Turing Phone is the Sailfish OS smartphone by Turing Robotic Industries (TRI) which provides end-to-end encryption for ultra-secure communications and a more sustainable production process than a regular smartphone. The device uses decentralized authentication to encrypt any communications and comes with its master public key and unique private key pre-installed with the phone. When a device is communicating with another Turing Phone, the two devices can directly verify their idendity, side-stepping the need to route it via a Key Distribution Center. The TRI declares that “A protected communications network that is entirely insulated from cyber-threats and privacy intrusions. Within this circle of trust, users can exchange sensitive data such as social security numbers or bank wiring instructions and know that the information will reach only the device intended,” the company says.[2]
At first the device was to run Android 5.0 which was abandoned in favour to licensed from Jolla the Sailfish OS with the Turing UI.[3]
Besides of robust in terms of security, the device body is made of material called “Liquidmorphium” which is by manufacturer described as an “unbendable” metal that’s stronger than titanium or steel and more resistant to shock and screen breakages.[1]
