## Quote — verbatim

> Mobile phones... are lightweight devices... a use case for Akash there would be lightweight processing on the mobile phone and heavyweight processing on Akash, on a decentralized cloud. So you can see how the mobile operating system can work in tandem with the cloud operating system... in a highly composable way, without the user even knowing about it.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Reacting to the Solana phone announcement; his example is games with high-end graphics rendered on Akash and streamed to the device. He extends it: "you can see a future where Akash, Helium and Solana working in tandem... deliver the user experience on a mobile device that has never been done before" [00:12:56], possible "in a year's time" once IBC connects them [00:13:38].
