Turing Space Industries (formerly TRI or Turing Robotic Industries Corporation) is a mobile technology company which develops technologies based on decentralized authentication methodology, using static key exchange with an anonymous key distribution infrastructure.

Previous models

The first product released by the company was The Turing Phone.[2][3] After this the company published in 2017 the Appassionato model.[4]

The company manufactured its phones in Salo, Finland.[5] It used Nokia's old production facilities.[6] The company was named after Alan Turing.[citation needed]

The Finnish company filed for bankruptcy in February 2018 having about 1,9 million euros in debt. The bankruptcy was granted on February 5.[7] Founder Steve Chao told, however, that the company would continue in Salo.[8] The company was registered as defunct on January 14, 2020.[9]

HubblePhone

Turing announced its new phone, HubblePhone, in 2018. The designer of the phone is Finnish Paavo Pietola.[10] The phone is due to be released in June 2020 and is meant to run on Sailfish OS and Android. The price of the phone has been estimated at 2,750 $. Reviews have considered the plans ambitious, but because of the problems in delivering the previous phone models the successful release has been considered uncertain.[11]

The phone's app store works using only currencies. In the beginning, the store was meant to only accept the BitHubble cryptocurrency. The phone is also pre-ordered by buying BitHubble cryptocurrency with Bitcoin.[12]
