6/19/2023 0 Comments Titan pocket phone![]() The keyboard is probably as close as you can get to a BlackBerry Bold without getting sued. The Titan Pocket design is comfortably solid. Speaking of which, the phone has a notification LED, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and even an IR blaster. ![]() The rivets and gray metal-and-plastic back don't look like any previous device, but the whole package takes you straight back to 2008. The phone is an homage without being a copy. Unihertz got the design really right here. The square screen is very rare among Android phones, but I'm happy to say that it didn't actually crash any of the third-party apps I tried. Unihertz says the body is "drop resistant" but not water resistant.Īt 7.61 ounces, it's heavier than your old BlackBerry Classic but still within comfortable holding weight, and at 2.88 inches wide, you should be able to type one-handed. That's smaller than the BlackBerry Classic (3.5 inches) but larger than the Bold 9900 (2.8 inches). And on the front, there's a perfect little keyboard surmounted by a 3.1-inch, 716-by-720 screen. On the back, an "H" of metal surrounds soft-touch plastic. The Titan Pocket is a solid lump of phone. The phone will cost $299 after the presale period, but for now you can get it at a (frequently shifting) discount. Kickstarter is just how Unihertz drums up interest, as it doesn't have much of a marketing budget. The company uses Kickstarter as a presale platform, but this isn't a crowdsourced phone. The Titan Pocket, on the other hand, is very close to the size of 2014's BlackBerry Classic, though it's still larger than the legendary BlackBerry Bold. Last year, it rolled out the Titan, a QWERTY phone that many people found unusably large: It's 3.66 inches wide and weighs 10 ounces. Unihertz specializes in quirky phone designs, like the tiny Jelly 2.
