It has an IR blaster. Why is this the only phone I've seen in ages with an IR blaster? And the rest of its specs look decent, although the battery is a little poor and the lack of USB OTG is a bit unfortunate. Still, if it had decent 3rd-party ROM support I'd actually consider it.

Finally someone mentions software support. Android 12 is good now, but what about in a couple years?
Knowing unihertz they'll abandon it as soon as they have a newer model out. Long term support is not their thing. You'll be lucky to get one version upgrade (my non pro original jelly never got one despite being promised) and a handful of security patches.
I'm not even as worried about the major versions as security patches. I rather prefer my phones to last more than a year, which is kinda hard when their security stance looks like so much swiss cheese.
