How the phone ships
Before sending it, we go through every unit. It arrives ready to use — no endless welcome screens, no mandatory Google login, no carrier apps.
1. We prepare the unit
We start with a new Samsung Galaxy A16. We move it into Device Owner, install BLANK OS, and load the standard whitelist of 13 essential apps.
2. You open the box
Inside: the phone, a USB-C charger and a case. You turn it on, choose a language and connect to Wi-Fi. No Google login, no setup wizard.
3. You insert the SIM or activate the eSIM
BLANK supports dual nano SIM (Samsung Galaxy A16 hardware). You put yours in, the phone recognises it, and you’re done.
4. It’s already a BLANK
You see the home with the 13 essential apps. The notification filter is active. The block on unapproved apps is active. You don’t have to do anything else.
Why this is the clean route
No reset, no adb, no manual permissions. Everything that requires advanced enrollment is already done. It’s the difference between buying BLANK and installing BLANK OS on your own phone — that second path is still in development.

The BYOD programme (bring your own device) is in development. We’ll publish the validated device list as we test more. If you’re interested, join the waitlist and tick the box.
