Unihertz Titan Review in 2023 - Still Worth It? 

This video made me want to put my sim back in my Titan Pocket

Still using my Passport and Key2LE. How's the keyboard on the Titan? People who tested it were not too excited back then and how the keyboard is better on the other Titans is often mentioned

​@@cesareborgia6431 Got the Titan OG after my KeyOne fell apart. KeyOne keyboard was better but you eventually get used to the Titan keyboard. I've had it for a year. The keys start out really stiff but soften over time as many others have said. The great thing is the phone really seems difficult to break and the battery lasts really well. Hasn't got a scratch yet although I do use a folio cover. The KeyOne was so fragil and needed duct tape to extend it's short life even with the official folio cover.

Yup my main phone is the Titan Slim

@@sargeant1hundred The Keyone was a terrible phone from the start. The keyboard was too stiff, it wasn't a very durable phone, and right out of the box it was slow as heck. The Key2 LE is what the Keyone should have been and was great. The Titan series are not perfect but have done a great job keeping keyboard phones alive. I have all three Titans, the Slim and the OG are amazing.

Very true!!

Or a slide keyboard with Galaxy specs and display

I want this badly 😁

It would be nice to see!

Just curious, have you literally been praying to the Lord for keyboard phones to come back? I mean, I wouldn't blame you. It just never occurred to me to take the issue of keyboard phones straight to the top.

Astro Slide is my daily use. It can take a pounding, including falling on the floor from a hospital gurney a couple of months ago. Both of us are still alive and working.

Count your blessings that you received your Astro Slide Transformer 5G. I am visually impaired and had ordered one over a year ago through their Indiegogo campaign as it reminded me of the old Verizon LG Envy feature phone I once had. Guess what. No phone and no refund. I am still very angry about this because I see that some of their backers received their phones and are happy clams. I'm not one of them.

That would be awesome!

Thanks! Glad you found the channel!

Look at the Unihertz Tick Tock 5G, thats the phone you might want.

@@MegaHeelhook Sadly it lacks the keyboard which is my biggest reason to want the Titan. The TickTock does seem to have just about everything else though

That bottom row having the space bar between letters has kept me away. It's just wrong.

Yes, the cats are always great!

No, they don't really give that info out and it seems like once or twice a year if it gets them. With Android 10 no longer getting patches from Google though, I think this might be it.

Thanks for watching!

Since I left this comment, I have purchased the Titan. I am really liking this phone and everything it does. I wish Unihertz would continue the security updates for this phone. I may try to figure out how to put LineageOS on but for now I am good. I actually really like the size. Comparing it to a modern smart phone like my wife’s iPhone 13, the Titan is wider but shorter than the iPhone 13. I love the ruggedness of the phone and the feel of the various textures on the phone. Using the keyboard is pretty good but the one thing that could be better in the next phone is the key design itself. The keys are too flat to easily differentiate the keys. Having them be round like the old Palm Treo/Pre or more like wedges on the BlackBerrys would make it easier to find the key you want especially when you aren’t looking at the phone. Otherwise I am very happy with this phone. If there is to be a new Titan family phone coming out, I hope they make a change with the keys and that it has a removable battery.

It does! Backlit keyboard. A decent one as well. You will like it!

@@StevealiciousTech Thanks for the quick reply.

Hmmm, that's a good question. I will look into it but the BB hub has been failing for a while. Mine will connect but it doesn't do so reliably so I discarded it. Thanks as always!

BB Hub is working fine in my Titan Slim.

@@balajim3045 wow, I wonder what I am doing wrong, oh, I use office 365, so my BB hub trys to connet to 365 and 365 refuses due to supposedly BB hub security. By chance do you connect to office (microsoft) 365?

I have the same question, hopefully he can chime in on this.

You can use it I mean I think you can I have the pocket but deciding if I should get the titan

short hand txt 2, whats that?

It should be!

@@StevealiciousTech thanks bro, I decided to get it. I will be waiting and see how does it work. I have a question, I hear something about some bb services that can be installed in this device, do you know what and how ??

That's what I hate most about most phone reviewers. They handwave out serious issues like how fragile the device is, how expensive and complicated screen protectors are on a curved screen, notches in general, and how stupid not having an audio jack is. And they'll put way too much importance on how overpowered the camera is, or whatever new spyware they've got installed "for your convenience"

No one reading such a long message ,do your research

@@wtf-losangeles-review - yeah, I know - but still I had to drop the comment, just in case. Cause the info on such phones is very little and I want to try all the possible options :)

I don't believe so. But at least it is on Android 10 and not 8.

No noise on my Titan OG after one year. I got one of the last folio covers on Amazon. But the Unihertz site still has the official rubber cover I think.

Why would you even need a case the whole phone is protected with what feels like an otterbox on steroids.

WOW. Definitely….”inspired by” isn’t it lol. That said, Nothing isn’t selling their phone in the US, so that’s on them if Unihertz is able to come scoop up that market. I wish Nothing was selling here.

Just swapping sims is all I do. And you can have a backup linked to a Google account but once you set them all up you should be fine.

@@StevealiciousTech Doesn't this cause issues when you put the sim back in? Like the text messages wont sync properly?

@@impetuosity3381 Google messages has ways around that but yes, it’s not ideal for that. But there is chat backup

Don't know! Usually, a keyboard phone would be next up in their cycle...perhaps after the Luna launches.

@@StevealiciousTech Thanks for the reply ! Will subscribe so that I don't miss if you hear some rumors !

Yep!

@@StevealiciousTech Oh man, I loved that so much. Over the years, I developed my own personal shorthand for the most common English words and phrases, and I could type like a bat out of hell, with murderous accuracy. If there's any single thing I miss about BlackBerry, it's that. On my current Android, if I have to do any writing that matters, longer than a few sentences, I put the phone down and go to my laptop. On my BlackBerry Passport, I didn't need no stinkin laptop, I'd happily write anything on it, without feeling like I needed to comb through it for autocorrect gaffes.

Depends, mine didn't and the entire screen is occupied by a second keyboard while I'm using the physical keyboard, which drives me insane. I wouldn't recommend it, out of sheer paranoia that you'd get one that isn't working right and their customer service refuse to help anyone.

It's still working just fine but I think it's on Android 11, that's probably all it's going to get.

@@StevealiciousTech thank you for your quick reply!

Yes, should work without issue!

Yeahhhhh, the Android 12L update was iffy on it. A shame!

@@StevealiciousTech is get the 2, but it's the same phone with better speakers and camera. What good is it of the software is buggy

Backlit keyboard is fine, but this isn't a phone you buy for the camera for sure.

yes it does

After researching dumb phones and feature phones, I have found that people are still even recommending certain phones that run custom Android 7 versions. That being said if there are people out there buying and using phones that run Android 7, as long as it isn't older than Android 6 your fine. So the Titan running Android 10 should be perfect for anyone who uses their device for basic personal needs and work. I intend to buy one and use it with/for the Blackberry suite+keyboard, banking apps, email, calls, and texting/messaging. As long as you aren't experimenting with lots of software, shady stuff, tweaking/tinkering, or etc. you should be fine having this as a daily carry.

They are pretty cool!

No, unfortunately not.

What about Titan pocket?

Lol, the Nextbit.

No, it has wretched security, so I wound even try it.

They didn’t. Change just enough, and it’s not technically copying. That said, I bet things would be different if TCB or whoever was actually still making and selling blackberry phones.

Nice!

I don't have it on me...but I would be willing to guess a year.

For that reason, should I get the Pocket instead? @@StevealiciousTech

Yep, can definitely be downloaded.

It should be available there through their website!

You say that like it's a bad thing! Take what we can get at this point, unfortunately.
