The Trump Organization is now a wireless business, which includes a mobile phone plan and a $ 499 gold -powered phone called T1.
On Monday, Donald Trump Jr. announced a new wireless venture focused on a service called Trump Mobile. According to the Venture website, a wireless plan with unlimited conversation, text and data and long -term contract is available in a month .447.45. Interested people can use their phones and numbers.
Trump is also offering a pre -order A 499 phone with a mobile 6.8 -inch AMOLED screen that operates Android 15 operating systems. The company says the T1 phone will be available in September. According to the Trump Organization, the service will run using three major US wireless carriers, AT&T, T -Mobile and Verizon networks.
The service price is a callout for two terms as Donald Trump’s president: 47 for his current presidency and 45 and 2017 to 2021 for his previous one.
The wireless service that is promoted by a celebrity or brand may be an emerging trend. Just a week before the Trump Organization’s announcement, the famous smartless podcast began its similar service. Podcast is hosted by actor Jason Batman, Will Ernit and Sean Hess.
The launch persuaded the fast company to ask, “Is telecom new wine?” Tekla has become a famous businessman. Labron James, George Clooney, Eva Langoria, Kendall Jenner, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Breaking Bed’s stars, Aaron Paul and Brian Cranston, are among the most famous people in the spirits game.
‘Made in the United States’
In a press release for the service and the new phone, the Trump Organization says it will offer customer support through US -based call centers. The T -One phone is described as “designed and made in the United States”.
The press release did not provide any additional details about the sourcing for the preparation of the phone, but in view of the facts of the supply chain, it is likely that at least some components on the phone will come from another country, such as China. The Trump administration has focused on getting more manufacturing in the United States, including pressure to make Apple make iPhones here.
In addition to the sound and data service, the Trump Mobile Plan also includes 24/7 of the roadside aid through the US, Televiation and Mental Health Support Services, no credit check and free international calling to 100 countries, which includes many people with US military bases who provide support to their families. “
President did not appear to announce Monday at the Trump Tower in New York. His son Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. was unveiled.
The Trump Organization is a holding company for the president’s business interests. According to Reuters, the president has reported 600 million worth of revenue from various deals and projects, including crypto coins, his administration’s business sector has increased.
Trump Mobile vs Competition
New offers by Trump Mobile can get a lot of publicity on the basis of the president’s high -profile and social media presence, but a wireless executive said it was unlikely to create a major obstacle to other wireless carriers.
“The US wireless market is more than $ 300 billion a year and is not a zero game,” says Ahmed Khattak, US mobile CEO. Newcomers, like Trump mobile or smart lace, usually use large 3 infrastructure as mobile virtual network operators. ” Khattak’s company has served one million wireless users and ranked CNET in wireless phone projects.
He says, “They can produce branding or loyalty of the audience, but the benefits of a larger MVNO or big three carriers cannot be changed primarily.”
Khattak is not convinced that Trump’s new effort is a conflict of interests or that the president offers a regular dispute over the appointment of FCC commissioners.
“The FCC is an independent agency,” he says. “The commissioners are appointed by the president, but it is confirmed by the Senate and the FCCMVNO is not included in business contracts or trade launches.”
US mobile CEOs also do not believe that the new company represents a new wave of wireless verification of celebrity.
“If anything, he is behind us,” he says. “Mint Mobile is often seen as the story of Ryan Reynolds, but the fact is that its main company, Ultra Mobile, was the fastest growing private company in the United States long before its involvement.”
Khattak added, “Most celebrities MVNOs are not the last because wireless is a practically severe business with a hard margin. This is not the next celebrity trend of alcohol or podcast.”
