Mind One, the new revolutionary compact AI smartphone
Smaller, smarter, and with built-in global internet, iKKO Audio’s Mind One is the new smartphone that aims to redefine the standard of this product category.
iKKO Audio, the Shenzhen-based company already known for its Hi-Fi in-ear monitors and smart earbuds, is committed to creating smart, intuitive devices capable of pushing the limits of personal technology, and Mind One is the perfect example. Designed to be super-compact and smart, the new product is more than just a phone: it was created to meet the needs of creatives and travelers and to ensure “fewer distractions.”
With the size of a credit card, the new Android smartphone stands out from other products on the market thanks to its rotating camera and two integrated operating systems: Android 15 with GMS certification and the customized iKKO AI operating system, a lightweight secondary system designed to ensure greater focus. Just the press of a button lets users choose which one to use.

As the brand explains, iKKO AI OS is designed to help users stay productive by offering integrated tools such as “AI Podcast,” which transforms texts into real speech, “AI Meeting Notes,” which automatically generates meeting summaries, and “AI Study Help,” which allows users to receive information about a photographed subject, such as solving a math problem. The operating system works without ads, subscriptions, or invasive data collection.
At just 8.9 mm thick and measuring 86×72 mm, Mind One features an edge-to-edge AMOLED display with sapphire glass, more resistant to scratches and impacts compared to models on the market. On the back of the device, a high-quality 50-megapixel rotatable camera can be turned outward to also allow selfies, always guaranteeing the same quality.
Launched on Kickstarter with a successful campaign concluded in August 2025, Mind One is also available in a Pro version and includes NovaLink and an integrated vSIM system that offers free global internet for AI tools in over 60 countries (no SIM, no subscription) and full data connectivity in over 140 countries through easy top-up.
Another feature of iKKO’s new smartphone is the snap-in case: with a magnetic attachment ensuring easy docking, a QWERTY keyboard with Gboard technology, the case also includes an extra battery, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a digital-to-analog audio converter that guarantees high-quality sound without loss.
Mind One is also designed for developers thanks to the release of the open-source kernel software GPL v2.0, which allows users the freedom to copy, distribute, and modify the software, as well as 3D models for DIY case and accessory design, developed by the community.
The device relies on global 4G+ coverage because, although 5G is fast, in such a compact product, it leads to higher overheating, faster battery consumption, and less global stability. Given its size, iKKO opted for 4G+ coverage that offers better energy efficiency, stability, and real roaming performance.
With its ultra-portable format, integrated AI connectivity, and a philosophy focused on technology, Mind One aims to be the smartest and most compact phone available.
