I'm calling it, it won't come out. I just doubt it will happen.
If it does, it's a rebranded phone wrapped in fake gold leaf, like the Pablo Escobar phone. https://www.pcmag.com/news/the-phone-from-pablo-escobars-brother-is-just-a-galaxy-fold-covered-in
There are numerous errors on the page, from a processor section that doesn’t list a processor
Shit-tier Mediatek. Calling it now.
the whole spec list and image was probably an ai prompt output
Oh for sure. If it does actually exist though, it's definitely gonna be a $40 Chinese whitelabel model.
$47
Too high. Tello is $25 for Unlimited in the states and is also an MVNO, and not owned by fascists(at least not openly).
Not only is it survailance tech, not that a normal phone isn't, but it isn't competitive. More trash from the Trump Dump.
Trump likes to pitch crap to gullible fools.
I know a maga grandma that will probably buy into this.
Please, please, please, let everyone using it have the area code 666…
The Kushners went into billions in debt (paid off by Saudis) just to keep ownership of 666 5th Avenue in New York. They might be proud of that.
"It's all computer"
That design looks like patent infringement to me
Insert parody of Raffi’s banana phone here
Did anyone read the TOS and such? Holy shit! So many red flags.
He's just a boy with a dream.
New day, new grift.
Just come out with the TeleScreen, and be done with it already.
Please God let some bug at the carrier level incessantly provision these T1s to a max of 1.5mbps because that would be so fucking funny.
So people who have this phone can be ordered by an AI for an organized attack if he is not declared a king?
Why do we need celebrity owned cell carriers? This article makes it sound like a bad thing Ryan Reynolds’s exited Mint, but at least the stars of arrested development still have a cell provider.
I mean WTF, I like that there is competition but what the fuck is wrong with us that we prefer celebrity endorsement to actual features, value, longevity, etc.
I know it’s a bigger question than what I’m asking but this is all part of the rot that our economy is experiencing. All vibes, all promises, all scams, this country runs on nothing but grift.
Can't wait to see the Truth Social bloatware. Also, do you think the applucatiin marketplace will be called the TrAPP Store?
I can't wait for a month or two from now and the flood of socials screenshots of morons not understanding why their shit doesn't work
