Photo Announcement. Unihertz Golden Eye - a smartphone with a golden eye

Unigers are cool. I don’t know at all what they have with the quality of smartphones. But the guys' fantasy works for five plus. They came up with another boring smartphone. Meet Unihertz Golden Eye. Or, as it is also called, Unihertz TickTock-S Golden Eye. Just don't get confused, please. Because there is also a smartphone that is simply Unihertz TickTock-S. Yes, he is a close relative of our Golden Eye. But with one significant difference.

Unihertz Golden Eye

The original Unihertz TickTock-S was announced as recently as early February. Smartphone armoredto the middle class with support for 5G networks and with an additional round screen that is so snugly located between the cameras.


Unihertz TickTock-S

Golden Eye, as far as I can see, differs from TickTock-S in only one way. The round screen was removed, and an equally round flashlight was put in its place. Big and bright. How bright? Hard to tell. Goncharenko in his video review says that the flashlight is comparable in brightness to an ordinary household five-watt light bulb. Although, like, five watts is not so much, is it? I have standard home lighting.e - three lamps of 20 watts. But even from this review, we can definitely say that the flashlight is much more powerful than a standard smartphone flash.

Let's move on to the characteristics.

Iron stuffing is standard. The well-known MediaTek Dimensity 700 chipset (300-350 thousand points in AnTuTu).

A lot of memory. 8 GB of operational and as much as 256 GB of permanent. However, there is no support for memory cards.

The screen is standard. Diagonal 6.53" (105 cm²). Resolution is good, 1080x2340 (395 ppi). No increased refresh rate.

The battery capacity is not bad, but nothing more - 5200 mAh. (On my ownIn fact, I would really like to know more precisely about the voracity of a flashlight, but I don’t see such information yet). Charging is moderately fast - 30 W.

Cameras. 32 MP front and 64+2 MP rear. If the sensor is the same as the ancestor, then this is a rather ancient Samsung ISOCELL GW1.

Other. There is an NFC module, Type-C, dual-band Wi-Fi, a side fingerprint scanner. Protection against water and dust is standard - class IP68. Those. the smartphone can be safely (but carefully) bathed. Nothing is said about compliance with the MIL-STD-810 standard.

Start of sales (as well as the official announcement) ontagged March 20th. The smartphone page has already appeared on AliExpress. According to the ad banner, the early birdies who manage to snatch the biggest coupon will be able to buy the Unihertz Golden Eye for only $269.99 (₽21500).
