The Nio Phone 2 aims to provide a seamless and convenient driving experience by allowing users to control various car functions directly from their phones, such as unlocking/locking, starting the vehicle, adjusting settings, and accessing the car’s infotainment system. The phone’s integration with AI will further enhance its capabilities, enabling smarter interactions and potentially more advanced applications in the future.
Under the hood, the Nio Phone 2 is rumored to be powered by Qualcomm’s latest and most powerful chip, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, which will significantly boost the phone’s AI and computational capabilities. There’s also a possibility that the phone will feature the overclocked version of the Snapdragon Gen 3. This will not only improve the overall performance but also enable the phone to support more demanding applications and features.Nio Phone 2 with AI features officially launching July 27
The phone was spotted on China’s 3C certification platform recently. The device is expected to feature a 5000mAh battery and a 100W charger. The exact fast charging capability remains uncertain at this point.
Nio’s venture into the smartphone market is seen as a defensive strategy in response to Huawei and Xiaomi’s entry into the electric car market. By creating a phone that deeply integrates with its vehicles, Nio aims to provide a unique and superior user experience for its customers, setting it apart from its competitors.
Looking back at Nio’s smartphone journey, the company launched its first phone, the Nio Phone, in September 2023. The phone came with an overclocked 3.36GHz Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, a 6.81-inch 2K AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, a triple camera system featuring a 50MP main sensor, and a 5,200mAh battery.
