Definition: Trump Mobile

A Trump-branded 5G cellular service from T1 Mobile LLC that uses all three U.S. carriers (see MVNO). Introduced in June 2025, the $499 Android-based T1 phone was scheduled for release later in the year; however, as of January 2026, the T1 is still on order. However, pre-owned iPhones and Androids are available.

The service costs a flat monthly fee of $47.45 (47th and 45th presidential administrations). Trump Mobile includes unlimited talk, text and data, device protection, 24/7 roadside assistance and free calling to more than 100 countries. No subscriber contracts or credit checks are required, and for a flat fee, telehealth services are available. The company has said the device is being made in America and that call centers are also in the country.
