www.unihertz.com
Unihertz Tank is the cutting-edge IP68 rated rugged smartphone with a 22000mAh largest battery that can withstand harsh environments while still retaining the incredible powerful features. Featuring a 6.81" display screen, 66W fast charging, 108MP AI triple cameras, night version 4K video recording, 1200 lumens brightest flashlight and integrated toolkits, Unihertz Tank is the best outdoor mobile device you need to explore the fearless wild and capture every moment in stunning detail. Order now!

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?

    Yeah, I think I’ll wait for a newer version. The same place also makes a very tiny Android 13 phone that weighs around 4 oz. That would also be great for backcountry on the theory that you leave it turned off unless you need it. I’ve been looking at the Moto Defy satellite tranceiver (like an Inreach but with no screen, you control it from a phone) and unfortunately it has what sounds like an annoying proprietary app. I think the feature will make it into more phones soon though.

      Yeah satellite sos is such an underrated feature. It seems like nothing until you need it. I almost had to use it yesterday when I was mountain biking up around the CO/WY border miles away from anything and no cell service. I crashed and the first thought as I hit the ground was “if I break anything I’m fucked out here” until I remembered I have the satellite SOS. Luckily I was alright, just tweaked my wrist and scraped up my arm pretty good. Was able to finish the ride back to the car.

      But I would have absolutely been fucked without it if something happened.
