I have a unihertz Atom XL.
Pros:
- Battery lasts for 3 days with my usage (browsing when not at my desk, whatsapp, a handful of calls, android auto)
- Rugged / waterproof (IP68)
- Fits nicely in your hand
- 48 MP camera - not as good as Pixels, but good
- Good dual SIM setup
Cons:
- Thick; probably mostly due to the battery. Doesn't bother me, but if you wear skinny jeans and carry your phone in your front pocket it'll be noticeable
- Just got Android 11
- The built in walkie talkie is something of a gimmick since it chews up battery in standby/monitor mode. I thought it would be a useful backup since we live in the sticks w/o reliable phone signal. Get the Atom L instead
I had the Atom until AT&T said it wasn't compatible with their 5G forced switch over. Now I have the cheapest android they offer until I can find something else.
I had an original Jelly but battery life was miserable.
You could also switch to T-mobile or Verizon. Though you probably already thought of that.
Yeah, in my area T-Mobile isn't. And Verizon is amazing but triple what I'm paying now.
