Trump Mobile raises T1 Phone price by $250, now $749

The T1 Phone from Trump Mobile has seen its price jump from $499 to $749 after the introductory period ended.

Trump Mobile has increased the cost of its T1 Phone from $499 to $749, a $250 rise that was applied without a public announcement. The phone’s specifications—including 512 GB of storage and 12 GB of RAM—have not been altered, and it continues to run Android 15 with a recent security patch update. Executives earlier this year referred to the launch price as an introductory or promotional figure, language that has now been removed from the site.

At the new price, the device is outmatched by competitors like the iPhone 17E, Galaxy S26 FE, or even older flagships such as the iPhone 16 or Pixel 10. The change also follows limited software support and reports that some customers never received their phones.

Why it matters

The price jump makes the Trump phone far less attractive compared to mainstream smartphones.
