For everyone asking how close the Trump Phone is to the HTC U24 Pro, here’s the inside view.

The answer is: very.

The internals line up almost part for part, down to the board layout, cameras, shields, cables, and battery placement. This is what a rebrand looks like when the back cover comes off.

@iFixit While the hardware may be the same, the software/firmware/OS that Trump Org loads onto its HTC phone would make a big difference, wouldn't it? Or are there truly reselling the HTC phone with exactly the same software?

The other day on U_tubby I saw a vid where they took the HTC motherboard, put it into the tRump phone with the components from the tRump phone and..

it booted..

With an HTC welcome screen 😉
