The media could not be loaded. There are plenty of good features on this phone. The first and best one for me personally is the battery life and the rapid charging. For the first week or so of owning this phone, I put it through it's paces. I used it as much as I could, playing games, videos (also the projector) listening to music and using it as a sat nav during my driving job. In 48 hours I managed to get it down to about 4% battery. Since then, just using the phone normally I can run it between 3 or 4 days. When it does run low, the 66W charger replenishes the battery so fast. I think it took around 90 minutes for a full charge from flat. Before making this review, I put my phone on charge at 63% and 10 minutes later it was already at 84%. So for me, not having to worry about my battery all weekend is the best feature. Note, you can't charge other phones from this phone but it is quite slow. Connect them both, usb-c to usb-c and it starts charging automatically.As in the video, the projector is quite bright and clear (also note that the 2 diagonal lines only appear because of filming on another phone, they aren't visible when watching naturally). I've spent a couple of nights laying in bed with my ear buds in, watching films on Netflix and it does the job really well. I took this review video around 11am so there was quite a lot of light coming into the room but the projector held up well. It works best in full darkness though. If you are in full darkness there's a few other features like the camping light which is so bright. It will completely light up any space you need and it doesn't drain the battery much. Also there's a night vision camera, I think it's 64 mp, it can see in complete darkness too. You can only take photos, no videos, while using the night vision. Lastly there's an emergency light feature which is also very bright and would attract a lot of attention. There's many other features on this phone but I don't find myself using them much.The camera, although a high megapixel, isn't as good as my S22 ultra. It takes a while sometimes to focus on your subject and I'm not sure if there's any image stabilisation as the videos I take are quite shaky. Also there's not much standard editing features like my S22. The photo album isn't great either, I'm struggling to navigate to the pictures I want. Maybe that's just me, I'll have to keep looking. All in all, the cameras are usable but I'd much prefer my S22.I do enjoy taking photos and videos and editing them but this phone needs more features.It does however have an external memory card slot (paired with a double SIM tray) which I believe takes up to a 1tb card which is great as my 22 only had internal storage.The face recognition and fingerprint scanner work really well.One other feature I've found I use is the infrared blaster paired with the TV remote app. It's great for turning down the TV when the kids have their cartoons too loud.Final thoughts, it's a really good phone, I've not had any lag while using it (120hz refresh rate and 22gb Ram). It operates really smoothly. It can be heavy to hold, due to the large battery but the build quality is great, it feels solid in your hand.I've been a Samsung fanboy for years now but I doubt I'll be forking out £1k+ for a new phone again. I purchased one of these Tank 2 for my brother while it was on offer at £410 (he loves it) and I got mine at £440. I've recently seen them on sale at £380 on Amazon. That's a steal if you ask me. You get lots for your money.I recently broke the screen on my S22 and it cost £260 to repair. I wish I didn't bother and put the money towards my tank.I would definitely recommend the Tank 2 to all my friends. It's a good solid phone at a good price.

The phone its self is brilliant a bit clunky to operate ie you have to go in to setting to tell the usb port what you want it to do one you get used to that idea its fine installed software OK but can't uninstall some of the apps, lasts about 7 days without recharge it will charge another phone but you have to go to setting and tell it to do so.The projector is basic but could do with some way of refocusing it, not bright but watchable photo taken on my ceiling in daylight like I said usableAll in all fine usable cheap phone

I set this phone up and everything was okay until I try to connect to a Bluetooth speaker. It Found the speaker and paired it but would not connect and play audio. I also tried my smart watch and it didn’t work and I tried it with several speakers and all of them failed I tried it with three pairs of headphones and they Also failedI could tolerate that, but the last straw was Although it connected to my CarPlay when I called the Phone. It would not come through the speakers so there was obviously an issue with the Bluetooth but if you are not interested in Bluetooth, it’s a great phone although the Bluetooth issue might’ve just been a one off with my phone.

phone very good overall but mine kept overheating and battery didnt last more than 24 hours with light use think battery fault had to return .its a shame because rest of features great ideal for what my field engineers needed but cant risk the battery issue. might give the tank 3 a go to see if just a one off problem

Battery life is amazing. Screen is decent. Audio quality fine. But it's not as tough it sounds or as it should be with that much weight. It fell off the sofa (seat - maybe 60 cm) onto a wooden floor and the screen fractured. Being held together by the supplied screen protector but unexpected it would break that easily - maybe it's too heavy.

Amazing phone great features and good price and looks coolbut very heavy and Bulky if you can put up with that then this is the phone for youArrived quick but had a smashed screen protector but I'm not worried about that it doesn't really need it phone is like a tank

Very good quality , everything that is advertised about this mobile phone is spot on . I enjoy watching YouTube on my wall on a night . Also the lighting system on this phone is outstanding . Only draw back for some people maybe the weight of the phone . But this is far out weighted with everything else you get . Probably the best rugged phone on the market
