I can't speak to the DB's of it but I run the projector in bed every night to watch a movie on my ceiling and I have never noticed it being hot when I shut it down for bed.
No Snapdragon Chipset, no 5G support but the only 3 things that are cool about this 8849 Tank phone is the battery life, projector & the physical programmable keys.
The dimensity 9200 curb stomps the snapdragon 8 gen 2 for power efficiency The snapdragon 8 gen 2 offers marginally better performance than the dimensity 9200, but it uses almost double the power to do it
completely different purpose, that phone is built for out doors and emergency, that thing has night vision with 4 infrared, 2 massive camping lights, and a full laser projector, this thing wasnt built for performance, its built to last
@@SWY1356 why not have the option for a high performance version? Yes it'll be more expensive, but people like myself (and there are a LOT of us) want a high performance phone with a high capacity battery and durable construction, yet literally NOBODY makes such a device, companies like Ulefone and Doogee do make high performance devices, but they're all Samsung clones that have to be charged multiple times a day, and will shatter into a million pieces if you drop it
Hi,could you please help me with one issue with the Tank 2.I have no means to use the double lights at the back. No controlls for it.Where can I download an app for it, or how is it possible to use them.I wrote to the factory service department but they are absolutelly useless and not willing to help out with this or any other question...
It should be set to turn on via one of the side buttons by default (a press and hold from memory) and you can access the lights further in the toolbox app
I still think that 15500mAh is still a massive amount, so it's still very much a tank phone. The new features like the second camp light and projector do take up a lot of space though!
Doogee V MAX still has a faster CPU and a bigger battery If they put a dimensity 9000 in the tank 2 and gave it an AMOLED display it would be almost perfect The Helio G99 is ancient these days, budget chip, maybe low mid range at best Why can't any of these companies put a high end CPU in these rugged big battery phones none of them have premium features like OIS, slow motion recording, 4K 60FPS recording, AMOLED displays, high end SOC's.etc I'd pay top dollar for one of these if it had top of the line hardware as well as features like night vision cameras, thermal cameras, projectors.etc Someone make such a phone and take my money!!!
@@SWY1356 it would, but I'd rather have a brick of a phone than have to charge it 3-4 times in any given 24h period My Doogee V MAX lasts literally 2 days before I have to charge it, whereas with the S22 I had before it, I had to charge that POS 5 times a day
Given that this weighs over a pound, any chance they included a slot on the corner for a wrist strap? I've looked at a bunch of pics and I'm thinking no, but figured I'd ask
Update: They released a patch that fixed all of these things. Been my daily driver ever since. So I got one of these. LOVE IT. BUUUUUUUUUUT.... there are some real problems. The Quickstep app constantly locks up which more or less locks up your UI and launcher. So you cannot navigate around the phone. The projector is fantastic BUT.... it does not auto rotate to landscape out of the projector. Meaning you have to go get a screen orientation app to use it AND.. for some stupid reason you cannot turn off the main phone display while projector is on. For me the quickstep problem is a deal breaker. It makes the phone almost useless and there is no info on how to fix it on the web that I can find. The rest of it is just silly stuff but ya.. the quickstep issues....
Screen off when projector in use and rotation is a must, my galaxy beam 1 and 2 and also my blackview Max 1 had that.. super important for what I want to do.. hope they can sort this.. waiting on delivery🙏
Does the projector work for Netflix? I know Netflix blocks screen sharing and I can't use it with some projectors. So I was wondering if it works with the Tank 2. Thanks!

Hiya. Great vid thanks.. love the phone and the projector is just a great integrated option... strongly looking at getting something like this in future. Any chance you're running a competition for someone to win this phone?
That's funny 😂😂😂😂 To this day most people actually using 4g lte speeds the majority of the day and don't even realize it😳😳😳 And you can always buy a 1tb card 😂😂😂😂
sry man i dont normally post anything negitive, but i didnt get to see the phone like at all... ................ going to find another video to watch so i can actaully see what its about
It’s just a mismatch in the frame rates (I was filming in PAL but I didn’t realise that it was set to NTSC until too late). I have a far better sample in my latest short. It looks quite good in real life
@@DavisFangTech ok, but You should check the video once. Those who think that they should buy on the basis of the projector, who will buy it if they see this?
You know there is a problem with this phone since Im watching the third video and none of them show the projector on. Not once. This phone is about the projector. Where is the video about it? 17 minutes of nothing.
Nice to see Microvision PicoP projector back in the mainstream
The only phone I fell in love with in the last, I don't know, 7 years?
After reading the headline...I still can't believe what this phone can do.
If it was made by Samsung or Apple...£3000-4000,
How loud is the speaker? Louder than 109db? How hot does it get when the projector is running for a long period of time?
I can't speak to the DB's of it but I run the projector in bed every night to watch a movie on my ceiling and I have never noticed it being hot when I shut it down for bed.
@@blainetrain2299can you turn off the screen while playing it with the projector? thanks...
@@yeroyeloroyal7024 yes!! 😊 They did recently release an update that fixed all my issues. It works great now

Sir. Do you think the compromise in capacity is a take away after all that what makes the tank a tank

Can you use this with any carrier thank you
Does it work in America networks
Doogee V MAX still has a faster CPU and a bigger battery

Tank 3 : 4nm 5G cpu ,
@@tahirahmed33 probably a low end 4nm chip that is outperformed by a mid range 12nm chip from 2y ago
Do you know if the phone supports headset free fm radio?
Can we watch Netflix and other streaming services on the projector or only video files? Can play with the projector and a controller?
Yes, you can play anything you like through the projector
Given that this weighs over a pound, any chance they included a slot on the corner for a wrist strap? I've looked at a bunch of pics and I'm thinking no, but figured I'd ask
bottom if im not mistaken
Attach the strap to a stick and you have a club now
With my one I downloaded a clip of Princess Leia saying, "Help me Obi Wan your my only hope" and I project that always gets a laugh.
Omg that would be hilarious! I hear that the 120hz update is finally coming out later this month too!

Thanks for sharing your experience. I’ve heard that there is an update coming soon, so hopefully that will alleviate some of your issues
i use nova launcher on all my unihertz devices, works like a charm

@@Lectrosoul They did fix it. Screen off works well. Still no auto rotate though just auto landscape.
Great to know.. do you know how many Android updates the tank 2 is likely to receive? Are unihertz good for updates?
Is it safe to order it from aliexpress?
Yeah, it’s one of their official stores
@@DavisFangTech ok thanks because I wasn’t sure.👍
I ordered mine from there ( to Canada ) and it went just fine.
Does the projector work for Netflix? I know Netflix blocks screen sharing and I can't use it with some projectors. So I was wondering if it works with the Tank 2. Thanks!
yep
It's only sold at US$352 in Hong Kong now. Why?

Exactly, the more space the better✊🏿👑🐊
Can you do a screen mirroring with this tank 2 phone?
Yes
Can I use on cricket carrier
nobody:
absolutely no one ever:
unihertz: haha yes indestructible phone go brrr
is this ali express is safe for credit card ?
Yeah, the Ali express link is official and is safe. You can buy it from the 8849/Unihertz website too
@@DavisFangTechplease Davis I so much love this phone but I don't have cash to buy one I will really appreciate if I get one from you 😢
I'm your top fans ..I like your video.
Will this work with uk sim card
Yep
How does the tank 2 compare to the doogee v max thanks
Does the tank 3 support a projector like the tank 2??
Unfortunately not 😭
Anyone know if this phone has DP-ALT over USB-C?
Cant wait to get mine
great videos from you, many greetings from Germany!
Thanks for your support!
Does it actually work on the Telstra network or is it a Optus better unit
I’ve only tested it with Optus, but you can check to see if the bands match up with Telstra’s better
@DavisFangTech if the iiif150 b2 ultra doesn't work out I will give the tank 2 a go cheers for the reply good to see Aussies testing these phones 😀
Wow, the price is twice as much as the original Tank!
Yes, $599.00 really is way too much for a phone like this
@@palaemonsangarius20 339 for 6.18 in express
Just quoting the RRP price for us Australians, but there are sure to be done deals during the preorder period
@@DavisFangTech I'd pay $2000+ for one of those with a snapdragon 8 gen 2 or dimensity 9200, an AMOLED display, and a camera with OIS and 4K 60FPS recording

And you lose a lot more battery 👎🏾
On the first tank, when recording video, it sounded like the person was talking into a cup... Terrible microphone! Have they improved that?

How can I get the phone to Barbados
I need to buy this phone how can I do so .?
.
I bought Tank 2 last October 2024 and it malfunction after 6 months. It stuck on 8849 logo and would not open any apps.
Have you tried contacting support?
Wireless charging yes or not
Unfortunately no
Can this phone be degoogled?
Now time for tank 2 rock
Thanks
Hello, I have a question, does the device contain Arabic as a system language or not? Is it possible to check the settings menu and tell me?
Yes it does. Just verified on mine.
Unihertz tank 2 Thank you 👍😊❤
To inform you. There is blackview max 1 also has a projector 😊
thanks for letting me know, I'd never heard of that phone before ahaha
@@DavisFangTech you are welcome my friend
Oled?
Love this phone for me only the camera for night is not so good
You have my subscription, simply because you can see a PS Vita in the background.
Love my Vitas!
@@DavisFangTech me too. :D
the way u talk it is a lezendari..sound.. which we hard our childhood..memory.. I must say..this is a nostalji..for me.. 🇧🇩🇧🇩
This phone is really good but the projector is garbage ! 😅
This phone would be the best if it had the ability to charge other phones like the s22 Samsung..
I just ask, is it good for some game lika Cod mobile? Or like FN? I just wann know if the processor is good enough
it probably is good enough for that, gaming performance hasn't been an issue so far, but just note that it isn't the fastest phone in the world
Its a mistake its $389 😂
The world is not the USA, he quoted Australian dollars
Best phone for the hikers and trekkers 🥾🗻
Yes, very true!
great video👍
Thank you 👍
it is great🐂🐂🐂👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥
It sure is!
Nhìn mặt, giống người ViệtNam quá vậy bạn?
Projector look's worthless 😲
I have the phone. IT dosn t look like in this video at all
I wanted this as a multi tool power bank. :( Hopefully it's just apple being awful per usual.
it will probably charge most devices, it's just the iPhone being weird
Work with AT&T
Bro I saw another review and price is $360 🤔
The price appears to have been updated on the AliExpress website!
Prices fluctuate due to buyers location and the current strength of the dollar to the pound for example
unfortunately it is not a 5g phone.
That projector though
256 storage instead of 1tb? No 5g? Would buy this phone in a second if both are on the next version Tank3. Right now I'll pass.
That's funny 😂😂😂😂
To this day most people actually using 4g lte speeds the majority of the day and don't even realize it😳😳😳
And you can always buy a 1tb card 😂😂😂😂
