tl/dr: It’s a rebranded 2-year-old midrange Samsung HTC with a shell most people describe as piss-colored, a US flag with only 11 stripes printed on it, a Trump wallpaper and Truth Social preinstalled.
And still only available to media representatives.
Pretty much exactly what any sane person expected.
Reminds me of a scam by the son(?) of Pablo Escobar a while back where they sold the ““Escobar”” Fold (which was obviously just a Samsung Galaxy Fold 1) for $200 or something ridiculously low like that.
Of course it sold out within minutes but the only ones that ever received their phones were influencers.
It was never going to be made in America that was pretty much always going to be a lie. It’s like the whole US made routers only thing, it’s obviously never going to work because the US famously doesn’t make anything anymore, and certainly doesn’t make anything with chips in it.
This blew me away. I had HTC U11 and after that google or whoever it was bought out much of their talent and their next phones were garbage. I assumed the company died, but nope

Edit: Actually looks like it’s an HTC
Oh, shit, i remember that clusterfuck. Wasn’t it also with something something blockchain/web3?
I think they tried to make their own crypto currency
So it’s not made in America by Americans?
What a rip off I’m getting my deposits back.
It’s “assembled in America”, most likely the case is attached by Mexicans in a factory that pays bribes instead of taxes.

Honestly I’m surprised there’s even a device at all

So… The media bought into another Trump trap.
Color me shocked at 6.
Sooo… billionaires that have always been complying in advance to Trump and fascism in the name of profits.
