Earlier this year, Musk said a Starlink phone was "not out of the question" and could be AI-optimized, but later clarified that SpaceX is not developing a smartphone.
A report by the Wall Street Journal, published on Wednesday, indicated that SpaceX had presented investors with a prototype of a device similar to Apple Inc.'s iPhone, but "slimmer" before the IPO. As per the WSJ article, this device would run on SpaceX's proprietary system, using AI technology from xAI.
The device would also include chips from Qualcomm Inc. according to the report. However, the device is reportedly still in the prototype phase, with no official name assigned, and it remains unclear whether it will ever be released to the public.
The report comes after SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell, last month, reportedly informed investors about the company's plans to launch a Starlink retail product for U.S. consumers and build its own terrestrial mobile network.
