Ok it’s 4G and Android 12, so a little bit behind the times, and weighs over a pound, but it has 65 watt fast charging and a built in 1200 lumen flashlight (I wonder if that doubles as a video light). I found out about it a few days ago and have been fascinated by it since then. The weight isn’t so bad if you consider that it gets rid of the need to bring a power bank.

Not gonna buy real soon but wow. Maybe they will do a 5G version sometime. I posted in another community that I want to be able to pull it out and say “that’s not a phone, THIS is a phone”.

Any thoughts?

    Check out the ulephone power armor 18 ultra, has the same shit but runs Android 13 and has 5g. I’ve had the non-ultra version a few months now and love it, about to trade up.

      Old post but I just looked at that Ulephone and its battery capacity is “only” 9600 mah non-removable, while it weighs 409g and costs $550. I think that’s not a big enough capacity jump to justify a weird heavy off-brand phone when a $150 Motorola has 5000mah and weighs 200g. Unihertz is also off-brand and expensive, but the 22,000 mah battery makes it interesting.
