Technologically, the only way to defeat Apple would be to have phones in a similar performance range. If these were made years ago, they would be generations behind.
This. The amount of people getting out the "pom-poms" for an "ElonPhone" and actually believing it would be successful, are mind blowing to me. There was a time when BlackBerry looked like it would own the business world forever. Apple was able to nearly make them extinct within a few years. it's because the product itself was WORLDS better than the BlackBerry. Microsoft, Amazon, and BlackBerry have all tried to dethrone the iPhone and failed. Until something truly better comes along, you are not going to break people away from that iPhone iCloud ecosystem.
And the phone would have to have equal build quality - which judging by the build quality of Tesla, would have to improve significantly. Tesla's are put together like shit. Build and paint defects galore.
>iPhone was WORLDS better
>build quality

Your thought process is acting under an old paradigm.
"Why is Elon Musk the richest man alive?
Who decides who gets to be richest? Is it the market? Supply and demand?
In the 1990’s a great many people had started using a computer tied to Bill Gates in some fashion, this is why when he was announced as richest man on the planet most could understand the causality of how it happened.
Can you say the same thing about the current richest man alive?
Really, how many SpaceX products do you use daily? Tesla has a 3% U.S. market so what is driving this growth? What does it mean to have that title of richest? What do they do with that wealth? Is it some kind of giant Scrooge McDuck tower situation filled with gold or is there an actual purpose to it?

People aren't just buying phones for Twitter.

Why did his money skyrocket so dramatically around 2020?"
