Customers find the size of the cellular phone too large to use as a daily driver. They also say the app screen size is too small to view the whole page. The battery is great but will take over 5 hours to charge. Some mention that the rectangular screen is very nearly square and it screws with lots of apps. The phone looks like a miniature tablet and won't fit most pouches or holsters. The square screen aspect ratio can cause issues with apps.

The keypad is great. The key layout does take a bit of getting used to, with shift and alt being above the keypad rather than below them. But once you get used to it, it's almost flawless. The keys are easy to press and it's comfortable to type on for long periods. The backlighting is a bit uneven on my device, but it doesn't bother me.
The only real complaint I have is with the camera. I had assumed it would be the same module as in the Atom, which has a quite decent camera. However, I think the camera module used in the Titan is different. The camera software is definitely different and missing some features, such as slow-motion and panorama. It takes adequate photos outdoors, but relatively poor photos and videos indoors, and the autofocus is extremely finicky and will only stay locked on a target for a few seconds before returning to the center. Plus, it's mounted so that the device needs to be held sideways to capture in landscape orientation. Due to the device's large size, this is cumbersome and uncomfortable. The camera app does offer square capture modes by default, but those result in significant cropping of the image. Because of the poor experience using the Titan's camera, when I expect to take photos or videos, I generally have either my Atom or a standalone camera with me.
I do not play mobile games but I would guess that the form factor would make that difficult, though emulators would probably work well due to the physical keypad. However, I think it's pretty clear that's not what this device is designed for.
The battery life is incredible. I am a heavy user with several hours of screen time per day, plus not having fixed-line internet at home (rural area) means I rely on the mobile hotspot function nearly all the time. This phone will last 25-30 hours with the hotspot on, which is more than I've ever gotten on any device (I'm used to 5 or 6 hours in that use case.) It does not charge quickly, drawing a maximum of 7.5 W from a power supply, but the relatively slow rate at which that charges the approximately 22 Wh battery means I don't need to worry about excessive wear from heat. The time taken to charge is also offset by the very long battery life.
As far as software updates are concerned, this device does appear to already be EOL, with the latest security patch being September 2020. This is my fourth Unihertz device (two Jelly Pros (one died an unfortunate death by being accidentally washed and dried - it powered up when plugged in, but didn't respond to touches or button presses) and one Atom have preceded this device,) and that appears to be par for the course with Unihertz devices - they historically have provided one major Android update, and then support for a few months after that, before moving on. It's not great, but not a big deal to me - however, it is something to keep in mind if you intend to purchase this device.
The software is not perfect. As some others have pointed out, disabling App Blocker is a must. Otherwise the system kills background tasks almost immediately. I believe this is a Mediatek (SoC vendor) function rather than a Unihertz function, but I could be wrong. Regardless, you will absolutely want to disable App Blocker. Previous Unihertz devices included a function called DuraSpeed, which did the same thing.
Also a must is enabling Rotation Control under Intelligent Assistance. The display is technically portrait, being 4 pixels taller than it is wide. This causes some apps (YouTube, for example) to want to rotate the screen sideways, making holding the device very awkward, as described above with the camera. Rotation Control allows you to override this, forcing apps to display in the correct orientation.
Performance is good. As a purely anecdotal statement, the only time I've noticed any slowdowns or stuttering is when connecting or disconnecting Android Auto, but that seems to make any phone struggle a bit.
Overall I'm extremely happy with my Titan. I had wanted one when it was launched but due to several factors going on for me at the time, I couldn't afford one, even at the reduced pre-launch price. I bought it initially just to collect it, but I almost immediately started using it as my primary phone. There are a few imperfections here and there, as mentioned above, but overall Unihertz produced an extremely good device.
Please reconsider purchasing if you don't want to spend time with the phone getting it how you want. It took me quite a while to get this phone to work well, and I'm pretty familiar with Android. I had issues with notifications, background apps shutting down, the launcher changing after different button presses, a message telling me to remove the plastic film over the distance sensor every time I unlocked it, and an overall laggy feeling to the phone. These are all straightforward fixes if you take the time to go through the settings menu and developer settings. Any apps that you want to run in the background (such as a VPN) or give you notifications (alternate messaging apps/social media) required me to adjust the app blocker settings within the intelligent assistance menu and battery optimization settings. All of these things are fine with me and make the purchase fun and engaging. I don't leave phones how they come, so this may not be an average experience. I remove all Google services, use a VPN at all times, change the launcher, change the icons, use alternative SMS, NAV, APK downloader, weather, and others.
The reviews that are on here from the past year are almost void at this point. Every negative mentioned from when these first came out has been handled. The keyboard backlight needing a button press to operate was eliminated with a swipe motion or setting change, allowing it to remain on with your screen's backlight. The security update was just in July 2021, as of September 2021, and is running on Android 10. Before this last update, you could not double click space to get a period which was a massive waste of time typing, but they got that fixed, and it only doesn't work within forms, which makes sense. The keyboard and home touch button are working just fine so far. The square aspect ratio is perfect for what I use the phone for, but if you watch many videos, you should understand it will be about half the size of a typical smartphone.
The Good -
- Battery
- Keyboard
- Build Quality
- Able to be optimized for your use
- Looks okay from the front and side
- Loud rear speaker (also a con)
- Headphones
The Not so Good-
- Requires Android knowledge to make it function properly
- Comes a bit buggy
- Keyboard stiff and sticky when you first use it
- loudspeaker faces the rear and is a single unit
- Cheap plastic screen protectors
- Bottom corners dig into your hands when watching a video or reading long text
- Camera
- Screen contrast
All in all, I think this is the most enjoyable phone I've had in quite some time. It is perfect for me, and I have enjoyed using it so far. I hope it is now a reliable and handy tool to have. I wish it were a little more expensive to accommodate a faster processer, better screen, and a camera, but I didn't buy this for any of those reasons. The processor processes, the screen shows everything just fine, and the camera takes usable pictures and has enough detail to zoom in a bit if needed. If you're looking for a rugged keyboard phone, this is your option. People mainly compare it to Blackberry devices, but I think it's fairer to be compared to other rugged phones, especially at this price point. Many other phones at this price point have much better peripherals, but they certainly aren't as unique or enjoyable to use as the Unihertz Titan.

Top reviews from other countries
Die gesamte Hardware entspricht genau meinen Vorstellungen. Software und der Support von Unihertz sind allerdings nicht gut. Das Gerät wird nur mit Android 10 und ohne weitere Updates ausgeliefert. Das letzte Sicherheitsupdate hat es im Februar 2023 erhalten und es wird kein weiteres Update mehr geben. Der Support wurde von Unihertz eingestellt.
Glücklicherweise hat das Gerät eine kleine aber feine Fangemeinschaft, die sich um aktuelle ANdroid-Versionen bemüht. Man kann es Rooten und aktuell selbst mit LinageOS20/Android13 zum Laufen bringen. Ich selbst nutze es so und bin sehr überrascht, wie viel besser es im Vergleich zum originalen Unihertz Android 10 läuft. Akkulaufzeit ist bei mir bei regelmäßiger Nutzung 2 bis 3 Tage.
Durch die Möglichkeit, es selbst zu Rooten und so auch zukünftig mit aktuellen Android-Versionen nutzen zu können, hat das Titan einiges an Zukunftssicherheit gewonnen. Man ist von Herstellerupdates unabhängig, muss aber auch den Setupaufwand für sich eingehen wollen und wissen, was man auf Systemebene wie konfigurieren kann, um ein sicheres Gerät zu erhalten.
Alles in allem ist das Titan ein wunderbares Stück Hardware mit einer gelungenen Tastatur und allen Möglichkeiten, auch fern ab von Google ein Androidsystem zukunftssicher betreiben zu können.
Ist man einfach nur Anwender und möchte sich selbst um die Systempflege nicht kümmern, würde ich das Titan nicht empfehlen. Man bekommt deutlich günstigere Smartphones mit zugesicherten Sicherheitsupdates und aktuelleren Android-Versionen.
- massive long life battery
- big buttons
- big screen
- better fingerprit sensor than on all Blackberry devices
- the phone is resistant to falls, water, dust etc...
Now look on negative feedback:
- the phone is really big heavy brick (looks like they try make copy of BlackBerry Passport, but this is step out)
- very bad camera
- on back side can you see two holes for stereo reproductors, but sound goes out only from left hole
- poor quality microphones
- 14nm old technology and I think that ma old BB KEY2 is faster than this device
- slow bluetooth transfer
- wifi is little weak (sometimes you lost signal)
- charging battery is very long time for today
- the phone is very wide and is hard to write on
- official keyboard software "KIKA" is VERY VERY BAD !!! If you want using normally your keyboard, you must uninstall that and download BlackBerry Keyboard.

- the phone is really big heavy brick (looks like they try make copy of BlackBerry Passport, but this is step out)
- very bad camera
- on back side can you see two holes for stereo reproductors, but sound goes out only from left hole
- poor quality microphones
- 14nm old technology and I think that ma old BB KEY2 is faster than this device
- slow bluetooth transfer
- wifi is little weak (sometimes you lost signal)
- charging battery is very long time for today
- the phone is very wide and is hard to write on
- official keyboard software "KIKA" is VERY VERY BAD !!! If you want using normally your keyboard, you must uninstall that and download BlackBerry Keyboard.
It's big. VERY big. Bigger than a Blackberry 8700. It's a brick. But, like Father Jack Hackett, I do love my brick.
It's a run of the mill android phone inside. Helio P60, 6gb of RAM and 128gb of storage are fine specs for a device like this. It runs most apps perfectly fine. There is an update to Android 10 too. It reminds me of my old Umidigi Plus E. Big, black, metal and powerful.
The overall experience is stellar. It's snappy and wonderful to use. There are a lot of updates which have improved the phone significantly. Most video reviews of the Titan are outdated and don't hold up anymore. Believe me. It's nowhere near as bad as everyone says.
The keyboard is good, but could be better. It's flat, so typing with it can be a bit difficult at first, but you soon get accustomed to it. The keys are clicky and have just enough travel. I've heard a lot of people complain about how it's strange going from physical keys to a capacitive home button - don't listen to those people. It's a stupid complaint made by stupid people who obviously never owned Blackberries or early android phones...or even touch screen feature phones...like the Samsung Soul or the LG Chocolate...Google them...
When you press SHIFT or ALT, there is an indicator which appears in the status bar to let you know what status it's in - uppercase, lowercase, held uppercase, alt, held alt.
Gonna be honest, the keyboard is great. Whether you're just texting, writing a quick note, or using a terminal emulator to access a remote computer and execute commands like a nerd, it holds up well. However, the scrolling feature can be a little annoying.
The screen is fine. You're not buying this phone to watch video, so eh. It's bright and clear. I might sound crazy, but I think this screen would be better if it had a matte display like that of the Blackberry 7200 series. Those screens were dope.
There's a dedicated red button which can be programmed to do stuff like media functions, Google Assist, PTT and other stuff. You can also make shortcuts for the standard keyboard to. (Press C once to open the camera, hold to open Chrome...)
I would recommend getting a case. Not to protect the phone, but to protect yourself and anyone you end up throwing it at. The metal edges cut in to your hand a bit while holding it.
The speaker is loud, but mono and tinny. When you hold the phone, the sound can be shrill and ear piercing. When sat on a desk, the audio is muffled. But it has a headphone jack so...swings and roundabouts?
Battery is phenomenal. It goes on and on and on and on...
Cameras are awful. The default audio recorder is dreadful, for some reason. I downloaded an ad-free app called "audio recorder" and it sounded fine. Don't know what the matter is with the default audio app. (I do a lot of audio notes) Again, you aren't buying this phone to take pretty selfies. If you are, you made some seriously bad decisions in your life.
