Unihertz Titan Pocket, Small QWERTY Smartphone Android 11 Unlocked NFC Smart Phone (Support T-Mobile & Verizon only)

The Unihertz Titan Pocket is like a modern day Blackberry Q10 or a Blackberry Classic or maybe more a combination of the two. This phone combines the style, size and feel of my Blackberry Q10 (in a beefier but not larger package) paired with a modern Android 11 operating system. It literally gives me the revival of my Q10 with a very good keyboard and apps that just work and when I say apps that work so far that has been pretty much without compromise. You will read reviews that will warn you off from the small screen and the square display but I've not found that to be much of a compromise. For some apps, such as Netflix or Prime Video, this is not the phone that will give you the best experience (of course) but they certainly still work but there are so many other options to use those services on other better devices than a phone, including our laptops and TVs, I just don't find this much of a compromise.For the reported downsides of a number of the other reviews here for WiFi drop out or Bluetooth disconnect I've experienced none of that. Everything works well. As others have said here, the build quality in terms of being a sturdy phone is quite nice. The phone offers some small improvement over the original Passport style Titan by getting rid of the recessed camera and screen sensors which always needed cleaning by bringing those flush to the face of the phone, the angles of the phone are somewhat nicer and although the keyboard is less roomy than it's bigger brother (so I'm a bit slower in my typing) it still manages to allow me to type quite fluidly with an absolutely wonderful keypress feedback (as good as my key2 and a bit better than my Q10). The scrolling via the keyboard is smoother than that the original Titan and the keyboard is wonderfully backlit. The ability to easily program every key to multiple apps and functions keeps your fingers off the screen and eliminates working your way through screen menus, everything is available from a key press. As for Phone call quality, that is good and the speaker for phone calls is clear and loud, battery life is great due to the small display.Don't buy this phone if you are NOT looking for a small phone that fits easily in your pocket and can be used one handed as it offers that as a throwback feature with wonderful balance and feel in your hand, to a time before all phones became large flat oversized glass slabs. If you are looking to buy a phone for the camera forget it, this is not your phone. Cameras are functional no more.Having used the larger Unihertz Titan for almost 3 years and never finding the square display to be problematic for apps i still was quite suspensions that this screen (3.1) would just be too small or problematic and that fear kept me from trying this phone for a long time but for me that has not been problematic at all.Lastly I would say that the Android 11 version of software provided by Unihertz has the leastbloatware of any phone I've used with many wellthroughout features like the ability to assign every app to function in landscape or portrait or even settings for force portrait or forced landscape. Also, there a nice set of software tools (apps) in their included toolbox. It's a well priced phone that gives good value but targeted for a small user audience that might appreciate some of the features described here.

This seems like a great phone that I could use as a dumbed down smartphone (WhatsApp, GPS but no Browser... I need my life back). It said it works with Verizon and I got the phone, threw in my SIM card, jumped on a wireless network, spent hours configuring the phone with all the software I need. Jumped off the wireless network and nothing worked. The "data" portion is not compatible with Verizon wireless. This is a let down and a waste of time. But I can make a phone call. That part still works. Just nothing else. I feel bad for this manufacturer because they need to upgrade the phone's hardware to 4G or 5G. This is a 3G phone and Verizon must have phased that out.

I have no idea why manufacturers think everyone wants the same giant, all-touchscreen, time-sucking smartphone. It took an unreasonably long time to find a phone with a full QWERTY keyboard, but now that I've found it, it is PERFECT. I absolutely love the titan pocket. It's the perfect size, rugged, durable, with great features. It works perfectly for me on T-Mobile and has every feature that one needs in a phone. Personally, I do NOT want social media on any phone, but you of course have the option to download those apps if you want them. I've had all physical QWERTY phones my entire life, and only switched to this smartphone because they quit service to my blackberry (despite the fact that it was still in pretty perfect condition, mms and calls started failing). It IS nice having Spotify, maps, uber, and other "necessary" apps available. It is simple and intuitive to use. I love that a long press of the red (programmable) key on the side turns on the flashlight and a short press turns on the keyboard backlight. AirPods connect with no problem, sound is good, battery is long-lasting, and of course, the keyboard is great. I hope that this phone continues being made for ever!
