Protectionism at its finest. Ask Argentina how it went with the Blackberry
or brazil, I have a laptop assembled in brazil, with a ram module that says made in brazil too, the only problem? the 30-40% tax on imported consumer eletronics that are there to make the local industry somewhat competitive
I call bullshit on this 100% still. This proves absolutely nothing. They didn’t even show a working phone.
Looks like a generic sub-$100 Chinese phone. Pretty sure the middle of those three “cameras” is fake, can’t really tell but the way it’s so much bigger than the others is a tell-tale sign with those devices.
I wonder why Trumpy doesn’t just ask his friend Tim Apple to make the iPhone exclusive to Dump Mobile.
TBF to OP, the article is pretty critical of the whole grift. If they ever get there at all, it’ll be a pretty basic mid-range phone with an American flag on it, that’s all.
I’d be surprised if even the final assembly in Miami is an actual promise.
AMERICA! Nyew Bee!
Honestly I’d be surprised if it’s not low end.
I was almost certain this would be the most vaporware of hardware vaporware.
It still is.
