# We tested the Trump Mobile phone. It was 9 months late and no longer ‘Made in the USA’

Nine months after their delivery was originally promised, Trump Mobile this week sent T1 phones to members of the media and said it was mailing out units to customers who placed pre-orders. NBC News received one of the first review units and tested the device, which is no longer being marketed as “Made in the USA” — a claim used when the phone was first announced.
