      And say what you will about the T1, but let’s give credit where it’s due. Trump Mobile aren’t gouging their fanbase…not yet anyway. Against all expectations, the T1 is actually well priced when compared to the equivalently specced 512GB U24 Pro, and the only things you give up are the 60W fast charging and your dignity.

      That’s from the iFixit article. I checked the website and they’re currently listing it for $499, whereas Amazon has the U24 Pro 512gb (which I think is what they’re saying is the equivalent?) for $699. So maybe it’s actually cheaper? But I wouldn’t buy either one at this point anyway. The U24 Pro released in July 2024 with the promise of two years of security updates, meaning it’ll be out of support in a month. I can’t imagine this “new” version will get any support at all.

          Well at least its not Israel making these, they would have put bombs in them. Though are we sure Israel didn’t paint them gold?

          Don’t forget the chance that he could upload his CP to your phone to blackmail you or frame you for his own crimes at any moment.

            That’s an insane method.

            “How come all of these new pedos have the same 15 petabytes of CSAM? And why is it always in a folder labelled ‘Donald’s Dirties’? These sick fucks.”

        How long ago did people order these ago, and what was the cost then? The price surge on RAM and storage due to AI has already caused the prices of many mobile devices to go up, especially the ones with larger capacities.
