The Trump phone is real — maybe, sort of, soon? — and I’ve seen it. Not in the flesh, but during an hourlong video call with two Trump Mobile executives who showed me a phone, and told me more about why it was delayed, when it might actually reach
buyers, and why its spec sheet has changed again and again.
Of course, there’s one thing the T1 Phone won’t be: made in the USA. Instead, the handsets go through “final assembly” in Miami, though Thomas is careful not to say too much about what that means. It’s more than “slapping a cover on the phone,” and apparently involves putting together the final 10 or so pieces. The pair won’t say where the bulk of the phone is assembled prior to that, only that it’s done in a “favored nation,” which essentially seems to be a way of saying “not China.”

From available August 2025 to September 2025 to December 2025 to 'later this year'

"Same coverage as the 3 nationwide phone service carriers"
Because Trump mobile is a mobile virtual network operator...operating on 'the 3 nationwide phone service carriers'
