I bought the Trump phone 3 months ago, and I’ve got nothing

On June 16, 2025, I pre-ordered an Android smartphone. I’ve done this dozens of times before in my life, but this time was a little different. On that day, I was pre-ordering a phone that I didn’t want and had every reason to believe I would never actually see. The device in question was the T1 Phone, the first phone from a brand new company called Trump Mobile. Trump Mobile is both a new carrier and phone company started by President Donald Trump’s sons, Donald Trump, Jr. and Eric Trump. The T

This Electric Shaver Is Made From Aircraft-Grade Aluminium, Because Why Not?

Nothing says “premium” like aerospace-grade aluminum alloy, am I right? I guess. I don’t know, it sounds fancy and it looks fancy, too, which makes Laifen’s new electric shaver, the T1 Pro, the swankiest electric shaver I’ve seen all day. The T1 Pro, which was announced at IFA 2025, is apparently crafted with “a single block of aerospace-grade aluminum alloy,” which makes this over-engineered shaver both light and very durable, according to Laifen. Powering this thing is what Laifen describes a

Inverting the Xorshift128 random number generator

CVE-2025-7783 is a very recent vulnerability affecting a lot of applications in the Node.js ecosystem including those which use axios or the deprecated request library. In all honesty, this vulnerability is really an edge case that is extremely unlikely to be exploited: it is dependent upon a number of events that are not normally present. One of those events is the attacker having access to five consecutive outputs of JavaScript Math.random( ) , which allows the attacker to predict future outpu

The Trump Phone Looks Like This. No, Wait, It Looks Like This

Trump Mobile has teased its T1 Phone once again, saying, "The wait is almost over!" The question is, what exactly are we waiting for? This week, the company showed off on social media two distinctly different and seemingly Photoshopped looks for the T1, also known as the "Trump Phone." A Trump Mobile Instagram post shows what appears to be an iPhone 16 Pro Max with a gold finish and a US flag. A post on X (and another on Instagram) shows what looks a lot like a Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. Both de

At This Point, It’s Impossible to Know What the Trump Phone Looks Like

It's been over two months since Trump Mobile announced the T1 Phone was being “Made in the USA” designed “with American values in mind,” and it seems that anyone deciding to preorder it still can’t be sure exactly what phone they might receive. In posts on X and Instagram on Wednesday, the Trump Mobile account encouraged followers to place their preorder, promising them that “the wait is almost over.” This was joined by an image that looks nothing like the one of the T1 phone that's currently o

Trump Mobile’s latest ads ditch Android reality for a golden iPhone fantasy

Trump Mobile on X TL;DR Trump Mobile’s marketing materials now show a gold iPhone embossed with the carrier’s branding and the American flag. The device looks nothing like the T1 Phone, which the company is currently taking orders for on its website. Trump Mobile seems to have pulled a classic switcheroo, promoting a shiny iPhone in its ads instead of the Android phone it’s actually selling. Move over, reality, there’s a new “gold” standard in smartphone marketing, and all credit goes to Tru

I recommend this Lenovo ThinkPad to remote workers - and it's on sale for a limited time

ZDNET's key takeaways Lenovo's fifth-generation ThinkPad T14s is available now for $2,649. It's a particularly hardy laptop and boasts solid battery life. However, the Intel chipset delivers puts a cap on high-end performance. View now at Best Buy View now at Lenovo more buying choices Lenovo is holding a new clearance sale for the ThinkPad T14s Gen 5.

Timekettle T1 Handheld Translator Review: Global Offline Translation

High-grade, real-time language translation is everywhere. Your cell phone can do it. Your Meta glasses can do it. Your earbuds will soon be able to do it. What was once a niche task that required tedious typing into a web browser or a pricey, stand-alone gadget is now ubiquitous. To my mild surprise, stand-alone translator gadgets have remained a thing, in part because they are often easier to use than an app, thanks to their single-minded design. For the Timekettle T1, an additional selling po

Writing a Game Boy Emulator in OCaml

Introduction For the past few months, I have been working on a project called CAMLBOY, a Game Boy emulator written in OCaml that runs in the browser. You can try it out on the following demo page: Demo Page I included several homebrew ROMs in the demo, so please try them out (I recommend Bouncing ball and Rocket Man Demo). You can also play with it in your mobile browser as it runs at 60 FPS on recent smartphones. Repository You can find the repository here: https://github.com/linoscope/CA

The Trump Phone Is Already a Lot Different From Last Week

Apparently, things change quickly in the world of the Trump phone. It’s been 10 days since the Trump Organization announced it would be launching the $499 T1 smartphone, and in that time there have already been a confusing series of changes to a product that was initially supposed to be arriving as soon as August. Now, you can only expect it “later this year,” according to the most recent update of the Trump Mobile website, with all mention of it “coming soon” gone. That is not the only change.

Trump Organization scraps 'made in the USA' tag for its gold T1 smartphone

US President Donald Trump uses a cellphone aboard Marine One before it departs Leesburg Executive Airport in Leesburg, Virginia, on April 24, 2025. Trump is returning to the White House after attending a MAGA, Inc. dinner at the Trump National Golf Club Washington, DC. The Trump Organization scrapped a reference that its recently revealed smartphone will be made in the U.S., amid doubts that such a device can be manufactured on American shores at its price tag. A spokesperson for the Trump Org

The Trump Phone no longer promises it’s made in America

When the Trump Organization launched the Trump Mobile wireless carrier, it also launched a flagship phone called the T1 Phone 8002 (gold version). One of the phone’s main selling points was that it was to be made in America. We figured that was unlikely to be true. And we were right: sometime in the last several days, the Trump Mobile site appears to have been scrubbed of all language indicating the phone is to be made in the USA. (Like, for instance, the huge banner on the homepage that says th

Report highlights uncomfortable truths about Trump Mobile and its T1 Phone

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR A new report from The Financial Times has revealed some concerning truths about Trump Mobile and its “Made in America” T1 Phone. The company behind Trump Mobile’s network operations is registered to a luxury apartment and has a shaky public presence. A Trump Mobile spokesperson told the publication that the T1 Phone is manufactured in Alabama, California, and Florida, but experts doubt these claims.

The golden Trump Phone is almost certainly not made in the US

Not content with a real estate empire and the presidency of the United States, the Trump family is wading into the phone wars like it's 2011 with a shiny gold monstrosity called the T1, the marketing of which leans extensively on the narrowest idea of patriotism. Beyond the immediate question — why do this, like, at all? — the T1 invites a question that's perhaps easier to interrogate: How can any modern smartphone claim to be made in the US? Over the last 40 years America has led a massive glo

9 Urgent Questions About Trump Mobile and the Gold T1 Smartphone

On Monday morning, the Trump Organization announced that it would soon offer a new wireless service, Trump Mobile, and a golden, $499 smartphone to go with it. None of it makes much sense. To be clear, the Trumps would be far from the only celebrities to moonlight as mobile virtual network operator, or MVNO, a pretty common practice where small carriers piggyback off of bigger networks under a different name. Even the SmartLess podcast guys have one. But the more you read about Trump’s cell pla

Trump enters smartphone market with exactly the gaudy golden phone you’d imagine

TL;DR The Trump Organization is launching a phone service called T1 Mobile. The highlight of this service is its flagship “47 plan.” The group has also unveiled a new phone called the T1 Phone. Lately, there have been murmurs about the Trump Organization wanting to enter the mobile phone market. Recently spotted trademarks suggested the organization was looking to launch both a phone and a mobile service. Those murmurs have now turned into a full-blown announcement as the group unveiled its n

Trump’s New Cash Grab Is a Gold iPhone Lookalike That’s Worse Than Any Budget Android

If there’s one thing we’ve learned over the years, it’s that President Donald J. Trump loves two things: gold furniture and using his status as U.S. president to make money. And now, to everyone’s detriment, Trump is apparently combining those two passions into a mobile device that you can buy with real American tender. It gives me no pleasure to introduce to you all: the Trump phone. 🚨BREAKING: The Trump family is LAUCHING a "Trump Phone" the phones will be made in the USA 🇺🇸 Mobile plans will

The Trump Mobile T1 Phone looks both bad and impossible

Here is a roughly complete list of all the things we know for sure about the first phone made for the new Trump Mobile wireless provider: it’s called the T1 Phone 8002 (gold version). It costs $499, and you can reserve one now with a $100 down payment. It is, according to the website, coming in September. That’s about all I feel confident saying. Beyond that, all we have is a website that was clearly put together quickly and somewhat sloppily, a promise that the phone is “designed and built in

Trump Mobile launches $47 service and a gold phone

is a news editor with over a decade’s experience in journalism. He previously worked at Android Police and Tech Advisor. The Trump family is launching a mobile network, Trump Mobile, and a Trump-branded phone, the T1, which they claim will be made in America. Trump Mobile is launching with a single plan called “The 47 Plan” for $47.45 per month, which it says offers the same coverage as the big three carriers. It will work with existing phones, but if you prefer, the company will also sell a $
