Trump Mobile blames what President Donald Trump called ‘short-term disaster’ for delay of its first-ever smartphone

Trump Mobile's gold-colored T1 smartphone launch has been postponed, with the company citing the recent government shutdown as the cause. Originally slated for a late 2025 release, the device is now expected by mid-January. This delay follows previous missed deadlines for the phone, which was marketed as a domestic alternative to foreign brands.
