Pre-orders opened immediately after the Guangzhou event, and full sales begin August 18. For now the phone stays in China.

South Korea’s hills once stood where steel skeletons now climb toward the sky. On a July morning last month, a small group of visitors stepped onto ground that crews had flattened from mountains. What rose around them was the first section of what SK Hynix calls the largest memory factory complex on Earth.

Production is set to begin in February.
The Heart X1 rolled down the runway at Plattsburgh International Airport in upstate New York on August 12, 2026, and climbed into the air on battery power alone.

The entire flight, taxi to landing, used roughly five dollars of electricity.
