Customer Reviews
this phone has been nothing short of amazing. i bought it on a whim after reading all the positive reviews. my life has already changed for the better. this phone has all the abilities and necessities that i need to live daily life but without the temptation to scroll and live on my screen every second of my life. the size is adaptable - i use voice dictation for a lot of my texts when i don’t feel like typing on the keyboard. the quality of phone calls are good too and people i’ve talked to on speaker didn’t even notice i was using an android instead of an iphone. this phone is tiny and perfect. it’s a great conversation starter too.
i feel a general sense of anxiety has been lifted already and ive only had jelly 2 for four days. i used to be so overwhelmed and afraid of rejection when i would send a text to someone or just be unable to relax without checking for notifications all the time but for some reason it’s like the smallness of jelly 2’s screen has completely taken that fear away. i’m able to be more myself over text exchanges now. it’s like im not afraid to be perceived anymore as much - sounds crazy but it seems to be because of this phone…
mindfulness is returning to my life and im beginning to slow down and be present every day again. i never even realized just how addicted i was to dopamine scrolling until i got this. i was skeptical that the idea of a phone like this was just a novelty that would wear off but by the way things have been going i think im gonna make this a permanent change. i’ve already begun getting so many more tasks ive been putting off for years done. productivity and modern day social media and smartphones are natural enemies - but even though jelly 2 is technically a smart phone the size completely erases the probability of becoming addicted to your phone - at least for me
ps i have att and all i did was swap out my sim card in my iphone 12 into jelly 2 and it worked straight away
I bought the Unihertz Jelly 2 because I was so sick of all the huge phones that were a strain on the fingers to use for long periods of time and also never fit comfortably into half my pants' pockets.
I was prepared for a steep learning curve and sub-par performance considering the price, size and some YouTube reviews. But I have been using the Jelly 2 as my only phone for months now (only just realised there was a review tab on the site) and am SO in love with how comfortable it is to use.
I use my Jelly 2 for calls, to track my runs, message, read through some documents and e-books, play music, make contactless payments, watch Netflix (yes, I watch movies on this!) and even play Mobile Legends Bang Bang (won 16 of my last 20 watches with MVP for some).
Granted, switching to the Jelly 2 takes some getting used to but practice makes perfect. I now type with almost the same amount of accuracy as on a 6" phone.
The battery life is surprisingly good; I can last from 5.40am till 9pm having tracked a run, handled some messages and calls, about an hour of video, one MLBB game and some music.
I only wish it were more rugged; may have to upgrade to an Atom L one day! In the meantime, I love how I barely even feel my Jelly 2 on my arm strap when I run!
I really do -like- this phone. I tried/own a "lite phone II" which I find entirely too restrictive. This was an "upgrade" to my venerable Palm PVG100 (pictured in comparison below). There are always trade-offs going small. I think the Jelly 2 is an admirable step in the right direction please continue to improve this basic design.
The Good: Decent battery life, Android 11, All the basic phone functions you would expect from a smartphone. Headphone Jack. Decent performance. Standard screen dimensions, Decent sound quality, (speakerphone is meh). Excellent storage & ram specs, camera is quite functional, if not overly exciting. Covers all the US LTE bands/carriers, good reception.
The Bad: Note the size comparison to the PVG100, The Jelly 2 is just a "teensie" bit too small. The flat footprint needs to be the actual size or a mm or so larger square than a credit card, so that you can put a credit card sized card in the case. Note the 'wallet' case will not close with a card in the holder. The phone is a little fatter than I would like. I would prefer something between this and the PVG100 (which had abysmal battery life). The GPS is somewhat weak, hard to do without a decent antenna.
If android auto would ever get reasonably stable ...
This phone is perfect for someone who does not want to be tied to their phone, but want's to carry around a small but fully functional device for those occasions when you may need it. I avoid doing any work on my phone, but I do from time to time like to review what I want to look at when I get back to a desktop. Further I want full access to my contacts/address books no matter where I am at.
The wish list: ** Slightly larger rectangle (credit card+) ** , thinner (maybe ~12-14mm but keep the battery life). Camera's keep getting better but keep the costs down. USB-C docking with a desktop function (like DeX). I would love to be able to put on a standard linux build with "Plasma Mobile" and get rid of my laptop! (I also have a pinephone, Hey! it's the *wish* list).
My ideal device would allow me to carry it in my front shirt pocket with a card case (wallet or back) an ID, and a card or two
