There was a brief moment when there was a tech being talked about that would shift the glass coating to give tactile feedback on a touchscreen…
Going back to something I might finally stop having to completely relearn from changing phone sizes, just sounds better somehow, even though they arent perfect.
I have a Unihertz Titan, using it to write this, and it is a good phone but it has a strange display ratio that so many apps don’t understand. So many apps are borderline unusable and you have to force the display into 16:9 “mini mode”. That works but not that good because everything gets tiny in this mode.
The novelty of a hardware keyboard is lost very quickly and I don’t think that I would buy the phone again if I knew back then what I knew now.
This is not really the fault of the phone but more that nearly all app developer only bother to include a 16:9 vertical screen option and that’s it.
Thanks for the info, that’s good to know. So the phone is good otherwise? I see on their site they also have some “normal” style phones, maybe I should consider one of them instead.
Yes, I don’t have a complain at all with the hardware (besides the display aspect) or the software on the phone.
It works great, the bootloader is easy unlockable (which is importand for me) and the device is sturdy.
The G1 with the slide out keyboard was so nice from an interface perspective. I had been saying for years and years how I would love a modern version of the G1, but in the last few years smartphones have been ruined enough that I don’t even want that anymore.
Oh man, full keyboards… A dream
That company just rolled out the physical keyboard add on. I’m very lazy, but if pressed I will dig up a link
I loved the hell out of my N900. An actual computer in your pocket.
I’ve been looking into a new phone, and I’m seriously considering one of those “Unihertz Titan” ones with the physical keyboard.
Unihertz is making some cool phones
