The Trump Group withdrew the report that the recently revealed smartphone will be manufactured in the US, in doubt that such a device can be manufactured in America.

A spokesman for Trump Organization, owned by US President Donald Trump, but argued that the device would be manufactured in the US.

This month, Trump Organization introduced the T1, a gold -color device available at the retail price of $ 499. At the time of the announcement, a snapshot on the home site of the company said “T1 Phone” Made in the USA is available for pre -order now. “

The specifications have changed

Reference to the phone’s place of production has been completely removed. The change was first highlighted by The Verge.

The T1 ′s website now says that the phone has “American -Proud Design” and “comes to life here in the US” – though it is not clear if it means it will really be built in America.

When the T1 was first announced, experts told CNBC that the device would probably be manufactured in China. The US does not have an advanced supply chain for manufacturing smartphones. Even if they did, many accessories should come from abroad.

However, in a statement to USA Today, Trump Mobile’s spokesman Chris Walker said that “T1 phones are proudly manufactured in America.”

“The speculations to the contrary are just inaccurate,” Walker said.

The construction site is not the only thing that has changed on the T1 website. Some of the device features and specifications have also been updated.

In the original announcement, Trump Mobile’s website said the T1 would have a 6.8 -inch AMOLED display. This has now been converted into a 6.25 -inch AMOLED display. The report that the device has 12 gigabytes memory has also been withdrawn.

It is an unusual move for a smartphone company to change the specifications of a device after its announcement.
