Trump Mobile T1 Review: Gold-Glazed Midrange With Tradeoffs

CNET’s live review of the Trump Mobile T1 finds a stock Android 15 phone with minimal bloat and two preinstalled apps (Truth Social and Doctegrity). It ships with a 6.78-inch AMOLED display, a 5,000 mAh battery and 30W charging, and an 8-core chip that benchmarks place in the midrange tier, performing behind newer rivals like Pixel 10A, iPhone 17E and Galaxy S25 FE. Real-world use is adequate for everyday tasks, but camera colors appear oversaturated and not always true-to-life, and software update longevity remains unclear. The box includes a case and charger; quirks noted include a gold shade some may dislike and a back flag with 11 stripes instead of 13.

Samsung One UI 7: New Features, Security Boosts, and Missing Widgets

Samsung's latest One UI 7 beta has removed the lock screen widget carousel feature, which allowed users to access full-sized widgets by tapping the clock.

This change aligns Samsung's approach more closely with Google's Android, which ceased supporting native lock screen widgets with Android 5.0. Meanwhile, Google is reintroducing full-sized lock screen widgets in Android 15 for tablets.
