Although a number of details have already reached the public about the spiritual successor to the Essential Phone, we never had information about the actual specs. Solana Mobile has changed that after updating its website.
If you need a refresher, after the company responsible for the Essential Phone went defunct, the former employees created a new company called OSOM. The OSOM OV1 was planned to be the new company’s first smartphone. However, we found out this June that OSOM had renamed the OV1 to the Saga and that it partnered with Solana Mobile for its launch.
We already know a few things about the handset like the launch window is expected to be 2023, the display size is 6.67-inches, and the processor will be a Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1. However, Solana Mobile has given us some new information in the form of the phone’s specs. Below you’ll see a table with all the information Solana Mobile provided.

Additionally, we know that the Saga will ship with a USB-C charging cable that comes with an interesting twist. On its Twitter page, OSOM revealed earlier this year that this charging cable will have a toggle that lets users switch between charging-only and data transfer modes. It also revealed on Twitter that the Saga phone would be protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus.
