Congratulations to the Uniq Phone team on winning the Best Hardware Solution Award at the UQ School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Innovation Showcase 2025!

Their project delivered a stylish, compact, and rugged 4G phone—designed to be sleek and practical for a globetrotting professional. Including subtasks across circuit design, mechanical case design, software development, antenna design, and full product integration, the result was a complete, professional solution featuring a compact circuit board with multiple Ball Grid Array (BGA) packages and software written entirely in embedded C with custom hardware drivers.

Rinstrum was once again happy to sponsor this award and continues to be impressed by the creativity and technical excellence showcased by young engineers.
