Doubao AI phones have resumed sales through ZTE Mall, but only a limited number are available, with no plans for expanded production. The nubia M153 model, in partnership with Doubao Mobile Assistant, has reopened its F-code waiting list application. Priority is given to enthusiasts who have not previously purchased the model, while those who have already bought, canceled, or returned the product are ineligible to reapply. The waiting list does not guarantee an F-code, as distribution will depend on questionnaire responses. Earlier, Doubao Mobile announced adjustments to its AI phone operations, restricting the use of financial applications. Additionally, rumors about ByteDance facing regulatory scrutiny for cybersecurity and competition issues were denied by sources familiar with the matter.
