The new Trump Phone design is here

Trump Mobile has revamped its website, introducing a new logo, new design language and a new version of the T1 phone. The redesigned phone is the same one that two company executives showed me on a video call two months ago, apparently now confirmed to be the final design – but it’s still unclear when it will arrive.

The phone is still gold, of course, with an American flag on the back, as well as a “Trump Mobile” wordmark. I was shown a similar design but with a huge “T1” logo across the entire back, but was told that would be removed, and it’s nowhere to be seen on the current design. There’s a triple rear camera with somewhat oddly spaced lenses (and another “Trump Mobile” logo), and a curved edge on the body of the phone with a headphone jack at the top. It still looks a lot like the HTC U24 Pro.

The specifications list has also been updated. The phone has apparently reverted to a 6.78-inch OLED screen (the size stated at launch, then quickly increased to 6.25-inches for no obvious reason). The triple rear cameras include 50-megapixel main lenses and 2x telephoto lenses as well as an 8-megapixel ultra-wide, with a 50-megapixel selfie camera, as I was promised back in February. The 5,000mAh battery includes 30W charging, and the phone will run Android 15 on an unspecified Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 chipset.

As far as I can tell, the website has removed all mention of the previous price of $499, but it still accepts deposits of $100, with the promise that you can “lock in” the “promo price.” When I spoke to executives Eric Thomas and Don Hendrickson in February, they said $499 was an “introductory” price, which would increase after the relaunch — although they promised that early buyers would still be charged a total of $499 and that the new price would be “under $1,000.”

There’s still no mention of the final price, or release date of the phone – the previous mention of “later this year” has been removed from the site. The qualifiers regarding American manufacturing have also changed: the phone is now “shaped by American innovation,” with “American teams helping to guide design and quality.” The site doesn’t get any more specific than that, although executives have already told me the phone will ultimately be assembled in Miami. The original description “made in the USA” is long gone, as is its strange and euphemistic replacement, the claim that there are “American hands behind every device.”

Along with the updated phone details, Trump Mobile has also changed its cellular plans. There’s now a 15% discount for military and veterans on the plan at $47.45, as well as a new family plan that decreases in price the more lines you add. The site now even announces that “‘Trump’ will be proudly displayed in the status bar as your network,” which sounds more like a threat than a promise, but I can confirm it’s true: Edge Writer Allison Johnson saw exactly that when she tested the Trump Mobile plan last year.

The entire website has been redesigned, with a cleaner design language and a more modern logo. There’s also much more prominent placement for Don Jr. and Eric Trump, the president’s sons, with Eric being featured on the homepage, Don Jr. on the Plans page, and the two greeting you together in a new promotional video on the About page. The two brothers officially run the Trump Organization and have heavily promoted Trump Mobile from the start.

Still, the website is clearly a work in progress. Several subpages are resolved with what appear to be URLs for a pre-production staging area, and if you try to make a deposit for the T1 phone, you’re greeted with the original, ugly render that the company shared last June. The new logo has already been added to the company’s Facebook and Instagram pages, but not to its X or Truth Social profiles, suggesting this rebranding is still rolling out.

I recently reported that there were signs of life from Truth Mobile, between the FCC granting of the phone and the filing of a new 47 Plan trademark last week. This website redesign is the latest proof that, after all, the Trump phone might finally become a real phone. A day. Maybe.
