Tesla makes electric cars, not cell phones. But does it have to stay that way forever? Elon Musk has already set up many bizarre start-ups and actually implemented crazy ideas. A smartphone would almost be too “banal”. When we look at this concept, which is worth seeing, it occurs to us: We were just missing a cell phone like this.
Tesla’s first smartphone: The idea for the cell phone design
What if Tesla ein Smartphone would build? How would such a device try to attract customers and how would it have an advantage over Apple’s iPhone? Only one at the moment hypothetical question, whose answer is extremely exciting. The designer Antonio De Rosa, who has drawn some ingenious Apple designs in the past, thought about this.
His basic idea: A smartphone from Tesla could and probably would Bringing together Elon Musk’s product world, just as Apple sees the iPhone as a link to other Apple products and services. This could actually work, after all, Tesla customers are just as passionate as Apple fans… Tesla has long been a cult, not just an electric car manufacturer.
The ingenious features of the possible Tesla smartphone
And so it would „Tesla Model Pi“ are also at the center of Mr. Musk’s extravagant products. Let’s take a look…

E-car control: It’s obvious that you should also be able to control your own electric car from the company of the same name with your Tesla smartphone, including everything from the air conditioning to the key function. So far unsurprising.

Neuralink connection: Now things are really getting crazy. With “Neuralink”, the Tesla founder has been developing and working on a so-called brain-computer interface since 2016, i.e. a device that establishes communication between the human brain and a computer. Well, one of these could come in the form of this smartphone.

App connection for the flamethrower: In case you’ve forgotten, Musk’s “Boring Company” is probably known for selling a specially developed flamethrower. In the future, it could be customized with a suitable app on the Tesla smartphone.

Starlink-Antenne: With Starlink, Musk provides fast internet via satellite. So far, however, this requires a separate antenna. But what if this were built into the smartphone in miniature form?

Marscoin Mining: Of course, you could also mine the cryptocurrency “Marscoin” directly with the Tesla smartphone. The latter has nothing directly to do with Elon Musk and Tesla, but the Space X founder is a real fan of the red planet. FYI: The special cryptocurrency is used to finance missions to Mars – exactly Mr. Musk’s thing.

Astrophotography: And of course, the camera system from Carl Zeiss would be so outstanding that it would be ideal for astrophotography. True to the motto: “To infinity and beyond.”
And what else would a Tesla smartphone offer? It’s clear, Solar cells are a given and Ultrasonic fingerprint sensors in the display are no longer science fiction. When it comes to the operating system, you would probably just have one Android substructure you don’t have to reinvent the wheel a second time.
The Tesla boss is already a crazy dog:
The bottom line
Our assessment: Even if there is currently only one crazy idea is, like a Tesla smartphone would find customers. Certainly among Tesla drivers, but perhaps one or two Apple and Samsung users would also change and buy the right electric car later. A win-win situation for Mr. Musk.
