"Where's the Trump Phone? We're going to keep talking about it every week. We've reached out, as usual, to ask about the Trump Phone's whereabouts. As usual, we're still waiting for a response. In the meantime, it's missed yet another of its promised release dates. When we started writing about Trump Mobile regularly, it all began with a simple post pointing out that the company's T1 Phone had missed its original release date."
"When it was announced in June, the Trump phone was promised to launch in both August and September (one of the many impossible details in the launch announcement). At some point that was updated on the Trump Mobile site to instead say "later this year." As 2026 dawns, we're into uncharted territory. Trump Mobile has repeatedly shifted the goalposts on the T1 Phone 8002 (gold version)'s release, but it has always had goalposts."
The T1 Phone 8002 (gold version) has missed multiple promised launch dates, including August and September, and the company website now lists the launch as "later this year." Trump Mobile has repeatedly shifted timelines and provided few concrete updates while remaining difficult to contact about the phone's whereabouts. Customer service reportedly said that the recent US government shutdown delayed deliveries, a situation that could have prevented FCC clearance. Some other delayed devices have still reached the market. Trump Mobile did not reply to requests for comment about when the T1 Phone will finally be released.
