Big Power.” The poster also reads, “With American hands behind every device, Trump Mobile brings care, precision, and trusted quality in every detail.” But what has been strange is the mismatched photo of the T1 Mobile from its earlier teaser. news Also Read: Why Donald Trump Asks For Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan’s Resignation?

T1 Mobile Specifications, Features, And Price

T1 Mobile is priced at $499 (around Rs 43,000). If you are interested in what else it offers over the confusing design, then know:

Display: The phone comes with a 6.78-inch AMOLED display running at 120Hz, so you’re looking at smooth scrolling and vibrant visuals. At the back, it carries a triple camera module in a design that looks a lot like Apple’s Pro models.

Cameras: You get a 50MP main sensor, paired with a 2MP depth and 2MP macro camera. Up front, there’s a 16MP selfie shooter, which should be fine for everyday use.

Performance and Battery: While the chipset hasn’t been confirmed yet, the T1 Phone will ship with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage, expandable via a card slot. Powering it is a 5000mAh battery with 20W charging support. And yes, it still includes a 3.5mm headphone jack – something you don’t see often in mid-range or premium phones anymore.
