Review: An excellent dinky phone - I have wanted a small smartphone for a long time and have tried a couple different devices (e.g. Cubot Kingkong mini 2 pro and some other older androids) but in the end decided to go with Jelly Star. It's a great phone which packs more features that most flag ships today. You get your 8GB RAM, 256 GB internal storage, SD card slot, IR blaster to control your TV with, rear mounted fingerprint senson, even a headphone jack and my favourite - front LED notification light (as well as those funky LED lights on the back). In terms of performance, Helio G99 is only a 4G SOC but plenty fast and in terms of performance, I'd say it's on par with midrange phones of yesteryear such as Pixel 4A. It may get a touch warm under load but never hot and due to its tiny size, you are not likely to play Genshin Impact on it anyway (although it can handle it well) and my kids borrow it when I'm not looking to play Pokemon Go :) Screen is positively tiny (3") and relatively low resolution but due to its small size you still get decent pixel density so image quality is actually very good. Camera is OK. Nothing to write home about but for casual snaps and video calls it's OK. Battery life - Now I am not a huge phone user as I prefer to use other devices to browse the internet and watch stuff online so your mileage may vary. With phone being fully charged by 6AM, I have about 60% battery left by 10 PM. That's with some web browsing, phone calls, online banking and some other app use. I am perfectly happy with this. Signal quality is decent and phone calls are OK. One thing I was worried about was the typing experience on such a small screen. I am fairly tall with big hands and chunky fingers so I was surprised to see how easy it was to type on it. Your experience may differ but I find that using glide typing on gboard works very well and I don't have any issues with it. Small screen is obviously not ideal for use with apps like Google Sheets but for general viewing is OK if you manage your expectations. I got the phone delivered around mid-September 2023 and got one firmware update since then. I would not expect any Android updates on this device (given Unihertz history) but it would be nice to get at least a few Android security updates going forward. It runs on fairly stock Android 13 so you should not have any issues with app compatibility. It has 8 GB of RAM so multitasking should not be an issue but I found that the system is very, very trigger happy with killing apps running in the background, to the point where it liked to kill my music player when streaming via bluetooth in my car. You can change this 'optimisation' on per app basis in settings (which worked) but I don't see the need to have 8GB RAM to just kill everything else that's not running mentality (but that is similar with other Android devices). Overall, I am really happy with this device and I'm planning to keep it as my daily driver for a long time. By the way, I just got a new work phone which is a giant 6.6" Samsung. I found that keeping those two phones together on my desk is always a good conversation starter.
Review: So much better than I was expecting - I am extremely impressed with this phone. It is completely functional despite being tiny, extremely light, and astonishingly cheap. For context, I am coming from an iPhone 11 Pro and purchased this because I wanted something lighter and smaller for Anki and Duolingo. This is about half the weight and size of my iPhone. It is absolutely perfect for Anki; the text is completely legible, the controls work well, the speaker is perfectly sufficient for audio files containing speech on the cards, and most importantly, it is so light and small that I can easily use it one-handed for hours with minimal fatigue even while laying in bed. The experience is exactly the same as on my phone, except much better thanks to the size and weight. That said, typing is a bit inconvenient for cards that require typed answers, but I don't have too many of those and it's still perfectly doable, you just need to be a bit more careful. Duolingo is a bit less optimal in that the app is different than on a larger device, but it is completely functional all the same; it's just that you have to tap a button to bring up the answer choices and there aren't as many to choose from, but this is at most a minor inconvenience and in fact I would even consider it a step up from the default experience to some degree since it prevents you from accidentally seeing the answer while thinking of it. In terms of performance, I have not noticed any lag or stuttering at all. In fact, I would say that the performance is better than my iPhone 11 Pro based on how quick it is to navigate around the phone and open apps, but since I don't have an Android device to reference I can't say how much of that is due to the OS. Obviously the phone itself feels pretty cheap and I'm not enamored by the unnecessary camera bump and things like that, but given that I only paid 180 GBP for it I'm not docking any points for that. Considering the price and that this is the only smartphone available at this size and weight which supports a (relatively) recent OS, I think the five star rating is fully justified. I am very happy that someone is still making reasonably sized phones and am so pleased with this little thing that I'm probably going to end up installing LineageOS and making it my main device.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pocket sized 4G phone with all the basic functions you want - just smaller
*by J***. on 28 June 2024*

I took a risk on the Jelly Star as I'm fed up lugging around a massive smartphone to listen to music when I'm running cross-country. It's great for that, with a headphone jack for those of us who don't want to use Bluetooth. I also like that it fits in the pockets of mtb shorts without feeling awkward against your leg (I'm a size 6 UK person), also it doesn't ruin the hang of your regular clothes. You can use your old handbags that have the pocket for a clamshell! Texting is fine, the keyboard is surprisingly not too small for my fingers. It charges really fast, about half an hour. The battery life's not great, you'll want to recharge daily - I've turned off the LED feature because of that. The main weakness is the camera, which is definitely not as good as others on the market. Overall, I am very pleased with it - a good price for a phone that solves the too-big problem. Not for gamers.
