The Unihertz Titan 2 brings back the QWERTY keyboard, pairs it with a square 4.5" display

GSM Arena25-06-2025
Do you miss the BlackBerry Passport? Well, Unihertz is working on resurrecting the form factor with the Titan series. The latest is the Unihertz Titan 2, which is up on Kickstarter for a crowdfunding campaign. Well, it's more of a pre-order – the $100,000 goal was unrealistically low and it has already been surpassed over 8 times, anyway.
The Titan 2 has a square 4.5' display with 1,440 x 1,440px resolution – just like the Passport. There's actually a second display on the back too, a 2' 410 x 50px panel, although the utility of that is questionable beyond using it for main camera selfies.
The star of the show is the 3-row QWERTY keyboard with a function row above that. It's touch sensitive, so you can use it to scroll and to move the text cursor (including selecting text).
The keyboard is backlit and supports multiple languages. You can also assign apps to be launched when long-pressing certain keys for instant access.
The company worked with carriers around the world to make sure the Unihertz Titan 2 is supported – it's in the process of getting approval from AT&T, which will allow the phone to work on the AT&T and Cricket networks. Do note that the US version is separate with support for additional bands. Supported carriers
This is a dual-SIM phone, by the way. It also has Wi-Fi 6 (ax), Bluetooth 5.4 and NFC connectivity, plus an IR blaster and an FM radio receiver (but no 3.5mm headphone jack).
The new model launches with Android 15 and claims massive performance improvements over the original Titan, up 240% overall, according to Unihertz. The Dimensity 7300 chipset has a faster CPU (+202%) and the GPU (+341%). The chipset is paired with 12GB of RAM and 512GB storage.
The Titan 2 is powered by a 5,050mAh battery with 33W charging. A full charge can be achieved in an hour and a half. All this while making the phone thinner (10.8mm) and lighter (235g) than its predecessor.
The phone has a 50MP main camera on the back alongside an 8MP 3.4x telephoto module. The front camera has a 32MP sensor.
The two early bird price tiers are sold out, but you can still grab an Unihertz Titan 2 with a 33% discount – that is $270 (MSRP is $400). The Kickstarter campaign has a few combos and bundles too. Shipping is expected to start in October 2025. Unihertz Titan 2 specs
Here's the promo video for the Unihertz Titan 2 – if you're jealous of that leather cellphone holster, soon you will be able to get one too. It's an add-on that will be available in the post-campaign survey period.

This underrated Google app just got its Material 3 Expressive makeover

Google has been busy, busy, busy giving its Android apps Material 3 Expressive makeovers. I have to say that, for the most part, these makeovers have been well changes made to the UIs of these apps have made them easier to use, more useful, and in many cases, the Dynamic Color feature brings in the main color theme from your phone's wallpaper improving the look of the app. The Google Contacts app is now getting its makeover. The update is rolling out now via the Google Play Store. Material 3 Expressive makeover of the Google Contacts app. | Image credit-PhoneArena The new look Contacts app has a bottom bar that is shorter, although the three tabs, Contacts, Highlights, and Organize, remain the same. Pressing on any of the three tabs reveals a major UI improvement as each name is now in an easier to see rounded container, making it easier to see exactly which name you are clicking on. Previously, there was no clear-cut separation between the names of the contacts. Each individual contact also gets a card with a giant avatar and the name of the contact underneath. Directly below the contact's name are four options: The big change to this card with the makeover is that the names of these four actions are now placed inside a pill-shaped field. Previously, the four actions were placed inside of a simple circle. The new look has been found on version 4.6.1.x of the Google Contacts app. To see which version of the app is running on your Android phone, tap on Settings > Apps > See all xxx apps . Scroll down to Contacts and tap on it to visit the Google Contacts App info page. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to see the version of the app installed on your device. My Pixel 6 Pro running Android 16 QPR1 beta 3.1 does have the refreshed version of the Contacts app. The Google Contact card is also given a little makeover. | Image credit-PhoneArena The Material 3 Expressive refresh for Google Contacts might not be the most jarring. Nor is the Contacts app the most heavily used app on your handset. Still, with all of this in mind, Google still worked hard on this makeover; it is enough of an improvement to make the Contacts app more useful and easier for users to employ.

Oppo Find X9 Ultra could have the same main camera sensor as the Galaxy S26 Ultra

Vlad, 16 August 2025 The upcoming Oppo Find X9 Ultra has already been rumored to sport a new 200 MP main camera, and today prolific Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station has shed light on which sensor it will use. It turns out it's the one that Sony is developing - with 200 MP resolution and a 1/1.1" type size. That's not quite 1-inch type, but pretty close. Oppo Find X8 Ultra Intriguingly, Samsung has been rumored to have chosen this exact sensor to use in the Galaxy S26 Ultra's main camera. If all of these rumors pan out, we'll have an interesting situation next year when both the Galaxy S26 Ultra and the Find X9 Ultra arrive, as they will compete against each other while using the same main camera sensor. Well, in theory at least - if the Find X9 Ultra isn't officially sold outside of China (and that's definitely not outside the realm of possibility), then given Samsung's minuscule market share in China, the two won't really compete head-to-head anywhere. Anyway, the Find X9 Ultra will launch after the Chinese New Year (which falls on February 17). DCS says it might arrive a little bit sooner than its predecessor, which was unveiled on April 10, so if we were to bet we'd go with an unveiling sometime in March. Source (in Chinese)
