History
The brand's creation was announced on June 16, 2025, at Trump Tower in New York City by Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, Donald Trump's sons. This date was chosen because it was the 10th anniversary of the announcement of Trump's 2016 presidential campaign.[7][8] At the launch of the company's website it included a coverage map with the "Gulf of Mexico", instead of "Gulf of America" contrary to an executive order signed by President Trump. The map was removed from the Trump Mobile website.[9] About a week after the initial announcement that the smartphones would be exclusively manufactured within the United States, Trump Mobile removed those references from its website[10][11] after analysts pointed to the lack of existing U.S. facilities for such manufacturing.[12][13] The T1 Phone launch date was changed from September 2025 to "later this year [2025]."[14][15]

T1 Phone
The T1 Phone is a gold-colored smartphone[16][17][18][19] that is likely to be a reskinned version of the Chinese-made Wingtech Revvl 7 Pro 5G.[12][20] In the United States, the Wingtech Revvl 7 Pro 5G is sold by T-Mobile.[21]
T1 Mobile
T1 Mobile is a mobile virtual network operator with free calls to over 100 countries and a cost of $47.45 a month, called "The 47 Plan". The cost is a reference to Trump being counted as both the 45th and 47th president.[22][23] T1 Mobile MVNO is managed by Florida-based Liberty Mobile Wireless, founded in 2018 by Matthew Lopatin, that uses the T-Mobile network.[24]
