APPSO hands-on STEPX Neo: conditional booking, natural-language automation, maker tools

APPSO · wechat · 2026-10-13

APPSO published an in-depth review of STEPX Neo, arguing it escapes the 'AI bolted onto Android' pattern with a model-software-hardware native design, retro-futurist styling, a rear status display and a dedicated AI key.

Highlights: a unified semantic data layer plus dual-domain memory lets Amoo retain user preferences; circle-to-ask feeds on-screen content straight into multimodal Q&A and follow-up tasks; a one-shot flight booking with weather-based branching and a 1,500 yuan budget was decomposed correctly and paused before payment; scheduled tasks like a daily news digest amount to programming the phone in natural language. Office workflows cover Word/PDF creation and Feishu, and nearly 100 partners including Meituan and ride-hailing services are integrated.

For builders, StepStudio generates Apps/Skills/Agents from conversation and pushes them to the device for testing — the author spun up a tech-editor agent in two minutes; AmooStore distributes creations, and the phone can remotely invoke Claude Code, Codex, Doubao and more. Price: 3,999 yuan with 10B tokens/month for a year and a free-upgrade ticket for the first 10,000 qualifying buyers.
