PMKLR3m, 14 Mar 2023Could have 3500mah + 5g supporting chipset, instead of 8/256gb5G would be completely pointless on a phone that's aimed to fight off addictive apps.

This is definitely what I'm looking for. 5 inches screen smartphone. Why manufacturers never thought of that? 150g and below definitely my ideal. Please be available globally.

Now this is interesting.
Here are the actual dimensions...
Qin3 Ultra: 126.8 x 61.85 x 8.7 mm, 118 g
iPhone SE 1: 123.8 x 58.6 x 7.6 mm, 113 g
Xperia XZ1 Compact: 129 x 65 x 9.3 mm, 140 g
I just recently sold my 2nd SE 1. I got an iPhone 4S which acts like an iPod, still on iOS6, prefer headphone jack on top, and it's shorter by 8.6 mm. I now believe the 4 series is the best iPhone design. Not the 5 series which was an elongated 4.
My SE's battery was atrocious by iOS15 even with 88% health. I didn't want to pay an extra $69 to get the battery replaced. I only had it for 2 years and I didn't use it constantly. It was getting laggy any way with only 2 GB RAM and many iOS apps are no longer optimized for that 4" display.
This Qin3 Ultra better have pretty decent battery life. They usually don't. But if this is supposed to keep you away from the internet, then it doesn't need to have decent battery life. It's an interesting device. Hope more OEMs follow suit. I'm looking at you two, Samsung and Sony.

Oh man I absolutely LOVE the form factor, but I’m not a fan of the limited software implementation just like the previous Qin phones. I would buy this thing in an instant if it was just a normal version of android. I have been looking for a smaller phone for so long, but all the options in the market are either too big, have poor battery life, or are too expensive… I’ll be keeping my eye on this though, it would awesome if anyone made custom ROMs for it.

Quite like this one. Something refreshing in a sea of large phones. The Helio G99 provides adequate performance and could be pretty future proof for the market targeted by this device.

They have to access these things somehow while being able to communicate with parents when they have to stay for after-school activities.
