Overview
- The Trump Mobile website has removed prominent “Made in the USA” banners and swapped them for generic patriotic slogans without production details.
- Key hardware specifications were cut back on the site, with the screen size shrinking from 6.78 inches to 6.25 inches and RAM listings disappearing entirely.
- The originally promised September shipping date has been replaced by an unspecified “later this year” timeline on the product page.
- Analysts note the T1’s specifications closely match budget Chinese models, fueling suggestions it may be a rebranded import rather than a domestically built device.
- Federal Trade Commission rules require almost all components to be US-made for a “Made in USA” label, yet Trump Mobile has offered no supply-chain transparency or comment on its sourcing.
