    There was a flip out physical keyboard phone called the fxtech pro 1 that was broadly liked by reviewers. I wonder if they ever made new models

    E: nope

      Same as the Unihertz Titan. I ran with that for two years and it was decent, if underpowered.

      The dream is all but dead for all fourteen and a half of us QWERTY phone enthusiasts I think. A surprising number went to the Samsung Galaxy Flip models, though having used this for two years or so, I wouldn’t recommend it either.

      Maybe one day…

        I too ran a unihertz titan for a few years, massive beast of a thing but I love a keyboard. Before that I had the blackberry keytwo which was my favourite phone of all time.

        I backed the planet computers astroslide before they took everyone’s money and ran after delivering a fraction of the units promised and what was delivered was woefully out of date due to their ineptitude.

        I still dream of a blackberry key three, but alas my dreams will never be fulfilled and I’m trapped on a shitty touch screen :'(

        I would love a good qwerty phone. They’ve just been making consistently shitty ones. Just give me one in the end form factor as the BB Curve and we’re golden. I don’t want to have a massive slab of a phone just to have a keyboard.
