According to the Financial Times, Trump Mobile—a mobile phone company launched by the Trump Organization—has postponed its plans to ship a gold-colored smartphone originally scheduled for the end of this year. The company initially promised to release a U.S.-made smartphone priced at $499 this year to compete with mainstream devices from Apple and Samsung, but has since scaled back its goals. Trump Mobile’s customer service team stated that the previous U.S. government shutdown caused delays in phone deliveries. The team added that it is “highly unlikely” the device will ship this month. The “T1” device, announced in June, along with a $47.45-per-month service plan, is one of several initiatives launched by the Trump family business to capitalize on his return to the White House.
