A futuristic smartphone being developed by Tesla, the largest producer of electric vehicles in the world, could be called Model Pi. This Texas-based corporation has been mum about the alleged device despite several industry leaks and rumors. The phenomenon is keeping the new mobile phone development under wraps. Its production has also not been verified, leaving potential customers with speculations.
Insiders in the business predict that the company will release its first mobile phone in late 2023 or early the subsequent year. Tesla, which shut down its PR division in October 2020, makes news updates mostly on Twitter and other social media avenues. It is now much easier for them to do so considering the acquisition of Twitter by Elon Musk.
A number of business announcements have been made on Twitter by the company’s billionaire CEO Elon Musk, who boasts over 78.2 million followers. These announcements include the company’s decision to discontinue the use of Bitcoin and new features for its cars. About 13.6 million people follow Tesla’s official account. Here is what we currently know about Tesla’s smartphone.
Compatibility of the phone with Starlink
This Tesla Model Pi smart mobile phone is expected to have accessibility to built-in Starlink, which will enable its users to utilize the internet without relying on telecommunication networks that are based on earth. Note that SpaceX, which is another company owned by Elon Musk founded Starlink. Starlink provides low-latency web with broadband, which also happens to be high-speed to various markets. It makes online gaming, video calls, and streaming possible by employing a low-orbit satellite. It is best suited for areas where internet connectivity is nonexistent altogether or has historically been spotty.Â
Enhanced integration with electric vehicles
Specialists in this area of experts suggest that the new smartphone will be easily connected with Tesla’s automobiles, hence offering drivers more control with the press of a single button. Users will also be able to utilize their smartphones to adjust various aspects such as the media, and temperature. It will also help with unlocking and locking their vehicles.
Support Neuralink
This newest mobile phone from Tesla may as well feature Neuralink. Neuralink is a system that is known to facilitate mind-controlled device operation. Neuralink Corporation is a company co-founded by Elon Musk back in 2016, for the purpose of creating implantable brain implants. These chips are able to enable machines to translate the ideas of people into actions once the ideas have been successfully implanted. Smartphones and smartwatches are outdated technologies. The future is neural links, according to Elon Musk. This technology will make it possible for those who cannot fully use their limbs to operate cell phones faster compared to using their fingers.
Solar charging
Tesla, which also makes solar panels, is anticipated to include solar charging capabilities in the new phones. This might be a turn-around for the smartphone industry, which is currently having trouble luring in new customers due to a dearth of fresh features and innovations. The business also offers Powerwall, a battery backup device for homes. It enables consumers to save solar energy for use in dire circumstances, such as an overnight power outage.
The planet mars
According to numerous rumors, Starlink connectivity will enable Mr. Musk’s new phone to function on Mars. Mr. Musk said that it will take between 40 and 100 years to establish a self-sustaining society of one million people on Mars during a conference in September 2016. And it goes without saying that those individuals will require internet access.
What source of income does Tesla have the most of?
The phone’s potential cost has not yet been disclosed. With a market capitalization of nearly 868 billion US dollars, Tesla is currently worth higher than the combined capitalization of Nissan, Toyota, Volkswagen, and Ford. EV sales, which primarily consist of less expensive Model 3 and Model Y vehicles, account for the largest portion of the Texas-based company’s revenue. Between October and December, it posted its highest quarterly net profit. In spite of a global shortage of semiconductors and supply chain interruptions, the company achieved its first net profit milestone of 2 billion US dollars. Its net profit increased by about 2.3 billion US dollars, or roughly 760%, from the previous year.
