Good luck with that.

You won't find any electronics that are not made in China.

Until you realize Samsung uses components that are manufactured in China.

Yep there's just no escaping it until countries are willing to produce it themselves. Relocating manufacturing to India or Thailand is just kicking the can down the road. It's time to start bringing production back to our own countries. It costs more but at least the money stays within the country.

The Librem 5 USA smartphone is an entirely made-in-USA device. The price reflects it, but there are options out there.

Edit: Odd that votes support the reply so hard. The only way to lower the cost of domestically produced goods is to support them at the initial higher cost.

$2K phone with 32gb of storage and a screen resolution that barely qualifies as HD.

I hope every "BOYCOTT CHYNA" redditor puts their money where their mouth is and buys and uses this thing.

Reddit will never put their money where their mouth is

That’s why they continue to post on a media platform that is 5% owned by Tencent

I have zero need for HD resolution on my phone or 32 GB of storage. The cloud is a thing.

I didn’t know this device existed but now I am considering one.

The number of advanced weapons systems with displays “that barely qualify as HD” and have less than 32 GB of storage is pretty huge.

I believe Motorola makes their chips in Austin, Texas but please don't take my word for it. Verify.

Also, I believe that Google Pixel phones with Tensor chips are also made in the US. I'm going to look into this one myself later today.

EDIT: It looks like Google's Tensor chips are manufactured by Samsung, probably also in Austin, Texas.

I genuinely do not think this is possible. You would slip up on accident eventually .
