Taking another step into their mobile quest, Solana introduced their new Web3 mobile device – the Solana Seeker. They’ve been deep in build mode for a few months, and the team behind the project now reveals the results.
Here’s all you need to know about the new mobile device.
What is the Solana Seeker Mobile Device
In a September 19 post via X, Solana revealed the new Web3 mobile device called the Solana Seeker.
Solana Mobile introduces the Seekeer, a “definitive Web3 mobile device,” that brings the Solana ecosystem to users’ pockets.
In the presentation video, they note that the seeker is the one who understands that there is more than what meets the eye, someone who is not afraid and makes the choice to go into the unknown, referring to a quote by Alan Watts, an English writer, speaker and “philosophical entertainer.”
The device is designed to harmonize hardware and software. The Android phone has the following key specifications:
- A better camera (108+32MP)
- A 6.36-inch AMOLED display
- 128GB storage
- 8GB memory
- The new Seed Vault wallet
The device also has a longer battery life and a more accessible price, with the Seed Vault at its core, designed for top-tier security.
Introducing Seed Vault Wallet
Solana Mobile writes that the Seed Vault Wallet was created for the Seeker phone in collaboration with Solflare Wallet, a secure and powerful Solana Wallet.
This mobile-first wallet integrates with Seed Vault for seamless self-custody.
Key features include:
- Sending transactions with a double-tap
- A smoother and upgraded UX
Updated Solana Mobile dApp Store
Solana also noted that they have updated the Solana Mobile dApp Store with:
- Better navigation
- A streamlined way to track all user rewards in one place

The Solana Mobile dApp Store is now home to “the best Web3 experiences,” according to the team behind the project who reveals that Seeker exclusives are also on their way.
The Seeker Genesis Token
Official notes reveal that every Seeker device comes with the Seeker Genesis Token.
This is a VIP pass for the following elements in the Solana ecosystem:
- Rewards
- Access
- Content
For builders, it brings the following perks:

Possible Seeker Experiences
Solana mentioned that the interest from around the ecosystem has been crazy, offering a glimpse of the types of experiences that the Seeker device can bring:
- DeFi
- DePIN
- Payments

- NFTs
Overall, the device promises to bring the whole Solana ecosystem into users’ pockets.
The Seeker can perform the following:

Seeker Takes Solana’s AI Integration Further
The team behind the project revealed that Solana was the first blockchain to integrate AI and the Seeker device will take things even further.
Seeker users will benefit from the following:
- Using Alethea AI to generate tokenized AI agents with new or familiar faces
- Interactions on-chain with programs and the Solana community
- Unlocking new ways to engage and earn
Alethea AI is building Web3 infrastructure for generative and agentic AI.

- Limited edition assets

The limited edition assets will be available when Parralel Colony launches in the dApp Store when the Seeker device is released. Parallel promises to bring early access to the next generation of gaming.

In the X thread, Solana Mobile announced Airship by Helius Lanbs, a ZK-compression tool that makes airdrops over 4,000x cheaper.
According to their announcement, airdrops to the Solana Mobile pre-order community that once was $40,000 will cost as little as $100. Also, they can auto-allocate to Chapter 2 Preorder Token holders.
