Elon Musk gave a clear response to the Tesla smartphone claims that have been frequently voiced recently. In an interview with famous podcast host Joe Rogan, Musk said that Tesla actually has the potential to produce a phone, but this idea is not a priority for them. So, will the Tesla model smartphone never be produced?

Elon Musk denied Tesla model smartphone claims: “We can produce phones, but this is not something we want.”

Elon Musk made a statement on the subject: “We can produce phones because Tesla’s infrastructure is based on a Linux-based operating system. “This gives us the opportunity to produce a unique phone,” he said, adding that they did not want to make such a move.

“If Apple or Google do something really bad, like if they start tightly controlling the app stores, then maybe we’ll consider it,” he said, making a remarkable joke on this subject. Musk’s statements have recently attracted the attention of the media with his references to Apple and Google.

Musk, who made outspoken statements in his unique style, criticized the control power of the two technology giants and implied that a move that would limit the application ecosystem could restrict user freedom. According to him, in such a situation, Tesla introducing a new device to the market can protect users’ freedom to make their own decisions. So, although he talks about producing a phone, we can say that Musk’s main goal is to offer an alternative to a powerful controlling system.

Musk has previously openly expressed his interest in brain-computer interfaces (BCI) rather than smartphones. According to Musk, these devices will be the focus of the technology world in the future. Its investments in projects such as Neuralink are also part of this vision. Musk believes that devices powered by brain signals will completely change the way people interact with technology in the future.

“Phone manufacturers offer slightly thinner, slightly brighter devices every year, but this is not the real revolutionary step,” said Musk, and believes that people will make their lives easier with a much more advanced technology compared to today’s devices. In summary, although the possibility of Tesla producing a phone is exciting, Musk said that they can only consider this idea when a compelling situation arises.
