Its clean, minimalist design includes a number pad, d-pad, three soft keys below the display, and home + volume keys on the side.

The company is also launching a developer program to facilitate additional apps.

Also new is a service plan option from the company, starting at $39/month with a two-year contract, covering the phone itself and service. Alternatively, it's available unlocked for $299. It has excellent support for all major US networks. It will be available in six color options, with the first batches shipping April 2027.
