  • Punkt unveils MC03 privacy-focused smartphone at CES
    January 9, 2026, 2:40 AM EST. Swiss minimal phone maker Punkt returns with the MC03, a privacy-focused touchscreen that follows 2023's MC02. The device keeps Punkt's privacy-first ethos, running the AphyOS fork of Android Open Source Project. The UI adds a Light Phone-style shortcut row. Data are split into The Vault, a vetted, secure enclave for privacy-focused apps (including Proton's suite), and Wild Web, which lets users install any Android app. Ledger provides granular permission controls to curb data exposure. Hardware is modest but solid: OLED display at 120Hz, removable 5,200mAh battery, 64MP camera, IP68 rating. European shipments begin this month; price is €699 / CHF699 / £610. Like prior models, MC03 uses a subscription model-one year included, then €9.99/CHF9.99/£8.99 per month, with multi-year plans saving up to 60%.
