Jakarta - Chinese smartphone manufacturer Nubia announced a new step in the development of artificial intelligence on mobile devices by introducing direct integration of OpenClaw AI on the Nubia Z80 Ultra smartphone. This device is claimed to be the world's first smartphone to integrate OpenClaw natively into the operating system.
As part of testing the technology, Nubia launched a beta program called the "Shrimp Farmer Program" that recruits users to test the OpenClaw feature before it is widely released. Through this program, selected users can try the new AI system in everyday use while providing feedback for technology refinement.
Unlike most phones that run AI as a separate app or cloud service, Nubia embeds OpenClaw directly at the operating system level. This approach allows AI to interact with apps, device settings, and system functions more naturally and quickly.
ZTE terminal business president and Nubia Technology President Ni Fei called this device a "Gateway-type AI phone." The concept refers to a smartphone that serves as an AI control center capable of running various cross-application tasks.
This device also supports the ClawBot ecosystem which allows the use of AI based on certain scenarios. The system can automate various activities such as managing applications, organizing messages, to running complex digital workflows.
In terms of specifications, the Nubia Z80 Ultra is powered by the fifth generation Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Ultra chipset. The device is also equipped with a 50-megapixel main camera with a 35mm "Master Eye" lens and a 1/1.3-inch sensor that supports DCG dual conversion gain HDR technology to improve photo quality in high and low light conditions.
Nubia also provides additional photography kits for users who want to improve the camera capabilities of the device. This smartphone is marketed starting at a price of 730 US dollars (Rp. 12.3 million).
The OpenClaw technology itself is an open-source AI agent designed to do more than just answer questions like a regular chatbot. This system is able to connect with applications, files, and internet services to perform real tasks such as browsing the web, managing messages, scheduling activities, and running a series of automated jobs.
If this concept goes according to plan, future mobile phones could change from just "a tool that waits for commands" to a kind of proactive digital assistant. Imagine a device in your pocket that not only answers questions, but also completes tasks - from ordering services, organizing agendas, to executing digital workflows without having to open many applications.
