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). The existence of a “gold version” of the phone implies a not-gold version, but the Trump Mobile website doesn’t say anything more about that. Is it actually going to come with a Trump Mobile background, and will people be able to change it? Either Trump Mobile has done something truly remarkable here (and I’d bet you a T1 Phone 8002 that it hasn’t), or the phone it ends up shipping will not be the one buyers are expecting. And the Trump Mobile T1 Phone 8002 is as vapor-y as it gets.
