You might give Trump Mobile's T1 Phone a pass on its gaudy paint job, one that equates a garish shade of yellow to burnished gold. But, will you be as generous if you found out that the T1 is essentially a re-packaged mid-tier Android phone that launched back in 2024, and that Trump Mobile gimped its battery to price it at $499?
