The Trump phone no longer promises that it is made in America

When the Trump organization launched Trump Mobile wireless operatorHe also launched a flagship phone called T1 Phone 8002 (gold version). One of the main sales arguments of the phone was that it should be made in America. We thought It was unlikely that it was true. And we were right: in the past few days, The Mobile Trump site Seems to have been rubbed with all languages ​​indicating that the phone must be made in the United States. (As, for example, the huge banner on the home page which says that T1 is “made in the United States”. To name just one example.)

Instead, Trump Mobile’s website now includes what can only be described as pro-American wave gestures in the direction of making smartphones. The new T1 slogan is “Premium Performance. Proudly American ”. Its website indicates that the device is “designed with American values ​​in mind” and there are “American hands behind each device”. According to the main features, the first thing listed is the “design of the American fault”. None of this indicates, well, anything. He certainly does not say that the device is manufactured in the United States, or even designed in the United States. There is just … hands. In America.

It is not the only thing that seems to have changed on the phone since its launch last week. It was initially announced to have a 6.78 -inch AMOLED screen, but now the T1 site says it is 6.25 inches. The site listed the phone as having 12 GB of RAM, and no longer lists the RAM at all. It is not quite clear what is going on here – the Trump organization has not responded to a request for comments – but it seems that Trump Mobile can have Switched suppliers For T1. Whatever happens, it is certainly another reason to doubt that this phone is real. (The bad photoshopped image of the phone has not changed, however, that’s something.)

When Trump Mobile was launched for the first time, he also promised that the T1 8002 phone will be shipped in September. Now the only timing I could find was “later this year”. It is probably better not to hold your breath.
