Background

Trump Mobile, a cell phone provider and smartphone maker, was launched with the promise of delivering a 'Made in the USA' phone, but has been mired in issues since its launch, including a data leak that has exposed customer information.

The company's marketing materials now say the phone was 'designed with American values in mind' and 'shaped by American innovation', but the device itself has drawn criticism for multiple issues, including an American flag graphic with only 11 stripes instead of 13 and a strong resemblance to a two-year-old HTC phone.
