Overview

• On June 25, Trump Mobile removed prominent “Made in the USA” banners from its website and substituted them with vague pro-American taglines.
• Spokesperson Chris Walker maintains that the T1 phones are “proudly being made in America” and labels reports to the contrary as inaccurate.
• Advertised hardware specs have been downgraded, with the screen size cut from 6.78 to 6.25 inches and RAM no longer listed, raising questions about a supplier switch.
• The gold-plated T1 Phone is priced at $499 with a $100 down payment, and its shipping window has shifted from September to “later this year.”
• Some experts argue the device may be a rebranded Chinese model and note that Eric Trump has described U.S. assembly as only a future goal.
