Go and check the link, but essentially:

  • small
  • 2023 release (Android 13)
  • HEADPHONE JACK (I was almost sold here)
  • NFC
  • 8GB RAM (that is powerful)
  • 256 GB internal storage
  • Dual SIM or SIM+MicroSD
  • IR BLASTER (whatttttttt)
  • LED indicators (front AND BACK)
  • fingerprint scanner
  • face ID
  • FM Radio
  • PROGRAMMABLE BUTTON (ok I’m in love already STOPPP)

I mean… this list is mindblowing. So…

What’s the downside?

Honestly, you can go and check all reviews… but this phone is virtually perfect for the size, the only issue I have is that the screen is a bit too tiny, 3 inches, and 480p, and I think this will make many people run away.

It should make me look elsewhere also… but where? Any other small phone with a bigger screen is pretty bad, old, etc… and I really needed a new phone, so I realised this was an opportunity to commit to the cause, and buy and hopefully push this form factor from Unihertz to mainstream brands.

Hopefully one day we can get one with a slightly bigger screen, I believe 4 inches and 1080p would be brutal. But for now… I think I’ve found my new phone. In fact, I bought it 3 hours after knowing its existance.

If you are not sold yet…

Go check reviews on YouTube (example). Honestly, you’ll see every reviewer falls in love with the device, even non-small phone lovers. It looks like it performs pretty well, it’s decently fast, battery is solid, screen is bright and colorful, the LEDs are really useful, even Face ID (which I’ll probably disable) is quick, it does not heat up at all, and even photos are pretty decent…

And it’s something like 200 $. Come on. What a deal.

Will report back.

So, what do you think?

    Crazy that this comes up less than a week after taking a road trip with a buddy that has one. They LOVE it and it’s certainly a cool little device, albeit a bit of a thicc boi. I called it his little suppository. I would certainly consider getting one, but it definitely wouldn’t replace my bigger phone entirely. For basic phone tasks it worked fine, when we tried using it for navigation the screen was just so crowded it was impossible to read and we ended up using my phone instead. Then when around the hotel he still ended up using a bigger phone because I’m sure the eye strain it causes doesn’t help for browsing the web. It’s a great idea, I just can’t recommend it for full time use because some things just don’t display right on a screen that small. If you are wanting something strictly for phone calls and occasional texts then it’s a winner.
