The drug boss Pablo Escobar has just launched a super-cheap folding smartphone and has threatened to sue Apple for compensation of $ 30 billion.

Roberto Escobar, brother of drug trafficking tycoon and richest criminal in the history of Pablo Escobar, recently launched the foldable smartphone Escobar Fold 1. Unlike Samsung's Galaxy Fold or Huawei's Mate X, Escobar Fold 1 has a very cheap price of only $ 349.

After launching the cheap folding screen smartphone, Roberto Escobar also announced that it would compete with Apple. Roberto Escobar was an accountant for the notorious drug cartel Medellin, who spent 11 years in a prison in Colombia. After his release, he founded Escobar Inc. and registered as the heir to his brother's huge fortune, which is believed to be around $ 30 billion.

The new folding smartphone Escobar Fold 1 debuted for $ 349.

In a latest move to threaten Apple, Roberto Escobar plans to file a class action lawsuit against Apple. For a very interesting reason, it is that Apple is selling iPhones at too high prices to consumers.

In response to Digital Trends, Roberto Escobar said he would sue Apple on January 6, 2020 in California. Roberto Escobar has spent up to $ 1 million to hire a lawyer to prepare for the upcoming lawsuit, expected to demand Apple compensation of $ 30 billion.

Roberto Escobar believes Apple has no right to sell phones priced at more than $ 1,000, while he can sell a folding smartphone for just $ 349.

The folding screen smartphone Escobar Fold 1 comes pre-installed with Android 9, incorporating Qualcomm's Snapdragon 855 flagship chip, and a 4000 mAh battery. Escobar Fold 1's screen uses an AMHD panel of FHD + resolution, which measures 7.8 inches when opened – slightly larger than the Galaxy Fold with a 7.3-inch screen. Dual camera clusters with 16 and 20 MP resolution are arranged in the border located next to the screen of the machine when opened. Users will be able to choose 2 versions with 6GB / 128GB RAM and 8GB / 512GB RAM.

Mr. Roberto Escobar.

Notably, according to Roberto Escobar's statement, Escobar Fold 1 will have a much stronger durability than the Galaxy Fold, which has a screen and a hinge that is easily damaged. Because this smartphone is covered with a special layer of plastic.

Earlier, Roberto Escobar also accused billionaires Elon Musk and Tesla of stealing the design of their flamethrowers. Threatened to sue Elon Musk unless the billionaire paid out $ 100 million worth of shares, but so far no formal lawsuits have been filed.

So the threat to sue Apple is also thought to be a trick of Roberto Escobar, to attract the attention of people to the newly launched folding smartphone Escobar Fold 1.
