tl/dr: It's a re-branded 2-year-old midrange Samsung with a shell most people describe as piss-colored, a Trump wallpaper and Truth Social preinstalled.
And still only available to media representatives.
Pretty much exactly what any sane person expected.
Edit: Also, the American flag on it only has 11 stripes.
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.
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... 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.
