Step Star, a unicorn in the large model industry, is set to launch its new AI terminal brand, an intelligent agent system, and its first AI intelligent phone. This strategic move means that Step Star has become the first major large model vendor to take a substantive step in the practical application of intelligent agent hardware.

Currently, AI large models are accelerating their penetration into the endpoint side, and the next generation of AI terminals have become a strategic high ground for global tech giants. Previously, the large model giant OpenAI had publicly bet on this field and plans to launch its AI terminal product in 2027. By launching the AI intelligent phone ahead of schedule, Step Star not only positions itself strategically against international leading manufacturers in terms of timing, but also extends the competition of large model capabilities from cloud-based software to physical terminals and an integrated hardware-software ecosystem at the native system level.

The intelligent agent system, as a core highlight, is expected to deeply restructure the interaction logic and application ecology of the phone, evolving it from a passive response tool into an intelligent assistant with autonomous planning and execution capabilities. Step Star's early deployment not only breaks through the current bottleneck of homogenized large model applications, but also explores a feasible path for the large-scale commercialization of AI agents on the endpoint side, potentially triggering a new paradigm shift in the mobile phone industry and the large model sector.
