Sales of Solana's Saga phone, previously considered a "failure," have surged with prices reaching as high as $5,000 on eBay. The surge in sales is attributed to arbitrage traders chasing a 30 million BONK token airdrop given to every phone owner. The popularity of the dog-themed BONK token has boosted the fortunes of the Saga phone, which previously faced uncertainty about its future.
Solana's Saga phone, a web3-focused Android smartphone, is being rolled out to make crypto products and services more accessible for users. The $1,000 device comes with a built-in mobile wallet adapter and a web3-focused feature, the Seed Vault. The phone has a "Solana dApp Store," where users can find apps for web3 platforms. However, the phone was sometimes slow, and the crypto wallet and NFT minting platform kept freezing. The phone is available for preorder with a $100 deposit, and deliveries have been pushed to Q2.
