Status and Details
Preorder Status: Preorders are still being accepted on the Trump Mobile website for a $100 deposit, with the remaining $399 to be charged upon shipment.
Availability: The phone has not been delivered to customers, and the release date on the official website has been changed to a vague "later this year". News outlets that placed preorders months ago have not received the device.
"Made in USA" Claim: The initial claim that the phone would be "proudly designed and built in the United States" has largely been removed from the website. The current language is vaguer, such as "American-Proud Design". Industry experts are highly skeptical of the "Made in USA" claim, believing the phone is likely a re-branded Chinese-made device, as the U.S. lacks the supply chain for a fully domestic smartphone at that price point.
Product Details: The phone is described as a gold-colored Android device with mid-range specifications, including a 6.78-inch AMOLED display and a 50MP camera.
In essence, the phone exists as a preorder option, but the physical product has not materialized months past its initially announced release dates.
