There's something inherently valuable about defying expectations. Phones are "supposed to" look like the elongated rounded rectangle everyone pictures ... so when a new phone launches that looks more like a fancy drinks coaster, it's implicitly saying "hey, I do something different. I deserve attention."
With a square enclosure not much bigger than its 4-inch display and a brand better known for audio accessories than full-fat smartphones, the MindOne Pro from iKKO is definitely different. So it’s surprising how familiar it is, once you peel back its inevitably AI-encrusted layers.
