OpenAI plans to release its own smartphone with built-in AI in 2028
OpenAI, the developer of ChatGPT, has begun work on creating a smartphone designed to work with artificial intelligence technologies.
According to Ming-Chi Kuo, a well-known analyst at TF International Securities, the company is already collaborating with chipmakers Qualcomm and MediaTek to develop specialized processors.
Luxshare Precision Industry is the main partner for system design and manufacturing. Although the device’s final specifications and list of suppliers will be finalized in late 2026 or early 2027, mass production is expected as early as 2028. So far, there have been no official comments from OpenAI or its potential partners.
News of OpenAI’s potential entry into the hardware market has significantly impacted financial markets:
Qualcomm shares rose by 9%.
Luxshare shares on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange gained 10%.
Apple shares fell 1.9% amid concerns about the emergence of a strong competitor.
This move could radically transform the mobile device market, shifting the focus from operating systems to the deep integration of AI into the gadget’s architecture. While Russia is trying to circumvent sanctions to obtain Western chips, the world’s leading tech companies are moving toward creating next-generation devices where AI will not merely be an application but the foundation of the entire system’s operation. The OpenAI project could pose a serious challenge to the dominance of today’s tech giants.
OpenAI has unveiled a new AI model, GPT 5.5, which no longer simply responds to queries but can independently understand tasks and perform them without detailed instructions. In essence, this is a step toward a system that is less dependent on the user and functions more as an independent tool. The company emphasizes that this is not a cosmetic update, but a fundamental shift in how users interact with AI.
OpenAI has released a new version of its image generator in ChatGPT. This is ChatGPT Images 2.0, which features improved capabilities and support for searching for information on the internet.
