He'd definitely name it "pi hole" and think it's fucking brilliant and funny. "Heheh, we went, uhmmm, so we decided..... to use a uhm folding model so...so you could... uhm.. 'shut your hehe pi hole!' Heeehe he he he he."

And it will have a fart noises for notifications option.

It must be true because if they were going to make a phone, we would have been waiting 10 years for it to show up.

ComicsEtAl 2025-10-15 18:10

Doesn’t matter to me if it’s real. As I am fond of saying, I will never knowingly purchase any product or service from any company owned or controlled by Elon Musk.

>"The phone was said to feature new technologies, including free Starlink internet, **built-in charging**, and an advanced security system." ...doesn't every phone have that? >"However, there has been no official announcement from Tesla about a phone. When asked about the rumours, xAI’s AI, Grok, said:" This is not a serious article.

"doesn't every phone have that" If they mean as opposed to removing batteries to charge them, built-in is certainly the norm these days. Old cell phones you'd remove batteries and charge them. Normal accessories you'd get would be a charger, two battery packs, and a wired adapter to use in place of the battery to plug into a cigarette lighter in your car. People didn't use cell phones indoors much in those days, because everyplace had land lines. They may be referring to a built-in transformer, to convert AC to DC, but that would be super weird. My guess is they meant wireless charging, and used the wrong term.

foo-bar-25 2025-10-15 18:23

Another attempt at distraction from the inevitable.

MagnaCumLoudly 2025-10-15 18:28

He’d be telling us about how it would revolutionize communication and is worth a trillion dollars in market cap and we’ll have it by next year

Calkky 2025-10-15 18:28

Seems even more likely because another technology has been using that name for a long time: [https://pi-hole.net](https://pi-hole.net)

GroceryBright 2025-10-15 18:29

Didn’t he demo a Tesla Phone prototype 10 years ago which was going to be released “soon” and was going to take Apples business? I think it was around the time Tim Cook told him to beat it when he wanted to become Apple’s CEO for him to accept a Tesla buyout

gwenver 2025-10-15 18:30

Elon starts rumor then denies it. All part of the pump...

needssomefun 2025-10-15 18:31

Is he in competition to make complete junk in as many sectors of the economy as possible?

BringBackUsenet 2025-10-15 18:33

I don't recall such a thing but running his mouth recklessly like that is in tune with his (lack of) character. I almost laughed when I saw that he was being forced to buy Twitter after making comments about it.

fonetik 2025-10-15 18:39

But he would be holding a pie the same way he held that stupid sink.

cahrg 2025-10-15 18:49

If you can carry a Starlink antenna with your phone, you can carry a suitcase with a huge battery and charge your phone from it. Check mate 4D chess

audiopollution 2025-10-15 19:09

He’s never done that.

lucky_luke_nmg 2025-10-15 19:17

What about CyberTruck?

razor_train 2025-10-15 19:19

And SpaceX will buy all of them.

Chris_0288 2025-10-15 19:24

Is Tesla now a mobile phone company too?! Amazing stuff….

StellarJayZ 2025-10-15 19:26

Yeah, I have starlink. Don’t forget the terminal that takes up half a small shelf.

ringobob 2025-10-15 19:49

I'm thinking back to the late 90s, even then I can't remember having to remove a battery to charge it. Like that brick-like Motorola flip phone everyone had, I think the charging stand could accommodate the battery either on its own or in the phone. But maybe you're talking about even earlier than that.

mrbuttsavage 2025-10-15 19:50

They can't even make a new car. They definitely don't have the staff to build a phone unless it was some rebranded phone.

slip_cougan 2025-10-15 19:50

I've named it first - xPhone & phoneX. I have dibs.

Charming-Tea644 2025-10-15 19:59

FREE BEER TOMORROW, THATS ELON

I-Pacer 2025-10-15 20:03

He didn’t demo anything, but he did make a Tweet along the lines of “we’ll release a Tesla phone and it’ll drive Apple out of business.” I seem to remember one of the replies went along the lines of “How are you driving Apple out of business? Are you going to buy it and take over as CEO?”

Pancheel 2025-10-15 20:33

Archeology cellphone conversation here 😅

bobi2393 2025-10-15 21:02

Yeah, I was thinking mid/late '80s, but on reflection, I think the chargers could charge the battery separately or charge it with the phone's base station still attached (some early cell phones used coil-corded handsets wired to the transceiver and power source).

k-mcm 2025-10-15 22:18

Building a phone is easy. Pretty much every Chinese, Korean, and Taiwanese company is doing it.  They're all the same boring hardware with differently shaped camera bumps. The OS is hard. Building an OS and not destroying it with self-interest seems impossible. If anyone can do it, it's not Musk.

scarr3g 2025-10-15 22:49

It'll have new, innovative features like a touch screen, wireless charging, front AND rear cameras, etc. It would, essentially, just be a sharp cornered iPhone.

wongl888 2025-10-15 23:23

They certainly cannot make auto wipers that function properly.

RicTicTocs 2025-10-16 01:22

But tricorder functionality would be coming in 18 months if you pay $10,000 for it now.

scarr3g 2025-10-16 01:31

Fun fact, a LOT of tricorder functionality is actually available now, though an app on android. These little black boxes have a ton of sensors, many most people don't even realize, and there are a few free apps that utilize them all.

MrKafoops 2025-10-16 02:28

Tesla cult, after inventing the electric car and rocktships, Elmo the genius single handedly invents the mobile phone.

Loud-Comfortable-827 2025-10-16 03:05

nobody has put down $100 deposit so the 7 year countdown hasn't even begun

GarysCrispLettuce 2025-10-16 03:59

...that bursts into flames

TheStoolSampler 2025-10-16 04:15

Sharp cornered. 🤣 musk will refer to the eventual severed fingers as the "reduced digit" feature.

akb443 2025-10-16 05:37

There are also rumors about robots, semi, roadster, a functioning pick up and a burger joint. lol this company is a mess

Apprehensive-Box-8 2025-10-16 05:44

Most advanced feature you can buy for an additional 5k: FSC - Full Self Calling (supervised). Based on sensory input and GPS data it starts calls directly from your pocket (subject to regulatory approval).

szornyu 2025-10-16 08:24

Elon has been cancelled.

AlphatierchenX 2025-10-16 11:13

The [x Phone](https://youtu.be/9-nezImUP0w?si=FCWeuJe5liEbGA5m) already exists!

slip_cougan 2025-10-16 11:45

Dammit!

Normal-Selection1537 2025-10-16 11:53

Who needs rain sensors that cost under a dollar when you can use a camera less well for everything?

Vegetable_Coat_7071 2025-10-16 19:52

Isn’t that a butt dial ??😂

Apprehensive-Box-8 2025-10-16 20:23

Bazinga! ;)

Advanced-Prototype 2025-10-17 16:38

Let me guess: this phone is the only way to save humanity from extinction.

[deleted] 2025-10-17 22:33

How can you believe a single thing this guy says one way or the other.

moutonbleu 2025-10-19 17:00

Anyone remember the Amazon Fire Phone?

DeadlyMosquito 2025-11-05 12:17

It is a hoax and the supposed tweet has been proven fake. So I would say nothing happened to it because it never existed.

DeadlyMosquito 2025-11-05 12:18

No. It is a hoax and the supposed tweet has been proven fake. So I would say nothing happened to it because it never existed.

horripilante1963 2025-11-13 22:47

👍🏿😃

DEFiTravelor 2025-11-30 23:01

Your from a different timeline as well ! Cool I thought I was the only one

Wild_Revolution8356 2025-12-06 21:31

Well if you actually invest. You'd know Tesla has been the best investment to have in the past 5 years, and continues to outperform amy other company by a long shot. But cute comment.

[deleted] 2025-12-11 01:02

He is like the richest tard?

Ill_Lunch9221 2026-01-14 00:06

It's a SCAM. I know Elon and he sold me one. It's in the Court System. He couldn't invent anything. His son, Damian Musk, is working on it though. Keep watching cause he told me yesterday he's almost done with it. There's no link to Starlink, but Damian thinks he can sell it for $50.00

Ill_Lunch9221 2026-01-14 00:08

Lol Exactly. Anything to cheat us out of money

Ill_Lunch9221 2026-01-14 00:08

Yes lol

Ill_Lunch9221 2026-01-14 00:11

Tesla stock has been down the last two yrs

Ill_Lunch9221 2026-01-14 00:19

He is a real slimy person. I can hardly wait until he goes to prison. His ex is fixing to take him back to Court. She wants Tesla, or at least 90%. He's still behind on Child Support. He went to Court in Texas and TRIED to get child support moved to TX. Those kids don't live in TX. The small ones do. He only pays them the state minimum. The jerk

Wild_Revolution8356 2026-01-14 00:20

No it hasn't. Theres been multiple splits. The last split that happened was a 3 for 1 split. Since then its 4x since its last bottom.

Ill_Lunch9221 2026-01-14 00:20

Stocks are down

Ill_Lunch9221 2026-01-14 00:30

Your comment cracked me up. If I could figure out how to do a gift, I would

Ill_Lunch9221 2026-01-29 08:58

You invest differently. Mine is down
