Unihertz, known for its slab telephone alternatives, has unveiled an improvement of its instrumentality pinch a beingness keyboard: The Titan 2 Elite. It’s smaller and sleeker than the (aptly named) Titan that precedes it, comes successful the orangish colour that’s each the rage correct now, and looks a heck of a batch for illustration a Blackberry.

Unihertz teased the Elite successful January; from the teaser it looked to beryllium a smaller Titan 2 pinch rounded edges. Having seen it successful personification astatine MWC, I tin corroborate that’s precisely what it is. The keys are somewhat smaller than the Titan 2’s, and there’s nary secondary surface connected the backmost of the caller device. Like its predecessor, you tin usage the keyboard arsenic a trackpad, arsenic good arsenic programme civilization shortcuts for the beingness keys. The Elite comes pinch a 4.05 OLED compared to the 4.5-inch LCD connected the Titan.

The Titan 2 Elite feels ray successful the manus and eminently pocketable. There’s a programable cardinal connected the broadside arsenic good arsenic a beingness SIM slot. Sadly, location is nary headphone jack, which was disappointing aft I mistook the IR power for 1 astatine first glance. Can’t person it all, I guess, though I for 1 americium gladsome that the Blackberry shape facet is enjoying a spot of a revival.

Unihertz doesn’t person a value for the Titan 2 Elite, but says it will beryllium coming to Kickstarter this March.
