📕TL;DR
Here is a brief overview of the program.
This includes projects that have not yet been released, as well as projects that have been released in the past but are no longer in production at this time.
Below is a brief explanation of each one. (We will not touch on the specifications of the smartphone itself; we will focus on where the three web elements are incorporated.)
HTC 1 EXODUS
It is the earliest web3 smartphone. It features the Zion Vault, which separates the built-in wallet seed phrase from the phone's operating system. A "Social Key Recovery" feature was also introduced to securely send a copy of your secret key to a trusted friend or family member in the event of a broken phone.
It is also known for its partnership with Binance and was the first smartphone in the world to support the Binance chain.
In 2022, a smartphone focused on the metaverse called the HTC Desire 22 Pro was also sold. This smartphone also had a built-in wallet feature.
The HTC 1 EXODUS does not appear to be available at this time.
FINNEY.
