Amazon’s head of devices and services says the company is not necessarily aiming to release a smartphone. He responds to direct questions with hedging, stating that a black-and-white denial would be accurate but also misleading. He emphasizes that the smartphone form factor is not going away and will continue transforming over the next decade. Rumors about an Alexa-enabled AI phone codenamed “Transformer” remain unconfirmed, with limited details known. The reported work included exploring both smartphone and “dumbphone” designs, with Alexa Plus positioned as central. He also points to new AI wearable form factors, suggesting device plans may extend beyond a conventional phone.
