Solana Mobile, the company behind the Saga phone that sold out in 2023, has revealed its next product: the Solana Saga Phone 2, or Chapter 2. This device promises to offer a more affordable and accessible way to experience the Solana ecosystem and its Web3 applications.

What is Chapter 2?

Chapter 2 is the successor of the Saga phone, which was the first device to integrate the Solana Mobile Stack, a set of tools and features that enable users to access and interact with Solana dApps, DeFi protocols, and NFT marketplaces. The Saga phone also came with a non-transferable NFT called the Saga genesis token, which granted owners exclusive access to rewards and giveaways from various Solana projects.

Chapter 2 will build on the Saga experience, but with a lower price point and a wider availability. The preorder price for Chapter 2 is $450, compared to the original $999 for the Saga phone. The product is expected to ship in the first half of 2025, and will be open to customers from different regions and countries.

What are the features of Chapter 2?

Chapter 2 will retain the core features of the Saga phone, such as:

• The dApp Store, which allows users to browse and use all their favorite Solana Web3 apps on the go, with seamless transactions and exclusive features.
• The Seed Vault, which securely stores and encrypts users’ seeds and private keys, and enables fast and easy transaction signing with a fingerprint sensor.
• The Solana Mobile SDK, which simplifies the development and distribution of mobile-first dApps on the Solana network.

In addition, Chapter 2 will introduce some new features and improvements, such as:

• A redesigned and modernized hardware, with a 6.67-inch OLED display, 512 GB of storage, 12 GB of RAM, and a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 Mobile Platform.
• An integrated secure element, which enhances the security and privacy of users’ data and funds.
• A new mechanism for rewarding and engaging users, which will leverage the Solana ecosystem and its community.

Why choose Chapter 2?

Chapter 2 is designed for anyone who wants to experience the power and potential of Web3 on a mobile device, without compromising on quality, security, or affordability. Chapter 2 offers users the opportunity to:

• Explore the Solana ecosystem, which is one of the fastest, most scalable, and most innovative blockchain networks in the world.
• Participate in the Web3 revolution, which is transforming the way we create, share, and own value on the internet.
• Join a vibrant and growing community, which is driven by the vision of a decentralized and open future.

Chapter 2 is more than just a phone. It is a gateway to a new chapter of Web3 on the go.
