What I meant to say is that I don't know where the truth is, but even if he staged that particular time that's not the end of the world since the vaste majority, if not totality at some point in time, of the the channels eventually create scenarios to justify a narrative they want to tell SO I think most of the rage (I've read and heard the absurd about him) is unjustified.

    I already watched another Tech Channel dissect that phone.
    Basically, they take like 100 Samsung Fold phones that are worth way more, slap a really ugly fake gold skin on the back of it and then sell it to you as an Escobar phone. They sell them for cheaper than a Samsung Fold because they'll never actually deliver the product to you. They only deliver the product to influencers to talk good about it and how cheap it is, then proceed to fuck off with your money and bring out an Escobar 3, Escobar 4, Escobar 5, whatever suits their mood.
    They are scammers and should have their hands cut off and their teeth drilled open to expose the nerves to salt water.

      The question is how do they get the original Folds. Cause if they just buy them then this is an exceptionally retarded idea. Like You're getting a 5th of the profits in return. Unless this is overseas and they're buying the Folds with inferior rates on the dollar and selling them to Americans.
      If this is out of Columbia like I imagine they'd have to spend 7.6 million pesos for the price of one of them. I guess if the peso is worth its weight in human feces if they have enough and sell it to you for even just 400 USD they made a HUGE profit

He explains everything. If you don't want to believe that and would rather watch someone slander him and say he is absolutely promoting a product when he never actually said he was then go ahead. Unbox Therapy never once said go buy this phone. He even said it was just a Galaxy Fold 2 but with gold plating. In his video he said that. He doesn't even leave a link in the description to go buy the phone from the website. Nor does he tell you where to go. He's not promoting this product. Jesus people just research.
