Trump Mobile's golden phone remains nowhere to be found

A golden phone that President Donald Trump’s family business promised to release last year remains mysteriously under wraps as the technology industry serves up a gluttony of new gadgets in Las Vegas this week. When the Trump Organization launched a mobile phone service last June, it was supposed to be a stage setter for a new smartphone be bathed in gold with a $500 price tag — a bargain compared to Apple's latest iPhone models. The newly formed Trump Mobile targeted its T1 phone for a August or September release. The anticipated shipping date then changed to by the end of 2025, but that target was missed, too.
