Interesting company, I considered getting their "tank" when I needed a new phone a few months ago, although I decided to go with doogee instead. As the name implies it's rather the opposite of this.

Man I wish I knew about this a few weeks ago, I just replaced my pixel 5 that broke with a cheap OnePlus Nord N30 and let me tell you, I fucking hate this phone lol. If I could justify spending more money right now I'd replace it with this.
Sell it!
There are a lot of 3" Chinese Android phones, but I've never seen one actually having normal specs (well, besides the display perhaps, I suspect its size isn't the only issue).
Hopefully everything goes fine!
Yeah, I want a proper mini flagship.
Yeah, I want a proper mini flagship eventually.
There's a pretty neat gaming case available for this as well https://lemux.minnix.dev/post/203271
Fuck, man. That looks amazing and it kind of turns the Jelly Star into what I always wanted; a fully functional phone with controller hardware, small enough to easily pocket the entire thing. I almost regret passing on this phone now.
I loved this phone! I had a jelly 2. It didn't work with my train ticket app, so I had to switch to something bigger. Great conversation piece too.
I bought one a couple of months ago. I think it's fantastic both for the size and the price. It's a bit too small of a screen for my aging eyes, but otherwise it works great. I'm keeping it to or when I travel or other good use. Edit: the cameras are... OK. Nothing great, but serviceable. Gcam helps, Google for versions. Also, yes, you can root it. Also GSI flash works, but you lose functions. The battery charges super fast, given it's size. It accepts like 10w charging current.
What's the camera like? I take a ton of photos and really need good quality.
I can't give personal opinions yet, but reviews seem to say that it's "fine", which for a phone of this size, I think that's a success. Although "fine" might not be the "good" that you are looking for.
It's 48 MP, which is great for zooming but I don't think it has any other perk. Low light pics seem to be pretty meh. It's also just one camera. Absolutely fine for me, I know that. But definitely will be worse than the Pixels and the iPhones.
The bands wouldn’t work for me. I’d be outside coverage most of the time. The price is more than an A15 5G… Seems like old tech at a premium price.

i kinda wish the screen was a bit wider, 16:9 doesnt really work in this size imo.
Then use it on landscape mode 😉➖
