Unihertz Tank Mini 1 is a rugged, water-resistant phone perfect for demanding job sites. Its durability, rangefinder, and practical design cater to professionals. However, it lacks 5G, has a bad camera app, and typing errors occur due to its 4-inch screen. A 4.5-inch display would improve usability.
Pros:
- Durable build
- Water-resistant
- Useful rangefinder
Cons:
- Bad camera app
- No 5G support
- Small screen and keyboard issues
While durable and functional, Tank Mini 1 lacks modern features and has a bad camera app. Consider it if ruggedness is your top priority.
The Titan has been my daily driver since 2020, from the moment I held it in my hand I realized that I had founded my perfect companion of every day work. Strong, reliable, amazing battery life, superb keyboard and gorgeous style makes the Titan an unreplaceable device! Thank you Unihertz!
Love the size some people with the screen was tad larger I do not the screen size is perfect. Fits in my pocket. I was really surprised how loud the phone can be. Make no mistake its not gonna annoy the neighbors but really shocked on how loud and good the audio quality is for its size. Extreamly easy to root because there nice enough to have the firmwares downloadable directly from them. I can share my storage via samba / Windows standard file sharing because of it. And I can Vnc remote control my phone putting it on a computer with a full keyboard and mouse is dang steller. The camera quality is very decent I lowered it to 8mp takes perfect pictures to list stuff on ebay and facebook. Love the extra orange button that you can program to do what you want. Also surprised it had a real thumb reader too works very well. Bluetooth module is probably the most powerful ive ever seen in a phone. I work in a computer lab and the EM / RF radiation is very excessive yet the blue tooth works pretty dang well back here and outside of the lab I can skate on my roller skates with zero stuttering, Thats a first. I was also worried about its size and reception of course it does not get cell reception in my lab nothing does but Maybe a bag phone but the wifi works amazing with T-Mobile wifi calling. And outside my lab ive had no issues using T-Mobile and Verizon services. Love the dual sim option. Interal storage is quite fast I can read and write to it via samba at almost 20mb + a sec my old Moto Z 2 play could only do about 8mb a sec. Relitivly powerful processor for its size perfect amount of ram for this cpu. Over all I think Unihertz did a dam amazing job with the phone. I hope they stick around and keep maken phones. I wish though some one would make a copy of the Old Droid 2 with the slider keyboard. Small screen would be a lot easier to use if it had a built in qwerty keyboard like the old Droid 2's had. The onscreen keyboard would be pretty tuff to use if your a person with large hands. My hands are pretty small I can get along with the onscreen keyboard if I have to. I like they give you a Jelly case to put it in the lasso they include is also pretty good quality although I didnt like it dangling off the phone I could totally see some one wearing this phone as a necklace its that small and light weight. I also really liked they had a screen film protector on the phone shipped and put on and give you a spare screen protector as well. Im going to replace it with a Zagg screen protector soon as I get a hold of them and havem cut me one as they dont offer one on there site. Far as its design its fatter then most phones but personally I like this the concave bezeling of the edges and the thickness of the phone makes it really easy for me to picup off flat surfaces. Been using it for two weeks and yet to drop it or have issues snacken it up off my desk. I also love that it has a full Headphone jack on it I do still use analog and this was great the jack feels very snug and sturdy. The Led Light is bright enough but not insainely bright like most phones. I also Love that they put the charging jack on the side and not the bottom. Makes it very easy to charge and prop up as pictured. Keep it up Unihertz And suggestion for a small phone for the future I would stright up pay 300+ bucks for a Jelly with all these features and design with a slider keyboard on it.
Design and concept are so cool! I wish the display size were a tad bigger, say 3.5 inches, and the battery at least 2500, with an IP rating as well. Also, the software support is very limited, and I wish Unihertz would provide security updates at least twice a year for the first couple of years!
It's perfect. It's solved my doom scrolling and I'm not tempted to peek at my phone for social media updates. The only issue I have is when the screen brightness auto feature glitches. A full device reset fixes it but it happens often. Tapping on stuff at the edges of the screen tend to miss the tap. As a phone though, best purchase I made.
It's very small but surprisingly powerful. Haven't had any issues with it yet. It has some quirks that need figuring out but nothing too bothersome. It's lightweight and easy to hold. Overall I can recommend this phone to anyone who wants a mini phone with normal phone capabilities. Not a fan of the LEDs on the back of the phone though.
It is really small, fast and reliable. The service and relacement parts are very good, even when they send them to Europe. I love it to play music, whatsapp, banking or order a taxi. People are surprised when they see it function.
this phone has been nothing short of amazing. i bought it on a whim after reading all the positive reviews. my life has already changed for the better. this phone has all the abilities and necessities that i need to live daily life but without the temptation to scroll and live on my screen every second of my life. the size is adaptable - i use voice dictation for a lot of my texts when i don’t feel like typing on the keyboard. the quality of phone calls are good too and people i’ve talked to on speaker didn’t even notice i was using an android instead of an iphone. this phone is tiny and perfect. it’s a great conversation starter too.
i feel a general sense of anxiety has been lifted already and ive only had jelly 2 for four days. i used to be so overwhelmed and afraid of rejection when i would send a text to someone or just be unable to relax without checking for notifications all the time but for some reason it’s like the smallness of jelly 2’s screen has completely taken that fear away. i’m able to be more myself over text exchanges now. it’s like im not afraid to be perceived anymore as much - sounds crazy but it seems to be because of this phone…
mindfulness is returning to my life and im beginning to slow down and be present every day again. i never even realized just how addicted i was to dopamine scrolling until i got this. i was skeptical that the idea of a phone like this was just a novelty that would wear off but by the way things have been going i think im gonna make this a permanent change. i’ve already begun getting so many more tasks ive been putting off for years done. productivity and modern day social media and smartphones are natural enemies - but even though jelly 2 is technically a smart phone the size completely erases the probability of becoming addicted to your phone - at least for me
ps i have att and all i did was swap out my sim card in my iphone 12 into jelly 2 and it worked straight away
i got my atom last september 2023, as a secondary phone for my iphone 13 mini. i had my eyes on the jelly star, but decided to go for the rugged Atom, as i know i would not have access to spare parts or repair it if something broke ( in my country), i found someone selling it online, and they got it while abroad.bought it right away, and i loved it from the very beginning, kept going between both phones for different environments and circumstances. but weeks ago, i started to transfer my whats app to this phone, and ditch my iphone in the drawer for a while because i wanted a social media detox ( the atom has all the social media apps but it's not as easy browsing them as on normal phones which is just what i needed) . and i could't be happier now!
pros:
-good battery. i charge it when it's 40% once a day, because it's better for the battery on the long run.
-camera: i LOVE the simple camera specially that i only use (OpenCamera) app. i fiddled around with the settings and knew how best to use them. and i'm really in love with the artistic simple output. sometimes what you need is the bare minimum to let your creativity flow. because i was sooo sick of the overly processed images of all the new phones. plus i already have a mirrorless camera. unlike most reviews i'm happy with it.
-bluetooth is great. sometimes it cuts a bit but only with my bluetooth earphones, and can't maintain a connection with my garmin watch. but with jbl speakers and car it's perfect.
-swype typing on this thing is a breeeze. normal typing is not great.
-loudspeakers are loudd. music is okay if instrumental and acoustic, but something like rock or many equipments create distortion.
-my first android phone (iphone user since 2014) and i'm not really bothered from the bloatware as it is minimal. and the tool box apps that came from unihertz are greatt.
-maintains calls very well even in bad network areas. ( my iphone dropped calls in the same place, that the atom maintained it perfectly! and several times with both so no coincidence here)
-that LED that blinks if i have messages or calls is super useful. as i don't have to open the phone every now and then to see if i got msgs or missed calls. VERY useful and awesome.
-the fact that the phone does not wake up when the screen is touched. (love it)
-fingerprint sensor works great with me, along with facial recognition.
-phone is snappy and fast, rarely rarely have hickups. ( i don't play games or watch stuff on it).
-headphone jack ( use it alot to reduce bluetooth usage, so the battery stays longer)
-final and favorite feature: The Radiooo. i just love the presence of an FM radio on my phone like in old days.
cons:
-google maps (specially car directions) is very hard to see as the UI was created for bigger screens. i have to use the audio to know where to go.
-sometimes the gps signal is not correct, or struggles to update. i think i have to recallibrate the phone sometimes.
-android auto is not pre-installed. i have to download it from google play and it's not available in my country. i managed to find an APK but a couple of months later it was outdated and did not want to start the app at all :(
-speaker in calls ( on the lowest setting) is still a bit loud to me.
-video in camera needed stabilization.
-lowest brightness is still too bright for me in nighttime.
-adaptive brightness does not work perfectly most of the times.
-i don't use dual sim so i wished the other empty tray area could've been used for an SD card expansion.
finally, UNIHERTZ, please, a special request. make a new version of this phone. updated hardware and software. while keeping the exact same dimensions. and i'll be the first to buy it! because really the Atom has everything i need in a phone, and the most important one of them is it's size, and durability, and hopefully the next one will be with a user replaceable battery.
Highly recommend the Atom for people who want a phone that (phones) , keeps them connected, and has all the main utility apps we can't stop using in our life now ( uber, maps, music streaming, NFC, and all that)
Bought one after many hours watching reviews. The phone feels solid and heavy just like a work tool should be. It is the closest thing you can get now to an updated BlackBerry. Android has some small rough edges but is very snappy and you forget the small screen while being productive. Be careful though because everyone will ask you what phone is it and say that it looks cool.
As someone who loves QWERTY physical keyboards, there hasn't been a better smartphone for me. After purchasing it through a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign and using it for about a year and a half, I haven't found anything inconvenient about it and have been using it without any problems. I'm satisfied with its design, performance, and above all, the QWERTY physical keyboard.
However, looking forward to the Unihertz Titan Slim 2, the first thing I hope for is a slimmer design, and secondly, the addition of waterproofing capabilities.
Since Unihertz is a company that makes good small smartphones and smartphones with waterproof features, I believe it's possible.
I want to express my gratitude to Unihertz for making such a great smartphone, looking forward to the next version of the Titan Slim.
The screen of my previous mobile phone broke, so I bought a new mobile phone. I use it daily as primary phone. It's very perfect for me, a student who don't have time to lose in distractions. This phone has the speciality of the leds on the back. They are very useful to know who is calling me when I am in the library. Also, I had the discount of a free accesory and now I use it for running or in the car.
I hate having large phones, which barely fit into my pocket. I have been looking for a small, yet usable smartphone for quite some time and could not find anything, until 2 weeks ago.
The price I was willing to pay for a phone was up to 1000€ ($1100) and there were no serious options, outside of iPhone 12 / 13 mini (which you can see on the photo), but I dont like iOS and the battery on iPhones barely lasts a day, even if its new.
Finally, I have found Jelly Star, which almost perfectly covers my needs. I was worried about the screen at first, if I will be able to write on it (I am tall and have bigger fingers), but did not have any issues, compared to iPhone 12 mini, which I had to correct myself over and over. I was a bit slower at writing though, I would say I can write at 70% of the speed compared to my 6,5" android phone.
Battery is "only" 2000mAh and I was worried about it at first too, but it does not really seem like an issue, unless you want to stress the phone. When idling, the phone takes about 1-2% of battery each hour, with about 70 apps installed, WIFI toggled on and also SIM card with 4G inserted.
I chose to transfer my files from my previous phone to this one with a USB-C to USB-C cable, which I had to buy (they are not so common, but I recommend you to buy one, it will make your life much easier and clonning faster). I have charged the phone before data transfer to 100% and chose to transfer all my contacts, apps, files, settings,... which was around 50GB totally. Its quite a lot of data and many apps (80 at the time of transfer), so even the CPU was stressed a lot because of installing them one by one. The battery got from 100% to 20% during this "stress test" in 2 hours, after that I just unplugged the cable from the phone, charged it for about 30 minutes (which pumped it from 20% to cca 60%) and was able to just reconnect the cable, press a few buttons on the other phone to continue data transfer and the transfer finished).
Photos taken on the phone are comparable to other Android smartphones in this price range. I dont consider not having more lenses as a disadvantage, if you need this for standard use and dont consider yourself an "influencer" taking photos everywhere, or something :D but even then, the photos are very usable. Daytime photos are completely normal, night time not so much, but thats what I expected anyway.
So, do I consider this phone worth your money? Certainly yes! I am a developer and spend a lot of time on my PC and phone and was looking for something usable, as a minimalist phone, which I can use in case of emergency (to respond to important emails, connect remotely to SSH console, or anything else requiring an Android APP). So if your case is the same, this can be a full replacement of your phone, which you can, but dont want to use (for scrolling instagram, facebook, tiktok and other things all day).
The Jelly Star is surprisingly powerful (nothing lags!) incredibly practical (especially with the little wrist lanyard), reasonably priced, rapidly delivered, and amazingly usable despite its tiny size. 5/5 stars, supremely recommended. I'm using it as my work phone and for such practicalities as "map navigation, music, torchlight, and clock, at hand at all times".
Excellent produit 👍 . Les points forts : qualité ,fluidité, rapidité, vidéo projecteur, puissance du logiciel, autonomie batterie,bon son
I absolutely love my Titan Pocket! As someone who lives with finger and hand issues, typing on a screen has been rather hard for me to do. The keyboard has been amazing and nostalgic! Also, I tend to drop things a lot, but my Titan Pocket, tho showing tiny dings, is still motoring along like nothing happened! I'm about to take it on the Appalachian Trail, and I have zero worries!
Hey Slim, reverse the comma and period placement on the physical keyboard (it would then be the best compact physical keyboard phone on the planet!). The period/comma placement isn't ideal imho. Of course, If that is the only con, that is saying something.
Incidentally, like others, I have had all of the physical keyboard phones ever made, and the Titan Slim is the best you can buy - by far - in terms of use and 4G+ functionality. When the carrier dropped the last BlackBerry, I bought the Titan Slim as a holdover while waiting for the Astro or Pro1x. Titan Slim works out of the box. Others promise and have yet to deliver. Slim makes and takes calls, texts, and has a two day battery to boot. It is not a BlackBerry, but it is close. Slim is my daily driver and proud to use it. It needs only the period/comma reversed, a micro-SD slot, and the newest Android software. If a Slim II 5G comes out, I will buy.
I haven't had a problem with the fingerprint sensor placement like others have mentioned, but I also keep it in its leather pouch to protect it from the elements. Oh, and if Unihertz wants to continue to innovate, reach out to us power users for input on future models. We know what we want in a physical keyboard phone.
Thank you for building the Titan Slim!!!
Barang dijamin original, saya salah seorang pembeli daripada Malaysia... Barang dah sampai dalam keadaan selamat... Seller dan app ni dijamin selamat dan trusted... Jadi ap tnggu lagi,,, Tq seller & rider delivery you all the best...
I bought the Unihertz Jelly 2 because I was so sick of all the huge phones that were a strain on the fingers to use for long periods of time and also never fit comfortably into half my pants' pockets.
I was prepared for a steep learning curve and sub-par performance considering the price, size and some YouTube reviews. But I have been using the Jelly 2 as my only phone for months now (only just realised there was a review tab on the site) and am SO in love with how comfortable it is to use.
I use my Jelly 2 for calls, to track my runs, message, read through some documents and e-books, play music, make contactless payments, watch Netflix (yes, I watch movies on this!) and even play Mobile Legends Bang Bang (won 16 of my last 20 watches with MVP for some).
Granted, switching to the Jelly 2 takes some getting used to but practice makes perfect. I now type with almost the same amount of accuracy as on a 6" phone.
The battery life is surprisingly good; I can last from 5.40am till 9pm having tracked a run, handled some messages and calls, about an hour of video, one MLBB game and some music.
I only wish it were more rugged; may have to upgrade to an Atom L one day! In the meantime, I love how I barely even feel my Jelly 2 on my arm strap when I run!
I really do -like- this phone. I tried/own a "lite phone II" which I find entirely too restrictive. This was an "upgrade" to my venerable Palm PVG100 (pictured in comparison below). There are always trade-offs going small. I think the Jelly 2 is an admirable step in the right direction please continue to improve this basic design.
The Good: Decent battery life, Android 11, All the basic phone functions you would expect from a smartphone. Headphone Jack. Decent performance. Standard screen dimensions, Decent sound quality, (speakerphone is meh). Excellent storage & ram specs, camera is quite functional, if not overly exciting. Covers all the US LTE bands/carriers, good reception.
The Bad: Note the size comparison to the PVG100, The Jelly 2 is just a "teensie" bit too small. The flat footprint needs to be the actual size or a mm or so larger square than a credit card, so that you can put a credit card sized card in the case. Note the 'wallet' case will not close with a card in the holder. The phone is a little fatter than I would like. I would prefer something between this and the PVG100 (which had abysmal battery life). The GPS is somewhat weak, hard to do without a decent antenna.
If android auto would ever get reasonably stable ...
This phone is perfect for someone who does not want to be tied to their phone, but want's to carry around a small but fully functional device for those occasions when you may need it. I avoid doing any work on my phone, but I do from time to time like to review what I want to look at when I get back to a desktop. Further I want full access to my contacts/address books no matter where I am at.
The wish list: ** Slightly larger rectangle (credit card+) ** , thinner (maybe ~12-14mm but keep the battery life). Camera's keep getting better but keep the costs down. USB-C docking with a desktop function (like DeX). I would love to be able to put on a standard linux build with "Plasma Mobile" and get rid of my laptop! (I also have a pinephone, Hey! it's the *wish* list).
My ideal device would allow me to carry it in my front shirt pocket with a card case (wallet or back) an ID, and a card or two

sono innamorato di questo mini smartphone. Versatile e funzionale si dimentica di averlo in tasca. Memoria capiente ed eccellente per uso domotica.
Lo uso anche come smart key.
Attendo nuova versione più sottile.
Uno smartphone da acquistare senza preoccupazioni.
I love this phone so much. It works really well just like a normal smartphone but due to the mall screen size i spend lot less Time on my smartphone and more time being in the moment. I Wish it had better camera though and a thinner and lighter design build. Otherwise I am very happy.
