15. Sure, why not?

With enough capital and the right people, we can do anything in the US.

The problem, however, would be scaling the business to be large enough to be competitive, and selling enough units to be profitable.

Additionally, labor would be expensive as compared to other countries, which would increase unit cost substantially.

Therefore, a series of phone innovations, smart marketing, and cutting edge manufacturing methods would be needed.

It's a long shot, it couldn't be done on a small scale, and some deep thinkers would be needed in the executive suite to anticipate and or create improved technology, and to lower manufacturing costs.

So, is it possible? Of course. anything is. But it's probably not likely.

EDIT: Perhaps a successful strategy would be to concentrate on going simpler and less expensive, instead of higher tech and more expensive. Make the simplest basic phone that a toddler could use. Most people don't use half of the shit that is on their smartphone anyway. Concentrate on the market demographic that wants something that is simple and reliable. Talk, text, basic camera, period. As technology advances, the burden of "too many choices" becomes real for many people. Technology advancement doesn't always have to mean "more features".
