Or computers.
Or are they all tied to Asian manufacturing, Foxcon or some other similar situation?

(14,265 posts)At least according to Overstock.com, the Samsung Jitterbug is made in USA.
Not exactly the phone I would want, but its a start. Still looking for a slightly smarter phone.

(4 posts)I don't know of any phones Made in USA. My boyfriend is very techy and says there aren't any.
However, I'm starting a project on October 1 of going one year wearing all American Made clothing and accessories. Someone asked me if phones count as an accessory. I don't think so. Here's the link to my website documenting my Made in USA clothing journey! Maybe it can help you find some places to find American made clothing, socks, etc.!
