Unihertz Jelly Star Mini Smartphone, 3 Inch the World's Smallest Tiny Cell Phone 4G Android 13 Transparent Design LED Light NFC OTG, Blue (NO Charger)

A couple of months in now, and this phone has been perfect for my 10 year old's first phone. Originally I considered a dumb phone, but really wanted tracking so needed to go smart. I wanted small so it could fit into his pocket nicely and also would deter him from wanting to play too many games on it. I've locked it down using Google Family link, which means he can only install apps with my permission (and password) and that he can't disable location settings and things like that. The battery life is excellent, and easily lasts 2-3 days with minimal use. The signal is excellent with ASDA mobile (£5 pm). It's small, quite light weight and pocket sized, so fits into his jeans pocket. The price £180 is reasonable for the features of the phone. It looks great and appealing, and slightly unusual. It's as easy to use for him, who has great eyesight and small fingers, but I struggle to see the screen and type on the screen - due to me being old and having sausage fingers. I think it's a perfect first phone for a 10 year old, it suits my budget, has all the features he needs, and should see him through the next couple of years hopefully.

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.

Why I wanted a small second phone to take for an evening out, something I could use in an emergency for calls but also use for Whatsapp, with bluetooth to connect to my car. The good: This phone is tiny, barely bigger than my car key, so perfect size wise. Android auto works as well as my '"full size" Samsung ultra, no difference at all - so podcasts work, maps, voice control etc etc. You can use Whatsapp, google maps and basically any other app, including banking apps. Google pay works normally so there's nothing really you can't do on this phone. The bad The fingerprint scanner occasionally glitches, send it to sleep, wake up and it's fine. The screen is very small, so don't expect to read documents easily. Watching YouTube etc isn't the easiest, audio is fine but again the screen is so small you can't really see any detail. The ugly Due to the small screen size typing is an issue. By the time the keyboard is displayed you can barely see what you've typed. You can live with that, but the main issue is the keyboard is so small each key is tiny so you can easily hit any of about 6 letters with each press. It's a minor grumble, I mainly get around it by using voice typing, it saves a lot of hassle. Summary Perfect for what I wanted, small size to take out without a giant phone in my pockets, NFC, android auto etc so it's a winner, just don't expect to enjoy doomscrolling, it's so small it's hard to call it a pleasure to use.

I have to say I am pleasantly impressed of my new tiny phone. My main concern was keyboard accuracy but surprisingly it's not an issue no more than a regular-sized phone. It feels great ergonomically in my hands. I can read the screen clearly and it comes already with a screen protector (you get a 2nd one as a spare) and case installed to the phone. You do get a charger block unlike the popular namebrand phones, so there's that too if you need one. The sound quality was better than expected and the speakerphone is VERY LOUD and clear. You can make it even louder in the device settings but the default setting is loud enough imo. I am coming to this phone from a Samsung Z Fold5 which is a $2000 phone and I have to say I see no difference performance-wise between the two. This tiny phone is fast and I haven't experienced any lag or lock ups. I use NFC a lot and it works great if not even faster than my Z Fold5. My Samsung Buds Pro also work perfectly with it with great sound. Finger sensor also works great. I don't really have any cons but I do have a few peeves. The volume button doesn't increase/decrease with holding it down like other phones, so you have to keep pressing it to change it. As expected, the camera quality is not good, it's blurry and off-colored because it's sensitive to indoor lights. Images may have a yellow hue that have to be corrected with custom settings, so you can't just use the default camera settings with this phone. I had to adjust the white balance. You don't buy a $200 mini phone for camera-quality anyway but it's great for just capturing moments. My other peeve is that it runs completely on the Google ecosystem of apps and nothing works without them. I don't like Google so I normally uninstall all their apps when I get an Android, but you can't do that with this phone. First, you can't uninstall the Google apps, you can only disable them. But if you disable them, then some features on the phone won't work. For instance, I disabled Google Photos but then I couldn't view any of my pictures or set wallpapers, so I was forced to reinstall it. Just something to note for other people out there who rebuke Google products. I was able to replace something though, like I was able to disable Google Drive so I could use Proton Drive. The built-in IR remote app doesn't work with anything I've tried, so I think that app just doesn't work. But overall, this phone is a fun tiny powerful novelty phone that I got for no other reason than being the tiniest I could find without sacrificing the features of my Z Fold5. My boyfriend laughs at it. Never heard of Unihertz but you've won a new customer. As long as the quality keeps up through the years, I will definitely stick with this brand (Samsung lost me as a customer with their latest phone release). And this is coming from a diehard Samsung fan since the first Samsung smartphone.

Smartphone incroyable, il fait tout mais en mini donc on est vraiment pas tenté de scroller c'est top ! Seul petit bémol pour la batterie qui se décharge assez rapidement... Néanmoins le smartphone se recharge très vite donc ce n'est pas très dérangeant.

AGGIORNAMENTO DOPO UN ANNO DALL'ACQUISTO! Faccio i miei complimenti ad Unihertz e ad Amazon! E' uno smartphone assolutamente valido, performante e funzionale. In questo anno non si è mai e dico MAI impuntato o bloccato. Ha 256GB di Memoria Interna!! Tutto gira fluido e senza rallentamenti anche con tanti account e sincronizzazioni varie! Io ancora non riesco a capire perchè quando scrivi in rete "mini smartphone" questo Unihertz non esce e se esce esce molto in basso nelle pagine... Ci sono altri mini smartphone ma fanno veramente pena (provati...). Ma questo Unihertz Jelly Star è piccolo solo nelle dimensioni! CONFERMO LE MIE 5 STELLE per questo apparecchio. Anche la Fotocamera fa foto di degno rispetto e risoluzione. Le macro, ancora meglio! E' assurdo è assurdo che non venga conosciuto di più dalla gente! Io mi offrirei volentieri come endorsement di UNIHERTZ, fa sempre telefoni spettacolari. E Amazon fa un lavoro eccezionale come sempre! Se volete provare a fare una bella pazzia, provate questo telefono! Sembra di avere una piccola saponetta in mano, ma in realtà avete uno smartphone che non vi lascia. La batteria vi fa la giornata, ma se avete bisogno di dargli una "rinfrescata" in 10 minuti ve la carica la metà! Perchè è piccola e quindi si ricarica straveloce! Datemi retta, provatelo. Ah...una cosa: non è il mio secondo telefono o telefono di emergenza; è il mio primo telefono! Mamma mia!!! Smartphone stupendo uno dei miei preferiti in assoluto in tutta la mia vita. Veloce, affidabile, buonissima fotocamera, colori ottimi, display definito, si legge meglio qui il contrasto che su altri telefoni, simpatico con funzioni speciali, con musica e led (che io non uso nemmeno...) Il telefono è molto piccolo, ma c'è da dire una cosa, non sono piccole le icone i le impostazioni o altro, è solo più piccolo il dispaly, ma la grandezza delle icone è la stessa e il contrasto è formidabile. Questo è un telefono che non sarà molto in giro e la gente non lo capirà, ma io l'ho capito. Ovvio, la tastiera è piccolina e bisogna abituarsi, ma c'è sia lo swipe sulla tastiera (velocissimo) e il microfono che potete sempre dettare il messaggio e lui lo scrive! Altro piccolo contro, è la batteria che essendo tutto piccolo è piccola anche lei, ma anche il display è piccolo quindi vi può tranquillamente far finire la giornata senza problemi, ma c'è una buona notizia...che essendo piccola si ricarica in pochissimi minuti, se proprio avete avuto una giornata di stress tecnologico, allora basteranno anche solo 10 minuti e ve lo ricarica quasi tutto e a quel punto non riuscirete a scaricarlo fino al giorno dopo! Io ci faccio tutto, da pagamenti, agli account email, apre tutte le pagine senza problemi e con velocità. Per me è un telefono da avere e lo consiglio vivamente! E poi.... finalmente è possibile mettersi di nuovo un telefono in tasca senza darti noia, anzi non lo sentirai nemmeno. Io spesso vado nel panico perchè non lo trovo e invece è solo in fondo alla tasca! Super soddisfatto, consiglio l'acquisto! Mi raccomando però, siate consapevoli di quello che state acquistando! Super felice!

I’m very happy with this phone! At first, I was hesitant to use it as my primary device and always carried a full-sized smartphone with me when leaving the house. However, it has proven to be a great phone, and it’s now my main smartphone. Because of its small size, I’m much less likely to spend excessive time browsing the web, which was exactly what I hoped for when choosing this model. That said, it includes all the essential features I missed in basic phones. There’s no 5G, but in a city with good coverage, I don’t notice any difference. The camera isn’t great, but it works fine for documenting something or making video calls. The keyboard is very small, but since I have small hands, I got used to it quickly. Swiping to type without lifting my finger makes it much more convenient on such a tiny keyboard. All the drawbacks come from the challenge of fitting full smartphone functionality into such a compact device, but for me, these small inconveniences are worth it. Holding this phone feels great, it fits into all pockets—even those in women's clothing (if you know, you know!), and call quality is good on both ends. I also love that it comes with a loop for holding and has a dedicated attachment point on the case—sure, you can buy such accessories separately, but having one included is a nice touch. I really hope Unihertz continues making similar models, even if they remain a niche product.
