The much-anticipated Trump smartphone<\/a> has a new look. But the eventual release date is less clear than ever, and the phone’s initial “made in the USA” claims have been watered down even further.<\/p>\n

Trump Mobile, a cell phone company founded by Donald Trump Jr.<\/a> and Eric Trump, released an updated mock-up of the design of the T1 Phone, the company’s main Trump-branded smartphone offering.<\/p>\n

Though the phone is still gilded, it has some notable design changes, including a vertical array of cameras rather than the previous triangular design.<\/p>\n

However, there’s no longer any information on the website about when the phone might be released: The website simply prompts potential customers to “Join the Waitlist.”<\/p>\n

It’s the latest setback for the planned rollout of the Trump phone.<\/p>\n

When it was first announced in June 2025 \u2014 on the 10-year anniversary of President Donald Trump’s<\/a> first campaign launch \u2014 the phone was slated to come out in August.<\/p>\n

That release date has since been delayed multiple times, and a company representative previously told Business Insider<\/a> that the phones would be shipped at the end of January, attributing the delay in part to the 43-day government shutdown in the fall.<\/p>\n

That’s not the only change Trump Mobile has made along the way.<\/p>\n

Within days of the launch event last June, the company’s “MADE IN THE USA” branding was scrubbed from the website<\/a>, with the phone described as being “brought to life right here in the USA” with “American hands.”<\/p>\n

Now, the phone is simply described as “designed with American values in mind” and “shaped by American innovation,” with “American teams helping guide design and quality.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The much-anticipated Trump smartphone has a new look.
