Trump T1 Phone: FCC Certified, Still Suspicious
29 Mar
Summary
- FCC certified a phone called T1 submitted by a Trump executive.
- The T1 was initially announced as a $500 'made in America' Android device.
- The phone has faced multiple delays and spec alterations since its announcement.
The Trump T1 smartphone, initially announced last summer, has seen significant development as it recently received FCC certification. The phone, identified as 'T1' in FCC listings and submitted by Smart Gadgets Global, a company linked to a Trump Mobile executive, has moved closer to potential release. This certification comes nearly a year after its initial announcement.
The T1 was first presented as a $500 Android device, marketed as "made in America" with a distinctive golden exterior. However, its launch faced immediate scrutiny regarding its manufacturing claims and component sourcing. The phone missed its original September release date, with further delays and reappearance in February accompanied by updated specifications and an adjusted, though still undetermined, higher price point for future customers.
