dApp Store. It’s not a phone; it’s an on-chain toolkit at your fingertips.
The native token SKR brings it all together. It drives action on the mobile platform. It’s not a gimmick; it’s ownership. The SKR aligns builders, users, and device manufacturers. No longer participating without a share. Everybody owns a slice.
Emmett Hollyer of Solana Mobile sums it up plain and simply. “This model turns the script on its head,” he explained. “Users don’t rent space on a system. They define it.”
The Seeker departs on August 4. Purchase customers must verify shipping locations to secure their devices on time. The information resides at solanamobile.com
