Which Phones Do Elon Musk and Sundar Pichai Use? Glimpses Spotted at Trump’s Oath Ceremony

On January 20, Donald Trump was sworn in as the 47th President of the United States, with J.D. Vance serving as Vice President. Many billionaires and leaders in the tech industry, including Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, and Google CEO Sundar Pichai, attended the elaborate inauguration.

Viral Photos Cause Speculation

Amongst the pomp and the ceremony, one photo of the social media got viral: a candid shot of Sundar Pichai and Elon Musk snapped completely engrossed in their smartphones. Audiences took to online forums speculating over the make and model of the devices.

Which Phones Were They Using?

Sundar Pichai (Google CEO): Reportedly, Pichai was spotted wielding Google's new flagship: Pixel 9 or Pixel 9 XL. That really highlights how devoted the guy is to Google products.
Elon Musk (Tesla & Starlink CEO): The Tech King of tomorrow looked to be sporting an iPhone 16 Pro-which was one of the company's best handsets at that point-and again highlighted the choice that an industry king himself could have opted for.


Tech Leaders attending the Show

In addition to Pichai and Musk, other notable attendees included Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, and Apple CEO Tim Cook—photographed alongside members of the Trump family. Their presence further elevated the significance of the inaugural festivities, blending politics with cutting-edge tech leadership.

Internet Reacts with Humor

The image of Pichai and Musk fixated on their phones brought a flood of memes and witty comments across social media. A user jokingly asked, "Are they still working, or just scrolling through TikTok?" While it's not unusual for tech executives to be connected around the clock, this lighthearted moment quickly made waves in both political and tech circles, shining a spotlight on these industry giants—and the smartphones they rely on every day.
