NexPhone Brings Three Operating Systems in One Device & Lets You Use It as PC
A new Windows phone but better.
Windows phones didn't have that long to impress consumers, but they did leave their mark on our memories. The device has suddenly received a spiritual successor in the form of NexPhone, a smartphone that supports 3 OS with the motto: "One phone, every computer."
NexPhone is built to run Android, launch Linux (Debian) on demand, and dual-boot Windows 11. After 14 years of development, its creator, Emre Kosmaz, is finally ready to share his vision with the world.
"Phone as your computer": the device is meant to combine several pieces in one and let you operate it with greater freedom than any other phone.

NexPhone has 3 modes:
- When you’re on the go: NexPhone is your Android phone
NexPhone works like a modern Android smartphone – fast, responsive, and clean. It runs Android 16 with zero bloatware, so you get a lightweight experience and plenty of free storage for the apps you actually want. - Linux anytime: launch a full Debian environment as an app
NexOS includes Linux as an app, so you can open a full Debian environment whenever you need it—even while you’re out and about. The goal is simple: Linux should feel like a real desktop-class toolset on a mobile device, not a toy. - With a reboot: NexPhone becomes a Windows 11 mini PC
When you need Windows, NexPhone can dual-boot into Windows 11, turning your phone into a true mini PC. And because the default Windows interface isn’t designed for a handheld screen, we built our own Mobile UI from the ground up to make Windows far easier to navigate on a phone.

And if you connect it to a monitor, it becomes a full desktop PC.
The phone works on Android 16 and offers a 6.58-inch LCD with a Corning Gorilla Glass 3 cover glass and 1080 × 2403 resolution. It has 12GB RAM, 256GB storage, and microSD support of up to 512GB.
Powered by Qualcomm QCM6490, the phone also provides a 5,000mAh Li-ion battery, a 64MP wide rear camera and a 10MP frontal lens. You can find full specifications here.

"NexPhone is the device I’ve wanted to carry for 14 years: a phone that becomes your Linux machine, your Windows PC, and your everyday Android device – without compromise on the idea. Reserving NexPhone is the strongest signal you can send that phone-as-PC should be the next standard," said Kosmaz, Founder and CEO of Nex Computer.
The device will be sold for $549, but Kosmaz warns that it will not replace fancy flagship phones at first. However, he believes this is a step into a brighter future.
