Neologism coined by Google to describe the Nexus One (and presumably other mobile phones) that supposedly transcend the "smartphone" category. When asked to define "superphone" at the launch of Nexus One, Google's Andy Rubin responded: "The definition, to us, is the evolution of this platform… The industry needed another term to refer to these innovations. We wanted to refer to it by something, and we think superphone is the right way to refer to it.”
