Tesla Phone Price Rumors

A phone with all the advanced technologies described below would cost more than a few thousand dollars. Updated versions could come down in price as more people start using this technology, but we would not expect the first edition to be affordable for most people.

Assuming the phone is real and that it would start relatively basic with just a few of the rumored features, it\’d likely sit at a more sensible $800-$1,200.

Satellite internet:

New phones nowadays come with 5G, so while a Tesla Pi 5G phone would be likely here, too, there\’s also SpaceX\’s space-based internet service, Starlink, that the company could choose to use (Elon Musk is the CEO of both). There\’s even potential for the Tesla phone to help finance Mars colonization, a company goal since its founding. But they\’d have to find a way to not only conceal the bulky antenna satellite phones have, but guarantee good service from such a small device. One theory is it would work where there\’s already a Starlink base, like in a building or, if it ever happens, a Tesla car fitted with the appropriate antenna.

Solar charging:

Tesla manufactures solar panels and vehicles, so this isn\’t a far-fetched idea. It\’s unlikely the phone would rely only on solar, but it could have a Tesla-branded case that enables some amount of solar charging.

Vehicle control:

There\’s already a Tesla app for phones to perform basic car functions: lock/unlock the car, control media playback, and summon the vehicle. This app would most assuredly be preinstalled on the phone, if not built-in to the operating system, for easy access directly from the lock screen or via external buttons. It\’s also possible the app would offer unique options only to Tesla phone owners.

Astrophotography:

Current phones already use AI and powerful cameras to help when photographing the night sky. Add that functionality to SpaceX\’s extraterrestrial focus that would inevitably bleed over into this phone, and you\’ve got a device capable of great photos of astronomical objects.

Crypto mining:

Other hearsay is it\’ll mine cryptocurrency. Musk has been public about cryptocurrencies in the past, so it\’s not unreasonable to assume he\’d want to embed this ability in a phone. While Bitcoin is more popular, and Musk presumably prefers the existing Dogecoin, the rumor is Tesla\’s phone would mine a new coin called MarsCoin (a name Musk himself has tweeted about). Some serious hardware would need to be implemented for this to work reliably.

Neuralink support:

The idea of computers interfacing with the brain is still essentially science fiction, and Neuralink is one of the companies working on it. They say they\’re \”designing the first neural implant that will let you control a computer or mobile device anywhere you go.\”…with the activity of your brain, just by thinking about it. Could the first phone capable of such a feat be from Tesla? An early iteration could run on any phone with the Neuralink app, but it\’d also make sense to see it here, considering Musk owns Neuralink.

Pre-Order Information

We imagine an announcement many months before the official release, and pre-orders could start early. But without a release date to reference, we have no idea when pre-orders for Tesla Pi 5G could start, if they ever will.
