5G works on T-Mobile. 5G does not work on AT&t
Been using the Tank 3 pro for three days now.Yes there are some cons but few. I'll start there.I saw a review that said it does not work on cricket. I initially had AT&t, phone calls and text messages worked just fine. 5G INTERNET DOES NOT WORK ON THE AT&T NETWORK WITH THIS PHONE. I switched to T-Mobile and it works just fine.YOU WILL HAVE TO USE THE CHARGER IN THE BOX. I haven't been able to test the theory yet with my other fast chargers, but even plugged in for 2 hours in the truck with Android auto and the battery increase was minimal. Battery lasts forever not that big of a deal.It's big but fits in my deep pocket jeans no problem.There is a place on the bottom back for lanyard. I put a necklace lanyard on day one.It's heavy but not unmanageable.The camera stabilization is kinda crappy at max zoom. There will be no updates to the software that I'm aware of.Due to the thickness of the phone it is somewhat difficult to type at times, and requires two hand operation. Just a learning adjustment.PROSPhone is a conversation starter with just about anybody.Projector is what attracted me to the Tank 3 Pro. It's not the greatest if the room isn't dark, BUT when zoomed out to cover the entire wall of my bedroom, the quality is still there. You'll notice pixelation if you get real close but it's not enough to bother anybody. Even if you just use the projector for a 12-in screen, it's still worth it for sure.This is day three and as I type this review on the tank 3 my battery sits exactly at 50% I have plugged it in for a little bit here and there when in the car for Android autocamping light is brighter than bright, then has an even brighter setting..There is a red and blue LED strobe above the camping light that can be accessed in the native toolbox app.IR cameras pretty cool but I haven't tried it outside yet.IR blaster native app works really well, better than a lot of the Play store universal remote apps I've used in the past with phones that have IR blasterNative toolbox has lots of cool stuff. Fan control, red blue leds, plumbob, compass, and more.Fingerprint scanner has been nice to have.Call quality has been okay.The speaker is decently loud, however it's not always super crisp due to the location of the microphone. If you're watching something and cup your hand at the bottom of your phone naturally while holding it, sound quality is perfect.Physical durability of the phone, I haven't dropped it yet but it came with a screen protector installed and an extra one as well. The review video that I watched showed someone throwing this phone at a boulder in the side of a cliff over and over again. I was waiting to see how long it would take to break the phone but the phone never broke instead The Rock dislodged from the cliff...I haven't tested the waterproof yet, however from the disassembly reviews of watched, there is a decently thick gasket around the entire phone with a secondary gasket around the cooling fan. I don't see myself going to take underwater pictures, but if I drop it in a bucket of water accidentally I'm not going to stress at all.Compared to the price of any other flagship phone this probably has the best value for your money if you can find a way around the few cons. I paid $680 ish total and received in 2 days.Lastly there's a ton more features I could probably talk about. Some things are definitely different from my other Android phones but all in all I am pleased.

8849 Review
Phone is great it’s solid and sturdy with an exceptional battery life. For some it may be just a little large to handle one handed. Projector is of good quality clear and bright enough for rooms with ambient lighting. Speakers are loud but have a tendency to sound Tinny at times. Overall I would recommend this phone to those who work in harsh environments and those who may do Long hikes.

STURDY, TRUSTWORTHY PHONE
The phone is awesome; it meets most of my expectations. Among the highlights: study, trusty feel in the hand; great memory capacitor (and expandable); quick charging and slow draining; lightning-speed downloads; has compatibility with most apps I've used; easy-manage control buttons; wide screen; highly customizable interface.I enjoy the camping light and easy pull-down screen access to various controls. The media audio is robust. One of my favourite features is the built-in projector: I can view photos, text, and applications on large screen in real time.One of my main disappointments is the incoming phone call audio, which is rather flimsy for such an otherwise super and superb phone; with the receiving volume at full loudness, one can barely hear the incoming voice. Is there a built-in application to improve this? The photo quality is also a huge letdown for a photo enthusiast such as I. My cheap Samsung phone takes far more appealing photos, in terms of colour resolution, saturation, image definition, and exposure. I feel like I should receive some form of compensation for putting so much interest and trust in a phone I like so much, only to find these flaws that I have highlighted.

No es lo que promete, es solo publicidad
Es una bestia, tiene todo lo que necesito, lo mejor que tiene es su proyector buena calidad. Pero el sistema operativo que trae no es muy bueno, las aplicaciones se frisan al abrir por primera vez hay que reiniciar para poder abrir la app, la batería no es tan duradera en solo 1 hora usándolo bajo a 80%, lo uso unas 14 horas al día con app de delivery y baja la batería al 55%, prácticamente igual que mi antiguo iPhone.

Setup your emergency information, this part is not included in the initial phone setup.
Amazing phone, exactly what I wanted. Device came unlocked and was able to setup my local provider. Is the phone heavy? Yes but you get used to it. Phone feels sturdy, but advice to take care of the phone.

DO NOT PURCHASE***
5 Star rating from this guy! I absolutely LOVE THIS PHONE!! The projector is worth every bit of that the phone cost me and don't get me started on that absolutely HUGE BATTERY!!! There is only a couple of gripes, because of where the buttons are placed, my hands keep taking screen-shots...lol! And I'm not able to find the native photo gallery. Thats the only concerns I have, at this point, only had it a few days. I work offshore, and not can leave my bulky laptop and tablet at home, because this projector is all i need! I highly recommend this phone! HIGHLY!!
