The note stated that the device “appears to be a reskinned T-Mobile REVVL 7 Pro 5G” manufactured in China by Wingtech, a company now owned by Luxshare. According to the note, the phone is “not American-made,” is based on a 2024 model, and can currently be purchased online for far less than the Trump-branded version citing a $126 price on Amazon.
THE SCAM:
Pay $499 for a phone you can buy for 126.00 dollars from T-Mobile.
LET'S TALK ABOUT HOW MUCH HE REALLY SUPPORTS AMERICAN MANUFACTURING:
“Made in the USA” claims have since been walked back, with broader language now claiming the T1 is “designed with American values” and supported by “American teams.”
Today, Trump Mobile CEO Pat O'Brien said the phone would finally start shipping this week. However, the Trump Mobile terms and conditions make it perfectly clear that the upstart mobile brand doesn't actually have an obligation to ship anything.
