TL;DR
- iFixit teardown confirms Trump T1 Phone is an almost exact duplicate of HTC U24 Pro.
- Minor differences include slight flash and speaker grille adjustments, and variations in chipset package suppliers.
- The Trump phone has a slightly larger battery made in the Philippines, supporting slower 30W charging.
- Shared distinctive chassis design, near-identical specs, and matching card slots previously indicated the phones' similarity.
- HTC previously stated they do not design or manufacture phones for third parties, suggesting a contracted manufacturer for both devices.
