Will Tesla's Pi model cell phone dethrone Apple's iPhone ? For Tesla fans, one of the most anticipated products created by Elon Musk is the Tesla Pi model smartphone.
However, the Pi model will compete with thousands of phones already established in the market, including the popular iPhone made by Apple.
Apple is the most famous smartphone brand in the world, as it sells as many phones as it can. The Californian company sold almost 200 million units worldwide.
There's no question that despite so much criticism, Apple is doing a few things right with its iPhones that are updated year after year. However, he is about to welcome one more competitor.
This latest competition is backed by the richest power in the world, which has infinite resources to launch its new product. Backed by Elon Musk, the Tesla Model Pi smartphone has everything it takes to be a massive hit.
Because Mr. Musk has a great record-breaking record in all of his creations. Tesla sells most of the electric vehicles today, while spaceX launches satellite into orbit at an exceptional speed.
He also takes NASA astronauts into space and then returns them like nothing. Musk also has millions of fans who undoubtedly would like to use a phone that he created.
This would be to link them with the other products that are about to be released, but the rivalry between Apple and Tesla has been increasing in recent years. Well, it is almost a fact that Apple is about to release an electric car.
Although this car is not ready yet and is solving production issues, there is no doubt that it is almost a fact.
However, something that many do not know is that Musk tried to sell Tesla to the Apple company during what he called production from hell, when the automaker was in a very deep crisis.
However, Musk never agreed with Apple CEO Tim Cook, and Tesla survived and later turned this terrible crisis around.
So what differences will there be between Tesla's Pi phone and Apple's iPhone, and what will be your best option?
Differences between the Pi model and the iPhone
Apple is famous for not making its iPhones, the company only designs and tests them in the US What it really does is hire production. Therefore, it has partners all over the world who manufacture its components, including displays, chips, camera lenses, and other things.
Even its biggest competitor Samsung has made batteries for Apple. The accelerometer is manufactured by Germany-based bosch SensoTech. Whereas the gyroscope is manufactured by Steam microelectronics based in Switzerland.
When it comes to assembly, Apple works with two companies: Foxconn and Pegatron, with factories in many countries. If Tesla wants to continue its tradition of assembling its own products, it could build its own assembly plants.
However, building a plant to make phones is very different from the car plant. From this point on we will compare the two phones based on what we know about the Pi model.
The camera
The camera settings on both phones are remarkably similar. However, the latest and most powerful iPhone. The iPhone 13 Pro max has three lenses on the back, and it has been revealed that the Tesla Model Pi phone will have four lenses.
The iPhone takes great photos including wide-angle photos, but the Pi can do even more. For example, you can shoot phone shots directly into the sky at night and take high-resolution photos without the need for long exposure.
This is a detail that Apple still does not finish 100% perfecting. You can even use one lens to take photos while the other lens captures video.
The screen
On the front, the iPhone is popular for its screen with a sleek border. In fact, Apple made famous the design of the black border where the front camera and other sensors are located.
However, while other manufacturers have tried different designs, such as an in-display camera, Apple has only reduced the size of the border.
Many people dislike the layout as it takes up valuable screen space, and for others it ruins the aesthetics. But if you like Apple's system, it's something you need to get used to.
However, the Tesla Model Pi will have no bezels. Which makes the screen continuous and pleasing to the eye. The catch is that Tesla has put the camera under the screen and out of the way until you need it.
Another thing the Pi model has under the display that the iPhone still lacks is the fingerprint scan. A technology that other companies already use, but that the iPhone has not decided to implement.
On the back, the iPhone has classic mac glass, a glass that is famous for cracking in the slightest drop or accident. So it is always necessary to put a new protector as soon as you unpack it.
The Tesla model Pi has a prominent logo on the back just like the iPhone. But the phone has the ability to change color based on sunlight.
This is due to the photochromic coating on the phone. Something that will give your cell phone an incredible touch and that you will never get bored with.
Charging and battery
The iPhone charges through a port or wirelessly. Without a doubt, it is the cell phone with the most complaints about how slow it charges and how long the battery lasts compared to other phones.
In the Pi model, wireless charging has not been fully confirmed, although it would be rare if they do not implement it. But what is certain is that it will include integrated solar panels, so you can charge it with solar energy, in case you do not have a plug at hand.
That just won't be difficult for Tesla, as it has incredible solar panel production processing power.
Processor
Apple continues to make improvements to its processor every year.
Although the improvements have not been extremely different compared to previous models, the latest iPhone has the A15 bionic chip. That has given a lot to talk about and that many Apple consumers have said that they have felt improvements compared to previous models.
On the other hand, Tesla has not released details about its processor. What we do know is that the Pi model will be extremely powerful, since it can be used as cryptocurrency mines.
Of course, at this point the Pi phone is known to travel much further than the iPhone. Since it will eventually be used on Mars, in Elon Musk's plan to colonize the red planet.
In this way, the marscoin (official currency of Mars) can be used for trade and earn a living. Only with your cell phone you can pay for purchases without having to use a wallet or cards.
Now, cryptocurrencies will not be the only reason why the Pi model will need a powerful processor, since it will also use technologies that have been in the eye of scandals.
Tesla's Pi model will use neuralink technologies. The neuralink will be able to read signals from the human brain by implanting chips in the brain itself.
According to Musk, it will not be for sinister reasons or to control people, because this technology will be able to correct some health problems and potentially can help people with language problems and mental retardation. Many people, of course, do not agree to implant chips in people.
Satellite connectivity
One of the rumors of the iPhone 13 before its launch, is that it would come with satellite connectivity, but this simply did not happen.
However, the Pi model will be able to connect to Tesla's StarLink satellite service for a high-speed internet connection. An internet that can be offered in any corner of the world.
The service is currently in beta version, but will soon be out of beta. The iPhone has a Tesla app that many Tesla car owners use to control their vehicles remotely.
However, since the iPhone operating system is not under Tesla's control, the app continues to restrict many functions.
The Pi model will come with full integration to Tesla vehicles and among others that are to come out.
Launch
Apple's iPhone has been around for years, and Apple hasn't tired of releasing new models every year or every six months.
However, Tesla's Pi model is still on the way, as Tesla has yet to finalize the features and refine the technology. But according to experts this will not take long to be available.
