StepX Neo AI Agent Phone Set for Oct 13 Launch
KEY FACTS
- StepX Terminal announced that its first large-model-native AI agent phone, the STEPX Neo, will launch on October 13 at 19:00.
- The phone's on-device generative AI service passed Cyberspace Administration filing on September 23.
- The STEPX Neo previously appeared at the 2026 World Artificial Intelligence Conference in July.
- The phone runs the agent-native Step AOS system, and its status bar can display the AI's working status.
- The Amoo assistant can integrate with Feishu, read calendar group messages, and generate PPTs.
PHYSIX OBSERVATION
Passing the on-device AI service filing means large-model phones are moving from concept to compliant deployment. The STEPX Neo makes the agent a system foundation rather than a single app; if the experience is smooth, it could force peers to rethink phone interaction logic, but the actual effectiveness of ecosystem integration still needs real-device verification.
