I got a Seeker phone and set it up yesterday. My son showed me his a month or so ago and I immediately wanted one of my own.
The Seeker phone is an Android phone, very similar to my Pixel 9 Pro in most respects, but also has a Solana hardware wallet and Solana dApp store on it.
I moved my Helium Mobile phone number from a second SIM on my Pixel to be the primary phone number on the Seeker. I got the Helium Mobile app from the dApp store on the Seeker phone.
I like the idea of a crypto native phone. It's like having a Ledger mixed with a Burner phone.
For now the Seeker phone is Solana only and that's something I personally struggle with as I'm chain agnostic in all things crypto.
But the Seeker phone is absolutely directionally correct in terms of where mobile devices should be heading.

Hi Casters. I wrote a bit about my Seeker crypto phone that I set up yesterday. https://avc.xyz/my-seeker-phone
I tried the Saga (the version prior to the Seeker). My biggest gripe is that they didn't use GrapheneOS. Decoupling the phone form Google is far more important than adding a crypto TEE-based wallet.
Will be curious how much use it gets. I haven’t turned mine on in weeks, but plan to re engage a bit in December. Wonder if we get anything new and fancy launching around breakpoint.
gm gm! How’s Helium Mobile’s service? I’ve been thinking about switching.
It is excellent. You can also port your primary number to Helium which I would do except now I am using it as my "burner number" ;)
Thanks for sharing! Switching to @helium
Helium is great! It uses T-Mobile for nation wide coverage (in the US).
Thanks for sharing 👍🏽
Are you earnestly chain agnostic? Also, why?
I guess I would say "why not?"
Jack of all trades, master of none… but I guess more importantly isn’t your job to be opinionated? Being multichain is one thing, being agnostic is another
Hi V.C
How does this work here
