- The phone exposes agent activity and permission controls through its operating system.
An agent-oriented handset
QbitAI reported on October 14 that STEPX had unveiled Neo, a phone built around its Amoo assistant and Step AOS. The report describes a system task panel and a rear display showing the assistant’s activity. The early-access package is priced at RMB3,999.
Tools and permissions
The report says developers can use Step Studio to build applications, agents and skills for the handset. Its described safeguards include visible tool-call records and confirmation prompts for sensitive actions such as payments and deletion. These are reported product features, not an independent security audit.
