Failing, not failed. Don’t give up! Things could get a lot worse, we’re nowhere near the bottom. They could also get better.

well i'm definitely shocked that the guy banned from operating a charity in new york because he scammed children with cancer would operate a shoddy business.

The website failed, went to an error page, and then charged my credit card the wrong amount of $64.70. I received a confirmation email saying I’ll receive a confirmation when my order has been shipped, but I haven’t provided a shipping address or paid the full $499 price tag. It is the worst experience I’ve ever faced buying a consumer electronic product and I have no idea whether or how I’ll receive the phone.

I look forward to learning more about how terrible these phones turn out.

There's a very high probability that the company will shut down before they even get a working product. All the pre-order money will have been spent on "research" and "salaries", with 80% going directly into Trump's pockets. And there will be fuck all anyone can do to get their money back. Scammers gonna scam.

He wasn't actually banned.

But it's golden and has a convicted felon's name on it. That should make up for the rest of the value right?

Which American companies actually manufacture displays, ram, CPUs, batteries etc. for cellphones in America?

Plot twist: there are no phones, the whole thing is a scheme to rip off people for $64.70. Enough money to make the scam worth it, not enough for people to put in the time and effort to reclaim their money unless their credit card will compensate them.

Fun fact, the alt right released a "Freedom Phone" after the jan 6 insurrection at the US capitol.

Spoilers: The phone was just brought from some no-brand Chinese company and then rebranded and sold for more. The "Freedom" is just called sideloading, which a Google Android phone could already do. And the CEO claim to have "build the OS" all by himself...

Like... some rich Millionaire trust fund kid with zero experience writing an entire android fork all by himself?

Its probably just spyware so the far right can monitor their cult followers. Once their leaders get into power, they'll just get purged like the brownshirts.
