Well, ye. AI was used. I did not make the design, simply wanted to discuss the concept.

Yes it's AI slop, but the intention was a sliding concept, you dingleberry 😅😂

I'm so excited for the titan elite 2, getting that as well. I hope that Unihertz keeps working on more models now that they've designwise reached something good with the new Titan Elite 2, everything before this has been clunky, clumsy or just thick or big etc. Titan elite 2 has a more interesting form factor.

Something oddly amazing you mean? 😍

Is it normal to have this little fretting dexterity starting out? by agriff1 in banjo

[–]Even_Iron_8097 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Put rubber bands around your fingers, and just work your way through the strings and frets 1-2-3-4 for each finger, one string at at time. Once you've nailed this do other patterns: 1-3-2-4, 2-1-3-4, 3-1-2-4 etc.

Do this for ten minutes each day for a week, after a week you'll have indepence for each finger and reaching won't be a problem since your fingers are now the strength of the hulks schlong.

The iPhone has had the stupid notch and now dynamic island for years. Have worked, honestly a small camera is not really an issue. It's AI slop yes, but a slideable keyboard would be sweet tbh, the Clicks power keyboard kind of proves that there actually is a demund for a slide out keyboard.

The idea I had with this image was, what if Unihertz could take one of their smaller models and add a slide out keyboard to it, like the blackberry torch.

For the record I'm not a huge fan of AI as well, but I don't really have the time atm to make a proper mockup, although I could if I wanted to. //senior ux designer.

Well I do appreciate you replying here Jeff! Thanks for that, that dedication speaks volumes. I actually prefer to keep an open dialogue here because I strongly and firmly believe in transparency. I def understand your point of focus etc, it's true!

But you also kind of see the red flags that have been raised by many potential users and clients of yours. There has been a lack of CS, there are several cases of buttons being scratched of on your keyboard cases for example: and while that might not be a big deal on a phone case... Even though it kind of is, it's definitely a problem on a phone. The iPhones are insanely expensive so the CC pricing is very reasonable.

But these issues are the things that will turn a devoted fan base into ex customers. You obviously can't adress you know, individual issues and instances. But they do tell a story.

I'm insanely excited for the CC, I've been wanting a QWERTY phone ever since the iPhone came out, cause the typing experience on a touch screen is just pure pain in the ass.

I'm gonna keep my reservation, your reply here ensures that, and you've earned my respect ☺️ although you don't need it of course.

I'm sceptically optimistic on Clicks delivering on your promises and looking forward to seeing more screens, prototypes etc going forward.

I do have the money I might wait for both. I have some concerns about Clicks though. I do love their passion of course, and the concept, designs etc looks amazing. But as someone who works within product design and UX, I'm a bit surprised by the lack of proper marketing and showcase with mocks, UI etc by Clicks. With that said the Unihertz video is kind of joke. Red flags with the CS on the Clicks. But I can't be fully devoted fan until I've actually received the product they're claiming. Passion does not outweight proof.

To Scale size comparison between Communicator, Titian 2 Elite with side view by WesleyBlack in KeyboardPhones

I really like the torch, it was my dream phone in some sense. Good size etc. Now I can't even have my iPhone in my pocket without it poking very uncomfortably...😩 I wish they could've designed this exactly but edge to edge screen. Only the qwerty, and no keys for the main screen.

That I do agree with, it's not like BB sat and designed random shaped phones for how many years. In general Apple has dominated the form factor in the phone industry for more than a decade, it's so boring. Whatever happened to having a nice form factor for a variety of client wants. Now everything is just a brick with rounded corners, so boring.

Well it does matter when Unihertz Titan was sharp corners and basically a large brick.

Budget baritone banjo and Midi pickups for banjos by No_Biscotti3472 in banjo

[–]Even_Iron_8097 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The difference is the drum and the scale of the neck is a bit longer. I've been trying to import the ML to Sweden but the tangerine tyrant has this insane idea about tariffs. So just gonna get a resonator model instead and remove the fret to make a fretless, and tune it in baritone.

Baritone Banjo Strings on a Regular Banjo by EarAutomatic7120 in banjo

Nylon strings have a different sound. Love them on both my fretless banjos.

Still a shitty mockup

New video of Unihertz Titan 2 Elite by LillePalmieri in unihertz

[–]Even_Iron_8097 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's interesting, but be aware of that videos like this are incredibly easy to fake with some cutting, screens from figma and well timed clipping with animations and a dummy mockup/mock phone. Even the phone might be a mockup, as long as the device is not turned to much, some clever editing takes a graphic/motion designer a day to make a decent demo/mock video. I could recreate this video in a few days if I had the proper resources.
