Report Reveals Trump’s New Phone: Expensive, Unconventional, and Foreign-Made
Recent reports indicate that Trump Mobile is preparing to unveil its new smartphone, the T1. Executives from the company revealed a near-production model of the device, showcasing significant design changes during a video call with The Verge.
Camera and Design Innovations
The T1 phone features a redesigned camera layout, diverging from the initial design shown on its purchase page. The executives demonstrated the smartphone’s specs, creating hope despite previous doubts regarding its release.
Launch Timeline and Production Issues
The smartphone’s anticipated launch date has shifted multiple times. Initially slated for August 2025, delays have prompted concerns about its future. As of February 6, the company’s website continues to state that the T1 will launch “later this year,” echoing last year’s claims.
Current Offerings
- Trump Mobile was launched in June 2025.
- The company offers a monthly mobile plan priced at $47.45.
- Refurbished Apple and Samsung smartphones are available, priced between $369 and $629.
Specifications of the T1 Phone
Initial specifications promised a robust device that includes:
- 6.25-inch punch-hole AMOLED display
- 50MP main rear camera with dual 2MP lenses
- 16MP front-facing camera
- 5,000-mAh battery
- Fingerprint sensor and face unlock feature
- 256GB of expandable storage
However, the model shown during the call appeared to have a larger display with a waterfall design and a different camera setup, including a 50MP front-facing camera and 512GB of storage. This version will reportedly operate on a Qualcomm Snapdragon 7-series processor.
Pricing and Reservations
The Trump Mobile website is currently accepting $100 deposits for the T1. The total price is set at $499 for those who secured a deposit. However, the full retail price for new customers will likely exceed this, remaining below $1,000. Further pricing details are yet to be announced.
Manufacturer Details
Despite initial claims of American manufacturing, Trump Mobile has shifted its narrative. The device is now described as “Proudly American,” yet it is reportedly assembled in a foreign nation, with final assembly in Florida. The executives did not clarify what “favored nation” refers to in this context.
Future Prospects
While there is no confirmed launch date, sources suggest a potential release in March. Trump Mobile continues to face scrutiny about the T1’s production and delivery timeline.
