Recently, many social networking sites were abuzz with the news that billionaire Elon Musk announced that the $299 Tesla phone with satellite connection "will be the end of the iPhone".
Many posts on social networks have quoted a quote said to be from billionaire Elon Musk: "A $299 Tesla phone will be the end of the iPhone."
In addition, the post also gives information such as the phone costs only 299 USD but provides global satellite internet connection, solar charging and seamless control of your car and home.
Speculation about a Tesla Phone connected to the Starlink satellite internet service and running the TeslaOS operating system has been around since 2022.
Under the posts, many people expressed excitement at this information because the price of the phone is so cheap while the features are very unique. But there are also people who are skeptical about the authenticity of the information.
However, PolitiFact, a website specializing in verifying shocking news online, has denied information about Tesla's $299 phone. PolitiFact is a company that has a partnership with Meta (Facebook) and TikTok to exchange information and verify fake news.
The post on the site said: "We have found no sources to confirm the claim that Mr. Musk said this. It does not appear in any credible news stories or public statements from Mr. Musk or Tesla. Neither phone appears on Tesla's website."
"We consider the information that Mr. Musk announced the Tesla phone to be false," PolitiFact affirmed.
Elon Musk: "Tesla has the potential and position to create a new smartphone better than any company in the world . However, we have no intention of doing that unless we are forced to."
Rumors about Tesla developing its own smartphone were clarified by CEO Elon Musk in a chat on Joe Rogan's podcast: "Tesla has the potential and position to create a new smartphone better than any company in the world, independent of Android or iPhone. However, we have no intention of doing that unless we are forced to."
"If Apple or Google start making negative moves, like censoring apps or trying to monopolize the market, we'll consider making a phone," the Tesla chief further explained.
Rumors of a TeslaPhone first surfaced in 2022, when host Liz Wheeler asked on her podcast whether Mr. Musk would plan to create a phone if Apple and Google removed Twitter from their app stores.
In May 2024, speculation about the Tesla Phone was once again sparked when it was reported that the phone would connect to the Starlink satellite internet service and run the TeslaOS operating system.
In June 2024, a social media user named Warren Redlich posted information that Tesla would cooperate with Samsung to produce a phone called X. Mr. Musk later responded that "it's not impossible" when asked about this possibility.
