It was one of its main sales arguments. The family business of the US president, the Trump organization, announced on June 16 the launch of a designed and 100% smartphone manufactured in the United States. Your name? The T1 8002 phone. Everything in gold color will be available in September for the sum of $ 499.
One of its main sales arguments? The smartphone is “made in the US.”, That is, made in the United States. Quickly, experts emphasized that for this price, the promise would be particularly difficult to maintain.
And doubts were founded. This promise will not be carried out. In fact, as The Verge reports, Trump’s mobile site seems to have fought from any mention indicating that the phone would be done on American soil.
A promise that is not celebrated
For example, the huge banner on the home page indicates that the T1 is “made in the United States” has disappeared. Instead, the site shows only a few pro -American references.
Therefore, the new T1 slogan is “high gas performance, proudly American.” The site now states that the device is “designed with US values” and that “US hands are hidden behind each device.” Under the “main characteristics” section, the first mention is “the design proud to be American.” In short, nothing clearly indicates that the phone will be designed or manufactured in the United States. There are only “American hands” without other details.
This is not the only change on the phone since your ad last week. Initially announced as a 6.78 -inch AMOLED screen, the T1 site now announces a 6.25 -inch screen. Previously, the site announced 12 GB of RAM, but it was no longer mentioned at all. The date also seems to have changed. The specific site that the model will not be available until “later this year”, without specifying a date.
The Trump organization did not respond to the request for edge comments.
