Trump Mobile's made-in-US iPhone 17 competitor is really made in China

The Trump Organization has launched Trump Mobile and plans to release the T1, a smartphone that it says is "made in USA" at the same time that the iPhone 17 will launch. The problem is, the phone was made in China.

-snip-

In a post to X by analyst Max Weinbach, it seems that the T1 closely resembles the T-Mobile REVVL 7 Pro 5G. The specifications of the display and the odd camera resolutions match up with the T-Mobile device, along with other details.



That smartphone is made by Wingtech, owned by the Chinese-owned manufacturer Luxshare. The T-Mobile version is believed to be built in Kiaxing, Wuxi, or Kunming, in China.

The T1 appears to be a reskinned version of the REVVL 7 Pro 5G, in a new enclosure and with slightly moved around cameras. This smartphone normally costs $250 at full retail, and even goes down to $169 on sale like it is on Amazon right now.

and assuming the position for their Casino-Hustler-in-Chief (R-Felon/Rapist),
and demanding that the rest of the country worship him.

foreign parts and equipment.

8. Which gives me an idea for his next grift: The Trumpmobile!

Entirely made from U.S. spare parts and the finest American pine, it sports a massive 1.5-Liter engine which powers the smoke generator. A thing of automotive beauty, designed by Elon Musk himself! Any color you want, so long as it's Rust-Oleum gold. Steering wheel and fourth tire optional. List: $86,700. Comes with a Certificate of Authenticity, personally signed by Autopan Serial #114106229.
