Unihertz, a brand known for making rugged smartphones, recently unveiled its latest addition, the TANK. The standout feature of this smartphone is its incredible battery life, with an average usage of up to one week on a single charge, making it one of the most enduring smartphones on the market.
The Rise of Endurance Smartphones
Since 2017, smartphone manufacturers have seriously focused on improving battery life, and this is excellent news for consumers. It was not that long ago when Apple bragged about the slimness of their iPhone 6, which resulted in users having to recharge their devices at least once a day, if not more, after a short period of use. Over time, manufacturers realized that slimness was not as important to users as extended battery life.
Today, high-end smartphones from Samsung, Apple, and other brands can last up to two days with little difficulty. This optimization not only provides practical benefits but also prolongs the life of the battery, meeting consumer demands for devices that last longer.
Unihertz Latest Addition: The TANK
At the recent Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona, Unihertz showcased its latest smartphone, the TANK. With a battery capacity of 22,000 mAh, this smartphone can last up to a week on a single charge, making it the perfect choice for adventurers who need a device that won’t let them down. The TANK is covered with thick aluminum and rubber corners to cushion against shocks and impacts, and its large size can fit in a big pocket.
The TANK has a 6.8-inch Full HD LCD display with a resolution of 1080p, and its front-facing camera is in a punch-hole design. The smartphone runs on the MediaTek MT6789 processor, which is not as powerful as some of its competitors, but its focus is not on gaming, but on providing long-lasting battery life.
The TANK has a 108-megapixel rear camera, a 32-megapixel front camera, and a 20-megapixel night vision sensor. It comes with a 66W charger and has dual-SIM 4G connectivity, NFC, GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, and Galileo. The TANK also has a unique programmable button and supports both facial recognition and fingerprint sensors.
The TANK also comes with a unique software application called Toolbox, designed for adventurers. The app includes survival-focused features like a heart rate monitor, a pedometer, a magnifying glass, a pressure sensor, and a speedometer.
The TANK’s Standout Feature: An Ultra-Powerful Flashlight
The most remarkable feature of the TANK is its ultra-powerful rear flashlight, which is brighter than those on any other smartphone on the market. When users turn on the flashlight, a warning message appears, indicating that the light could seriously damage the eyes. Although it’s hard to show the results in photos, users are advised not to stare at the light for too long. The flashlight can also be set to blink in SOS mode.
Overall, the TANK from Unihertz is a great option for adventurers and people who need a rugged, long-lasting smartphone. Although it may not be the most powerful smartphone on the market, its battery life is unbeatable.
