President Donald Trump’s signature smartphone has made its grand(-ish) re-entrance, this time with new specs and a bigger price tag.
In a new interview with The Verge, Trump Mobile executives Don Hendrickson and Eric Thomas revealed new information about the device for the first time since last year. In the interview, Hendrickson and Thomas revealed that the phone’s display will be about 6.8 inches in size with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 7 series chipset, 512GB of built-in storage (with expandable storage via SD cards), and a 5,000mAh battery. They also claimed the selfie camera and main rear shooter are both 50MP lenses, and The Verge speculated that it might also have an ultra-wide and telephoto lens on the back.

How would the Trump T1 phone compare to the iPhone 16?
There’s some good and bad news for anyone eager to get a T1 in their hands in the near future. The good news is that Hendrickson and Thomas claim it could start shipping to early buyers by springtime. The bad news is that the $499 listed price for the device is apparently only for early adopters, and later buyers will have to pay an undetermined higher price. Plus, despite early marketing claiming otherwise, the two executives confirmed in this interview that the phone will not be manufactured in the United States after all.
Mashable Light Speed
It should be noted that all of these details should be taken with some degree of skepticism, given historical precedent. The T1 was supposed to launch six months ago but has been largely radio silent since then, presumably because the phone shown to The Verge doesn’t look anything like the one advertised on its website last year. Its design, specs, and price have all changed since its original launch date.
At any rate, we should get a better idea of whether or not any of the above is actually true in the next month or two.

![NASA Artemis II splashes down in Pacific Ocean in ‘perfect’ landing for Moon mission | TechCrunch
After 10 days, the four astronauts aboard the Orion spacecraft have returned to Earth, their mission around the Moon a success.
Integrity, the name of the crew’s spacecraft as part of NASA’s Artemis II mission, splashed down in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of San Diego, California, at 5:07 p.m. Pacific Time, according to NASA. The four crew members aboard — three Americans and one Canadian — were all in “green” (or safe and healthy) condition after the Orion craft’s “perfect” landing.

The crew was composed of Commander Reid Wiseman, pilot Victor Glover, and mission specialists Christina Koch and Jeremy Hansen. From liftoff to splashdown, the quartet was in space for just over nine days (with NASA rounding up and calling it a 10-day mission).
Artemis II was NASA’s first mission to the Moon’s orbit in more than 50 years. The crew traveled farther from Earth than humans ever have before — reaching an estimated 252,760 miles from our planet. During their journey, the crew orbited the Moon, taking photos from their flyby of never-before-seen parts of the surface, and even witnessing a total solar eclipse. They identified new craters, naming one after Wiseman’s wife Carroll, who died of cancer in 2020.
“These were the ambassadors to the stars that we sent out there,” Jared Isaacman, NASA’s administrator, said after the landing. “I can’t imagine a better crew. It was a perfect mission.”
