    Let’s break down who’s actually going to buy this piece of shit.

    Anyone with any experience with buying a modern Android phone?.. Nope. Metro, Tello, US Cellular, etc are all cheaper than Trump Mobile by almost half the price and the phone itself is a REVVL variant selling for $500, and Apple fans aren’t watching anyway.

    So that just leaves extremely uninformed people who don’t know any better. You’ll be able to identify how little they know by the fact that they’ll pay double the going-rate of an MVNO for an overpriced, gold slab of feces.

    A lot of Apple fans are tied into their ecosystem, either by profession or just history with the brand. Any Android phone means upending their lives if they depend on their phones for business or pleasure, and a lot of them are Apple fans because Tim Cook keeps Trump 39.5ft away, so they’re off the books.

    TL/DR: Get ready to see a bunch of boomers walk out of church with gold phones.

      I don’t think the phone actually exists, it’s just a digital mockup.
