Play the full-screen AI carefully! ikko MindOne Pro review: Better than Octopus, built-in dual systems and SIM-free Internet access?

by YURI@MobileMagazine , 2026-04-01

The ikko MindOne Pro, which attracted widespread attention at the CES show, is finally available in Hong Kong. Created by the well-known headphone brand ikko across borders, this mobile phone is described as a “thin folding phone without folding screen function”. With its extremely lightweight body and unique AI functions, it breaks the dull deadlock of mobile phone design in recent years. The following brings you a detailed unboxing review of this topical product.

The most surprising thing about MindOne Pro is its size, with a nearly square proportion of 86mm x 72mm, the area is only slightly larger than an Octopus, and the thickness is controlled at 8.9mm. This size is very unique in today’s market dominated by large screens. It feels great to hold with one hand and can be easily put into a coat pocket or briefcase.

The body of MindOne Pro adopts a square brick right-angle design, and the middle frame is made of metal, giving it a solid texture. The back of the phone is covered with reinforced matte glass, which is delicate to the touch and less likely to attract fingerprints.

MindOne Pro is equipped with a 4.02-inch AMOLED screen that supports a 90Hz refresh rate. Since the screen ratio tends to be 1:1, it feels good when browsing social media or web pages. However, when watching 16:9 videos, wider black bars will appear on the top and bottom. This is a balance between portability and visual enjoyment.

Although the body is small, the side buttons are very complete. In addition to the common power button and volume button, there is also an independent camera shutter button and an exclusive AI function button on the top of the machine. It is worth mentioning that the fingerprint reader is integrated into the power button. Although the location takes time for most operators to get used to, the sensing speed is still sensitive.

The biggest highlight of this phone is its built-in dual operating system. In addition to the standard Android 15, users only need to long press the top AI button to switch to the self-developed iKKO AI OS. This interface is simple and designed for AI efficiency. It integrates a variety of mainstream large models including ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, and provides functions such as AI answering, translation, learning and real-time voice-to-text notes.

Even more groundbreaking is its NovaLink network technology. Officials say that in more than 60 countries and regions, even if the mobile phone does not have a SIM card inserted or connected to Wi-Fi, users can still use the cloud AI function through this exclusive channel. It is a very considerate configuration for users who urgently need to translate or query information in other places.

In terms of core specifications, MindOne Pro is equipped with MTK MT8781 eight-core processor, equipped with 8GB RAM and 256GB storage space. This specification is positioned at mid-range and is very smooth for executing daily communication software, simple AI calculations and system operations. The battery capacity is 2,200mAh. Due to the size limitation, the battery life is more suitable for users who use it as a “secondary device” or focus on AI work.

As for the camera, there is a 50-megapixel main lens on the back, which supports OIS optical image stabilization. The most special design is that the lens module can twist upward. When the lens is folded upward, the main lens can be transformed into a selfie lens. With the physical shutter button, the viewing angle is more flexible than that of ordinary mobile phones. The imaging quality is acceptable under sufficient light, and the colors are natural, enough to meet daily social sharing needs.

Summarize:

ikko MindOne Pro is not a flagship phone in the traditional sense. It is more like a cross-border product that combines extreme portability, AI technology and playful design. For users who are tired of large candy bar phones, are eager to return to one-handed operation, or need a second phone with powerful AI assistance functions, MindOne Pro undoubtedly provides the most personalized choice on the market.
