Gunpei Yokoi’s philosophy of "Lateral Thinking with Withered Technology" had a lot of merit to it. By using technology they’d already developed and understood when making the Game Boy, Nintendo was able to make it cost effective and reliable. But just because you’re working with old technology, doesn’t mean you can’t improve it. The Game Boy was built off much of the same tech as the NES, but outclassed its older console brother. The handheld was twice as fast despite both systems using 8-bit processors, and the Game Boy had four times as much memory. The lack of color helped.

You would be right to assume a phone like this doesn’t get to tout an amazing screen. This tiny panel sports a 240 x 432 resolution, which translates to a 201.7ppi density. Compare that to the over-400 pixel density of current high-end phones and things start to look a bit blurry. You can definitely see the pixels in this screen, especially when reading tiny words.

Insulet’s Omnipod is the only tubeless insulin pump on the market, making it a more discrete and comfortable option than injections or larger tubed pumps. As diabetic patients need to be administered insulin daily, the impact of user comfort cannot be overstated.

Unihertz has followed up on its previous micro-smartphone, the Jelly, with a rugged masterpiece in minuscule engineering called the Atom, offering a full Android experience in the smallest durability-focused form factor ever devised. Of course, that means that there is a laundry list of trade-offs and only a relatively small niche audience who the Atom might appeal to in the long-term. Throughout our time with this handset, the novelty of that didn’t really wear off and using the phone was plenty of fun thanks to well-optimized inputs and generally great performance — for what this is. But problems did arise in terms of day-to-day use, admittedly mostly because some text is difficult to read without brilliant eyesight. Furthermore, audio quality isn’t awesome and the camera suffers some issues. That does not, however, mean that this device is any less worthy of consideration. For a number of users and lifestyles, in fact, the Unihertz Atom will be a perfect fit precisely because of its small size and durability.
