Never heard of them so I just checked it out and they have phones with DLP projectors built in? That's some wild shit but I do like to see some actual innovation. I like that they also have phones with real keyboards. Are they US based by chance? It seems like every phone I have marginal interest in over the last decade is only sold in the EU and doesn't support TMobile's bands.
Edit: thar DLP phone is 30mm thick?! Also it only supports 4G?
Edit 2: looks like they have a 5G version of this monster phone. 23,000mAH battery!
Chinese.
The projector thing isn't quite new, actually. Samsung Galaxy Beam did this in 2012. Though that projector was 15 lumens, Unihertz has one with 100 lumen projector. It also has a cooling fan for that, and huge battery that makes it a bit of a brick.
I myself have Ulefone Armor 24, and I do like the brick form-factor, but I know most people probably wouldn't.
These are listed for the Tank 3 Pro: 2G GSM (Bands 2/3/5/8), 3G WCDMA (Bands 1/2/4/5/6/8/19), 3G CDMA2000 (Bands BC0/BC1), 4G FDD-LTE (Bands 1/2/3/4/5/7/8/12/13/17/18/19/20/25/26/28A/28B/66), 4G TDD-LTE (Bands 34/38/39/40/41/42), 5G NR (Bands N1/2/3/5/7/8/12/13/20/25/26/28/38/40/41/77/78)
You can find band number list on Wikipedia to get the frequency.
Checking T-Mobile US website, it seems to lack 600MHz for both "extended range" 4G and 5G as well as mmWave 5G support.
Keep in mind the possible lack of updates with no custom ROMs available. That just sucks, and is usual with such Chinese brands.
