- TEAM SGG PATREON / somegadgetguy Tank 3 Pro Review! This is the biggest phone I've ever reviewed. It's the heaviest phone I've ever used. It's got almost EVERY feature we've ever put on a phone. It's got a ridiculous battery and a projector.
What do we DO with this thing?

"This hurt my foot"
Finally the rugged phone I've been asking for, doubles as a blunt weapon for post apocalyptic scenarios. A true every situation device
I forgot my Tank 3 Pro phone on top of my car, and while I was driving, it fell off. My car is 2 meters high, and I was going at about 110 km/h. I saw something spinning very fast behind my car but didn't realize it was my phone until I stopped to check. Indeed, it was my Tank 3 Pro.
Was it damaged? Yes, it had a few scratches and the projector glass was broken, but the phone was still working perfectly. Please don't try this yourself; it was super dangerous. It could have ended badly if it had hit another car. Don't leave your belongings, especially your phone, on top of your car. I just wanted to share this to demonstrate how durable this phone is. It’s literally as tough as a rock.
This is the closest nuclear smartphone I always wanted
it's missing a diesel emergency generator and i'd love if it could charge my tesla, other than that it's a pretty sweet little phone.
for real now, that was a great review!
The "charge someone elses phone" feature doesnt work, i tried it
I have Tank 3 Pro too. And it is hands down an absolute buy recommendation. The coolest phone that i have ever had. So jam packed with cool and mostly unique features. Great informative review.
Can you hotspot from it?
@@NoMoreLiesOrDeception Yes.
Nice, just seen it going for £545, that's not super expensive at all
@@NoMoreLiesOrDeception Yeah that is what i payed with discounts. Most definitely worth it.
Yes @@NoMoreLiesOrDeception
Swiss army Claymore. "Go big or go eff yourself" in the most outlandish way.
Well put Simon, well put!
This is exactly why you're one of my favorite reviewers. Good job.👍
that battery is enough to last a week of outdoor camping
The projector looks a lot better on this vs my tank 2
Project 8849, seriously though, I absolutely love this thing even though I'll never own it as I have 0 real need for it. So awesome though, more of these kinds of crazy gadgets please!
Also a preppers dream😂
Great a new take on the brick & it is for the prepared , what do you do about screen protection
Tripods and selfie sticks will be challenging
Wait a minute...that hazard mode would be really helpful if you are in danger and someone is trying to threaten you. If you play that alarm while being pursued or someone is breaking in, it could scare the threat away or make them hesitate.
You can directly use this mobile phone as a weapon to defend yourself.
Yeah and then go to jail for using police lights haha
Watch them scatter like roaches.
Your balanced approach to using words and understanding the potential use of gadgets reminds me of where MKBHD used to be. Gosh you deserve a huger (more biggish?) audience. It really hits home for me. No this gadget is not for me, but I dig that there are people out there who need this and can get it. I agree with your attitude towards this device.
Is just missing a threaded hole to connect a handle, and you have a hammer, a post apocalyptic elektro hammer!
HA! No joke. There's certainly room for one...
Juan, only phone nerds like us know the importance of 'clicky buttons'.
I work in a heavy industrial/manufacturing environment, I'd rock this as a daily driver if I could get my hands on it a little more easily.
AliExpress have them, am tempted 😂
Amazon's got em
Great video bro
This is a game changer! For someone who wants to travel and go to the mountains and stuff. This is amazing!
Edit: the camera is really good btw! Not the video tho.
Video? Why
@@the_famous_reply_guy oh no sorry i meant the video quality of the camera. The photos are good
I still sport a 2017 Samsung active s7 Active rugged phone. It's a nice rugged phone for outdoor use. That being said, I had to get it out to compare the absurd specs against this behemoth.
11:24 THANK YOU, FINALLY SOMEONE WHO ACKNOWLEDGE'S THOSE PHONE'S TO BE THE BEST, AND I STILL AM SALTY THAT THEY CANCELLED THAT LINEUP, JUST IMAGINE A RUGGED ACTIVE VERSION OF THE S24 ULTRA! ❤❤❤
wow it has a built in projector. is it waterproof with those venting holes on the side ? does it has inductive charging and headsetfree fm radio ? how does the microphone sound when making phonecalls in the 4G net ?
How many hours can i Play vedio with projector?
I got the tank 3, regular version. It's a beast. 666 grams of phone. Aaaand I use it as my regular phone. I game. I game a lot. At any opportunity. And I was tired of running out of battery. My last phone I had to charge it at least one time in the middle of the day or at least late afternoon. Well, no more of that with this beast. It's clunky. It's heavy. I had to spend two weeks getting used to the weight. But no more charging in the middle of the day. 20%? Great, still have battery to play for 4 or 5 more hours!
A smartphone I can also use a weapon
That projector plug for the deep dive of the One Plus open 😂😂😂
So is the USBC down there fully waterproof like the NOKIA XR20? cos just because that lil plastic is there doesnt mean water is not gonna go in underwater.
Thanks for reviewing this! Is their new Unihertz Jelly Star on your radar?
I have no need at all for such a phone but I really want one.
if they put a better screen & camera flagship killer sensors with OIS & 5x zoom telephoto (& gcam supports with official or user uploaded Sites for config XML) which altogether may won't cost more than 50-60$, they could sell it for 150$ more. of course a better speaker setup is appreciated too
Nice review 👌🏻👌🏻
Do you know why others have written on the back 8849 and others Unihertz???
There are two versions of it? Tank 3 (without projector) and tank 3 pro (with projector) ?
Yes
I have my tank over a year, I factory reset it and now I'm locked out... It says to contact the seller. So I've contacted them and they are not getting back to me... Its been 3 days without a phone and no word from them... Really not trusting the customer service.
Would this make a good gaming phone mainly Roblox games where u can use auto clicker afk also?
For those of us who missed the projector phone when Samsung stopped making it, and wished it had enough battery to run that projector for a useful amount of time.
That would be an awesome thing to bring to a camp-out on the beach. Stream Netflix on a blanket at night while having a few beers.
I have the Tank 1. Great phone, very reliable. Never had an issue with the software. It just works. Physically very durable (fell on hard floor many times, zero scratches or anything). I feel a strong urge to get the Tank 3 but why, when my Tank 1 works just fine?
great video 👍
I need to know where you got that Pixel case please ❤
Do you ever sell your reviewed phones? I've been waiting for the official launch of this phone. Can't wait to get one.
It's on Amazon and aliexpress btw
So it hertz when you drop a tank on your foot... Seems like it might be good if you go camping.
maybe i should score one of these bad boys..
_..just in case_
who knows?
this kaiju might even become a collector's item, down the line
i really love the concept. projector. long battery life. durable. generally reminds me of my old lg g4 that had 2 tb of storage on the phone and a projector i miss those characteristics on a phone. like samsung s21 on many occations short storage has bothered me. i dont like online cloud services always. google drive is only 10gb and then you have to start paying .etc.
i also wouldn't mind having 2 phones. this tank phone would be used for gathering evidence. so everything is organized on it as evidence. i might be out in the rain or something when trying to take pictures of stuff etc. blowing snow, etc. i can also back up my stuff onto it. use it semi as an ssd drrive. the phone itself is the back up of my files. etc.
if i do type c to type c from phone to phone? would i be able to transfer files from phone to phone with a type c to type c cable?
Im writing this comment with my Tank 3 Pro rn. I can't imagine dropping this thing on my foot. Really needs a hand strap tbh.
Dimensity 8200 should be more than enough for most people. I just hope that Unihertz can give decent software support. Two OS update is more than enough.
Will it update to android 14??
I have tank 2, the projector is same resolution but not as bright, they released this one just after i bought it 😔
I wish someone would put a micro 4/3 sensor into a thicc gizmo like this one. Or a Cybershot-T-like proper periscope zoom lens ...
Soon😂
I bought a tank 3 and it's fine they shipped a update now with all the features but still the pro has a projector more ram better camp light and is alittle bit finer mine is 31 this is 29 mm thick so unfortunate but I'm happy with mine too 😔
Also I love it it's my daily I use it alot and it's super good I play wild rift alot and it's nice
Îmi place foarte mult.
I LOVE this phone, my other half is all about that Van Life and using this would be great and the projector....chefs kiss. Thank you for another great video, any chance of more "quirky" items reviewed?
I am looking for a budget motorbike navigation Android phone.
Important:
-big screen (>6.5, maybe a rugged tablet with max 8")
-very high brightness
-GPS
-battery (altough I can hook it to the motorbike battery)
-robustness(vibrations, water/rain,dust)
All the "rest" not important. Suggestions?
I've been using the tank 3 the one without the projector and it's the same as this one just no projector anyhow I've been using it for over 3 months and I can honestly say yes it is pocketable it is beefy it's heavy yes but you get used to it after a while the battery life is amazing I charge it every night but I have went a while weekend barely using it and it only dropped by 10-15% I have used it for video playback music and it just doesn't die on battery life and by God if you put battery saver on and half brightness that's a months worth batter life right their, would 100% recommend it if your a I hate charging my phone every few hours I want the max battery life person like me😊.
Honestly this is a solid "keep in the car in case of earth quake" phone
Yup
I wouldn't keep it in the car because a battery this large on a hot sunny day inside a car seems sketchy
Que vende este celular para mim?
Projector plus this battery.... On a pixel 7 year support... I'd buy it.
I would definitely buy it if I could still use the projector after flashing the OS to something else like graphene.
Only things it's really missing are a thermal camera and a laser rangefinder, then it'd be the perfect rugged phone.
Tank 3 normal/original/non-pro version has laser rangefinder instead of projector
@@MrGodofcar oooh
I like it!
20,000ish mAh battery 👀
That can be a neat pokemon go/monster hunter now phone 🤔
Play all day and not have to recharge
so, no vga and lpt ports? ;)
"this... Hurt... My foot"... Sir, that's what I want
I want it because it's absurd.
Also can this be bought in the uk?
It should be decent for gaming. The dimensity is a solid chip, but it's not going to outpace a Poco F series. I'm not sure if it is directly sold, but I would imagine you can score one through an international reseller or a site like Aliexpress.
My cup of tea 🍵
I need this. Love my s23 ultra but damn this is cool.
Same. I love my s23 ultra and it was expensive but the tank 3 is a beauty.
I love this phone ( i don't even go out of my house )😂
Was going to get this or pixel 7 pro. And of course I get the pixel then they launch the tank 3 with projector 😑
This is definitely exhibit A in a murder trial, but i can't help myself. My nerdgenes and me wanted it so hard...
Don't have a good belt? Don't dare! One shake and your pants goes down
Considering that we live in 2024 and they now charge you to put your SIM card in a different phone... Who's got the money to just pay either an entire extra phone bill or $30 each weekend they go out? Or even remember to do so if you have the means?
Was this made for oil and gas workers?! Seems perfect.
It kinda seems that way don't it?
Still waiting for Titain 2
OMG IF THEY EVER MAKE A FALLOUT COLLAB I'M BUYING 2
这手机真帅，但我决定等待tank 4😂
Vc sabe quais serão as especificações do tank 4?
@@jamtavares7185 那你得问厂家，我可不知道
The speaker is GOD AWFUL TRASH!!! Everything else is awesome. I will be buying this as a powerbank/projector first and as a backup phone/camping light. Of course I want MORE than 10watts of charging power. I will mostly be using it as a retro gaming, like retroarch / Kodi and netflix and pair this with my mini bose bluetooth and ps4 controller and a 1.5tb micro sd. The large ram would really help when playing minecraft and also have youtube in the corner. As my tab s7pro crashes randomly if I do that. Anyways great review!
I find the speaker actually very decent for being a mono speaker. It certainly is better than many other phones speaker.
Have a projector in tank 3
CAUTION ⚠️: Keep out of the reach of children. Will cause serious damage even to adults.
This is definitely is a Kaiju. The size of it just insane
It's to scare potential criminals away. That's why it lights and police siren. How many OS updates in the future?
No idea. I got ONE bug fix on my titan slim. No other os updates.
Probably none.....
I'd buy it if it had a thermal camera
Imagine carrying that monstrosity around in your pockets.,😂
I always walk with a side bag😂
Pocket? No Sir, backpack 😂
I use a belt pouch that can fit this phone. Works a charm!
I want one..I'd trade my iPhone 15 Pro Max 1TB for one.
Am tank 2 și toți prietenii mei sunt wow
The best part of the phone for me is the dimensity 8200
I was PLEASANTLY surprised to see that chip in here.
1 like = 1 prayer for Juans foot
Standard resolution projector 😂😂😂 other companies like Apple they don't even include a charger. Some people are just plain stupid.
Because brand fanboyism.
Finally a decent media phone replacement for my LG v20. Just wondering if there is any issues in the airport with it.
Some airlines might not let you put it in check-in luggage with that 20,000mah battery. But otherwise, shouldn't be an issue.
Take MY MONEY
😁
Night vision?? 😳
Yup. I'm pretty sure there's a kitchen sink on this thing somewhere too...
Android baby!
New murder weapon 😂
Murdered my foot...
It's adowngrade.Tank 2 is way better
Why?
Its fake, busii after 2hour proector.
This phone sucks. The projector on mine failed after one month. Dont buy one. There is zero support and Unihertz/8849 has NO warranty
Great for when your wife rings
700 g ?
854 x 480 p projector ?
No thermal camera ?
I don’t like it !
I'm waiting.....for Tank 4 !
500 g.
30000 mah battery.
Full HD projector
200 ansi lumen.
4th generation thermal monocular
4th generation night vision....
Bu bilgiler nerede yazıyor ? Tank 4 ile ilgili kaynak nerede ?
Is it compatible with an Xbox or PS5 controller? It would be great to take cod mobile and project and play anywhere. That alone would sell me the product..
