Deutsche Telekom has unveiled its groundbreaking AI Phone at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2025, marking a transformative step in smartphone technology. This innovative device integrates advanced artificial intelligence to simplify and enhance everyday tasks, eliminating the need for traditional apps.
Key Features of the AI Phone
Perplexity Assistant as Co-Pilot
The AI Phone is powered by the Perplexity Assistant, enabling users to perform tasks like booking taxis, reserving tables, translating in real-time, writing emails, making calls, playing music, summarizing texts, and managing calendars—all through voice or simple commands123.
App-Free Experience
Users can access the assistant directly from the lock screen or by double-tapping the power button, streamlining interactions without switching between apps25.
AI Partner Integrations
Google Cloud AI
Offers real-time object recognition and translation via the camera using the Gemini Multimodal Live API.
ElevenLabs
Enables quick podcast creation from text or documents.
Picsart
Provides tools for creating personalized avatars and artistic photo transformations123.
Democratizing AI with “Magenta AI”
For customers not purchasing the new AI Phone, Deutsche Telekom is extending these capabilities through its “Magenta AI” platform in the MeinMagenta app. This ensures access to cutting-edge AI tools on existing smartphones35.
Vision for the Future
Claudia Nemat, Deutsche Telekom’s Board Member for Technology and Innovation, emphasized the company’s mission to simplify technology for consumers: “The days of the confusing app jungle are over.” The initiative aims to democratize generative AI technologies while maintaining a focus on usability and security12.
The AI Phone is set to launch later this year, promising to redefine how users interact with their devices by transitioning from reactive tools to proactive digital companions.
