Many thanks for the mention of our Before Launcher app. I'll mention a few other features: no ads, privacy centered, never a subscription and the notification filter (to cut down on unnecessary interuptions).
No problem, such an honour for you to have seen this video! I completely agree, those features definitely helped a lot with my own intentionality of the phone usage! Thanks for creating such an amazing app!
I have a problem with battery drain when using Before Launcher. Is there a way to optimise it? I also use Unihertz Jelly Star. Besides this issue the app is perfect for me.
Thank you for discussing small phones reasonably, and focusing on the whole point of having a truly small phone, which is not to duplicate everything about larger phones only in a small package, but to to accomplish something different. Too many reviews of small phones are overly critical because they do not match the performance point-by-point of larger phones, which really misses the actual point of having a phone with a small, and less attractive, and less applicable to all the sundry things that people ask of their larger screen phones, i.e. videos, social media, and longer form writing. The qualities you address and focus upon are just the ones that I seek in small device. Thank you for the excellent and well-organized review. I'd look forward to more such content.
Thank you so much for the kind words and taking the time to write this, it really means the world to me! I am really glad it brought you value and that it helped!
I've read Cal Newports book twice, preached the virtues to anyone that will listen, bought a Nokia 110 (shortly after almost killed someone with it in frustration), sulked back to Pixel, installed minimalist launchers app blockers, disabled notifications with best intentions. Within a week or two comfort & convenience in the pocket manipulate into tech creep. - several times over. I think this is a new middle road, at least it ties up with Atomic Habits idea of 'less visible & appetizing'. I'm actually a teacher of PSHE for Ks3 & 4, putting together a course on Digital Wellness - driven by this personal frustration and accompanying rant. Just clicked 'buy now'. Let's see how it goes, thanks for the video Owen!
I love that book and completely agree with your observations. I've tried dumb phones but can't live without Android OS as I use a sports app to login to the gym, pool etc.. and there's no paper based login. Also all my friends use WhatsApp, I kept telling them to call/SMS my dumb phone but I end up sometimes missing urgent messages. We can't change society, and as much as I'd like to exit I can't bring my people with me. P.s. I'm thinking of getting the jelly, also currently looking into eink phones as that ought to kill my UA-cam addiction. The small jelly screen may do the same
Calling this expensive coming from 800-1000$ smart phones... I have to say this is the most sensible review about the whole dumb phone concept. For how long I’ve been trying to wrap my head around the idea to get into dumb phones I just can’t, some apps are mandatory for me, like my online banking app, and let’s face it, we won’t be able to get back completely to dumb phones anymore. This is the best compromise we can do, with such a tweaked phone
You're absolutely right, thinking about spending $100-$200 on a dumbphone is hard to process and get over at first! and we cant ever go back to how things were before so just reducing it down and personalising it to our own needs is the way for sure!!
@@WhateverBlasques you are correct, a black screen will use the least battery and a white screen will use the most, OLED or not. But general screen brightness will have a much more significant impact on battery life.
got the Jelly 2 for 100 bucks back in 2022 and used it as my only phone for almost 2 years. There's a lot of stuff that you can do to make this guy more usable and last longer. The CPU is super overkill for how small the phone is, you can root it and use something like Franco Kernel Manager to shut off half of the CPU cores since you won't be doing anything intensive on it. I also ended up downgrading the phone to Android 10 just because the newer versions of android have so much empty filler space for bigger screens
I just ordered one today, and I'm currently watching this on something as wide as the Jelly is tall! I remember having a Samsung of a similar size to a Jelly about 15 years ago, and it was the best phone I ever had, despite being 15 years ago slower! Can't wait for it to arrive.
So basically its a smartphone that looks dumb lol.Honestly this video is quite good! I always struggle with battery life when it comes to dumb phones. All the things that you mentioned about the phone was really helpful. The presentation was very organised. Also thanks for the tips about the reductions of phone usage. Keep going Owen! 🍀
I have used the Jelly Star with the exact same launcher for a year now. Yes the screen may be too small to watch content on, but I got used to the size. To me, this small size became normal real fast. I didn't have the self-control, finding work arounds for youtube for example by accessing it through chrome. I started with a screen time of 30-45min daily on this device. Now it was at around 2hrs daily. I recently ended up ditching the phone, and went back to my older CAT S22 Flip. Now I'm back to 40min daily. My goal is to go completely dumbphone after some time, the Jelly Star was a great stepping stone for me in the right direction and I highly, highly recommend it! BUT! The small size will become normal. Just beware :)
Thanks for sharing man about the screen size.. I'm also fighting UA-cam addiction. I blocked it everywhere I can, even on my router.. but for some reason Chrome can still open it even though site is blocked on my home router. Only other alternative I see is eink phones, but I fear we would get used to those too lol
@@OwenSeamons idk why you dont just use whatsapp web for mobile then, and on your desktop too. just say you dont have a whatsapp device anymore and need to use web. you "stress" yourself willingfully, you search for ways to escape your urges instead of just fighting the urge, or go with it.
WhatsApp Web doesn't work on dumb phone browsers it needs a modern stack the good thing is WhatsApp desktop no longer requires having a smartphone connected to Internet... Therefore one could technically live with a dumphone while out and about, and check WhatsApp messages on their computer few times a day. (And keep the smartphone locked somewhere)
Thank you friend…I really appreciate your thorough explanation and the sharing of your personal experiences. If I get one, I want to set it up similar to yours. Thanks
amazing little device. for me, it's 2 steps away from perfection, that being first the removal do the lights at the back, i don`t wanna pay for that since I`m never using it. and second, an amoled display for real batery savings and a deep deep black background.
Thanks for this most excellent review, Owen! I'm mostly concerned about the limited security support. Not only the Jelly Star but for all Unihertz phones.
great review! I've been using the f21pro with the Minimalism launcher. its nice to have buttons and switching between t9 text or using my thumb to swype text. drawback is it's android 11, no nfc, slightly inaccurate gps, or accelerometer, wack camera. I'd love to move to the jellystar but i'm really gonna miss the buttons to text with 😢
Yeah the f21 pro is also a really good phone too! But you’re right unfortunately the jelly star doesn’t have it, nothing beats the physical buttons!! 😮💨
Great video. Really appreciate a UK based review. Picked one up today and watched this for tips on setting it up with intentional minimalism in mind. Would love to see more content in the future!
Great video and great advice (and production value)! Bought a jelly star and basically copied your setup and its been great (although definitely having to get used to typing on this thing).
A lot of people complain about lack of updates, what would be the main concerns with this? Because personally for me as long as it works I'm good to go?
I think the thing about updates is mainly for security and patches, but i'm with you on this, for me as long as it work it's completely fine for me, wouldn't worry about it too much buddy!
11:15 actually black backgrounds only saves battery on OLED displays which individual pixels can be separately lit, since the Jelly has a LCD screen it should not make a difference since the backlight behind the display will always be fully on no matter the color Thanks for the video, love my Jelly Star, have it since 6 months now
That's amazing, i'm so glad to hear this has been helpful!! I think both the LP3 and the jelly star are great options, i guess the deciding factor for most people are: one has whatsapp and the other does not. Thanks so much for this lovely message! 😄🪴
Thanks a lot for this great video! May I ask what's your opinion on eink smartphones? Specifically in terms of fighting UA-cam addiction. I feel like an eink unihertz would be the perfect combo against addiction whilst also having WhatsApp etc
Do you know if it supports a desktop mode (like dex)? I prefer small phones and i actually had an earlier version of this one. Thinking of going back to something smaller than my Zenfone 10, but i think with a desktop mode could really make it good combe of useful when needed and distraction free when not. Was also considering a razor since the outside screen can be minimalistic and it also supports desktop mode.
Unfortuneatly the default texting keypad does not, when you rotate the screen while texting the keypad becomes weird and scrunched up in a corner, but im sure there is an app you can install which does this!
I guess the how we classify normal usage differs from person to person, but you should be getting a lot longer than 3 hours?! Perhaps contact Unihertz about this? it sounds like you might have a faulty device
What do you think of the security patches on jelly star? I read that you have to debloat or root it first to minimize the 'security' risks. I only plan to use this for messaging and banking, also as a stand-alone device, what is your opinion about that? Enjoyed the review btw :)
personally not a huge fan, i enjoy the small form factor, the bigger it gets the more it just get used as a standard "smart phone", other than that it seems like a pretty decent device
The Jelly Star looks like just the phone I may be looking for, for all the reason you cite. However, I would have a wish list that the Star did not fulfill (and for any possible Star 2). Owen, wondering what you think of: - Color e-ink screen (lower power usage, less attractiveness calling to yo to use it for video watching and such), easier on the eyes, and better in sunlight - Greater durability (perhaps like the Atom line?) meaning negating the need for the inevitably-yellowing silicone case, along with submersible and a decent IP rating - More fully suited for US carrier bands - eSIM (is it possible to ditch the physical SIM altogether and by that saving physical space and expense?) - Bonus would be a second (or third) programmable button For all that, I could lose: - gimmicky LEDs - radio - flashlight - IR remote - 3.5 audio port (which I know among some is controversial, but for myself once I experienced the freedom of bluetooth earbuds there is no going back. Plus it saves valuable physical space)
Absolutely, those are some really good points and things like greater durability and e-ink screen would be great additions to the phone, it has been hard trying to find the "perfect phone", but hopefully future release may help get closer to that point!
Thanks for making this video! I've been trying to curb my phone addiction and had my eye on the Jelly Star and this review was perfect. I was planning on switching the SIM between this and my Google Pixel as I am not completely ready to transition to a dumb(er) phone full time. Do you know if this would be an issue with the Jelly Star? Thanks again
No that sounds absolutely fine! I actually started out in a very similar way too, and slowly transitioning in is definitely the best way to do it! Good luck with it all!
Want to decluter your life? First buy phone that you can use as dumb phone like Iphone 4 you need a good battery life, second buy a tablet for media consumption
WhatsApp ruins the chill of a dumb phone. Uninstall it and feel a load lift from your mind. Friends will always SMS or call and it'll be one on one chats where you care about the conversation, instead of a group where people are lazy and rude at times.
great video but just letting you know you may have leaked someones phone number while talking about whatsapp around 7 minutes, you can edit/blur this retroactively in youtube studio i'm pretty sure
Thank so much for letting me know! I completely forgot about that, but i just double checked and the ones that doesn't have a name are spams! Thanks again!
You are right Mina, it is difficult to switch to a phone like this when you need it for studies or work, but I think you’ll find a way to make it work. Hahahah I hope I didn’t upset the team at unihertz 😂

The Jelly Star looks like just the phone I may be looking for, for all the reason you cite.
However, I would have a wish list that the Star did not fulfill (and for any possible Star 2). Owen, wondering what you think of:
- Color e-ink screen (lower power usage, less attractiveness calling to yo to use it for video watching and such), easier on the eyes, and better in sunlight
- Greater durability (perhaps like the Atom line?) meaning negating the need for the inevitably-yellowing silicone case, along with submersible and a decent IP rating
- More fully suited for US carrier bands
- eSIM (is it possible to ditch the physical SIM altogether and by that saving physical space and expense?)
- Bonus would be a second (or third) programmable button
For all that, I could lose:
- gimmicky LEDs
- radio
- flashlight
- IR remote
- 3.5 audio port (which I know among some is controversial, but for myself once I experienced the freedom of bluetooth earbuds there is no going back. Plus it saves valuable physical space)
Absolutely, those are some really good points and things like greater durability and e-ink screen would be great additions to the phone, it has been hard trying to find the "perfect phone", but hopefully future release may help get closer to that point!

Thank you Busra, you’re so kind, thank you for the support 😆✨
I think Unihertz is mad at you because you turned it from a very smart phone into a dumbphone 😂😂💛
You are right Mina, it is difficult to switch to a phone like this when you need it for studies or work, but I think you’ll find a way to make it work. Hahahah I hope I didn’t upset the team at unihertz 😂
That's horrible u destroying that phone like that 😭
haha i understand, its just what works for me personally, i know this is extreme and horrible for some people 😂
This is so informative thanks Owen 🙌🖤🤍
Thanks so much Meem 😊💛
