Comes with a few other really interesting features you don’t see on any other phone (like a goddamn laser projector?), though i think the processor is a little underpowered.
That’s kind of insane. From the name I think it’s safe to assume they’re angling for some military contracts.
From this comparison, I would guess they chose the G99 to cut costs, as the 1300 was announced two months earlier and beats or matches the G99 in every category, including battery life (which is the only thing it seems to be good at).
What do you mean by track? Unihertz is a small Chinese manufacturer - it makes no guarantees around support and barely delivers any updates to its devices, as is the norm within much of the non-Google, non-Samsung Android market. It’s really only within the last couple of years that the industry has actually made a bit of progress in this area.
This is a norm to be avoided. A phone without updates (at least security updates) should be avoided at all costs considering the potential consequences.
I was being a dick and asking a rhetorical question there, because I thought it would be pretty obvious that the support for a small Chinese manufacturer would be abysmal.
Steve Jobs did too, they still needed a plastic window for some antennae on the OG iPhone, then went to full plastic. It has become worse now, the back isn’t just for wireless charging. It is also for NFC, UWB, and often cellular/gps/wifi/bluetooth may share antenna connections through the back.
Right there with you though. NFC could probably be packed in a band at the top of a phone. UWB seems of dubious value thus far.
I did a search on GSM Arena and if you lower the battery capacity to 5000 then there’s a single result. If you change some of the other spec requirements there’s some other stuff available but nothing that matches what you want one-to-one.
“Glass is glass, and glass breaks” I want a metal back phone. I don’t care about wireless charging.
Can anyone suggest me an Android that has all these?
I may have found a phone for you. It’s called the unihertz tank 2

How’s unihertz track record with providing updates? This is an important factor to avoid artificial obsolescence.

Track record.

I went with the lenovo/motorola thinkphone. Kind of an oddball choice, but it has a kevlar back instead of glass, and has most of your points.
The battery is ‘only’ 5000mah, but i get multiple days of use per charge.
There were some pretty good sales on it because it didn’t sell as well as they had hoped.
