Trump’s planning in America leads to the fact that smartphones in America lead to skeptics who are wondering if possible
Donald Trump’s family’s work is the name of the president behind something that dared to produce in the years: it is a smartphone in America.
Trump, led by the sons of the Great President, said on Monday that it had licensed the name Donald Trump for a new wireless service and a golden phone. The company said in a statement that T1, as the device, is called, is supposed to be available in August for $ 499, which is “designer and pride in the United States.”
But the national stadium raised immediate doubts, and not only President Trump is trying to spend again while taking office. Many people familiar with the technology industry asked whether the sale of a phone made in America is possible in just a few months, given that most electronics manufacturing is abroad due to expensive local workers, skilled workers ’lack, and suppliers.
“As a person who spent a decade over a decade building a safe and private smartphone, with a focus on manufacturing in the United States, and I can say this with confidence It currently produces a US -making smartphone. “If the Trump phone is preparing at $ 499
With local manufacturing, this advertisement appears to be classic fumigation. ”
The United States Purism, the Liberty phone, costs $ 650 to produce, according to Weaver, and retail trade for $ 2000. Coding covers some additional administrative costs for customers who realize security and who want to check the supply chain of the phone, along with Purism.
On the contrary, the T1 will only be divided Part of this priceRaising questions about how such an American device will be profitable.
Trump has not revealed the company that will make T1, or where it will be produced. It has only given some technical specifications about the device, including that it will be operated on Google’s Android operating system, and comes with a fingerprint sensor and facial recognition to cancel the lock, and has a 6.8 -inch screen.
The product page of the phone is also full of errors and negligence. The device has described as a “5000 mAh camera” camera “(the battery must say, a mistake that was later repaired) and” storing a 12 GB random access “(the RAM is indicated in general as a memory, where any data stored in the RAM when stopping the device) is erased, while neglecting the detection of the entire important information: this type of teams that will be launched In it.
Wayne Lam, an analyst at Techinsights, said the details available about the phone “do not suggest that it be a competitive design of the phone” compared to Apple devices from Apple. He called the specifications for T1 “disappointing”.
Industrial phones in the United States, at least by major companies, are a lost cause. These days, their devices and components are almost completely produced in Asia. CEOs say that American industrialization is very expensive, compared, and that there is not enough suppliers and skilled workers to accomplish the mission.
Even if a company wants to try its luck, creating a US-making phone may take years-not only a few months. The company will need time to classify suppliers, recruit workers and establish a production facility.
Donald Trump’s son, Eric, may have alluded to how T1 will get the problem. In an interview with PodCaster Benny Johnson, at the Benny Show, he indicated that, at first, the phone may be made outside. “In the end, all phones will be built in the United States of America,” said Eric Trump. “We need to re -manufacture.”
Of course, President Trump made the United States to formulate a priority through the “Tahrir Day” tariff in April and the attacks on apple to IPhone manufacturing in Asia. Any imported T1 phones, or components, in theory, in theory, are subject to the well -being of import.
In addition to the phone, Trump will give his name to a wireless service, Trump called MobileThis will cost $ 47.45 per month and come with up to 20 GB of data. The amount is a non -imitated signal to his period as a president.
Trump did not say from its company on the service or wireless device, but it was placed in the terms of the use of the site is a sign of the service that is operated by Liberty Mobile Wireless, which is the same “virtual” company that uses the networks of other companies. Trump said wireless coverage will come from the three largest providers to continue the country.
Ross Robin, an analyst in network research, said that the wireless service in Trump Mobile is more expensive than similar carrier plans, such as T-Mobile’s Metro Verizon total, along with Boost Mobile. In addition, he said that some of these tankers will give new customers a free phone when registering.
Weaver, from Purism, raised one complications when it comes to Trump that claims to be a product in the United States. The Federal Trade Committee has strict rules that clarify when companies can not market the product as local. “Unless the Trump family secretly built a safe, beach or beach, or near the beach over years of work without anyone noticing, it is not possible to simply provide what they preach.”
