this is the ulefone power armor 13 and i have to say that this is the biggest phone that i have
tried so far and i've tried hundreds of phones this phone weights 492 grams that's just over
a pound so keeping a phone like this in your pocket is pretty much impossible first of all
is not gonna fit and if it does fit it's pretty much gonna pull your pants down it's that heavy
now you could buy a case for it kind of like a case this is what you could buy for it so
this attaches to your belt but when you have the phone on this the phone becomes even bigger so of
course this phone is not gonna be for everyone this one is also shock proof and waterproof so
you can take the phone swimming you can take it in the shower and nothing will happen to it
now a big part of why this phone is so massive is the battery inside it so inside it we have a 13
200 milliamp hour battery and on one charge you can basically get a week maybe even more than a
week depending how you use the phone it really depends if you play games on it if you're just
watching videos and stuff like that but a massive massive battery so you're not
gonna be running out of power anytime soon the phone also supports fast charging so 33 watt
fast charging so charging the phone from zero to 100 is done in just under 4 hours so i guess
pretty decent taking in consideration how big that battery inside it is the phone also supports some
15 watt wireless charging and reverse wireless charging so what is reverse wireless charging well
if you place another phone on the back of this one of course the other phone has to support wireless
charging you can charge other devices from this one so you can charge smart watches you can charge
headphones for example earbuds anything that supports some wireless charging this is a
feature that we've seen for some flagships like the samsung galaxy s21 just to give you a better
idea of how big this phone is this is how an iphone 12 looks next to it so you can see it is
much much bigger and as i said it is extremely heavy on the front here we have a 6.81 inches
ips panel that has a 1080p resolution the viewing angles are great on it the colors look super
vibrant and the screen does seem to get bright enough so the phone can be used outdoors
so better screen than most other rock devices that i've been seeing lately and at the top here
we also have a little notification led something that we don't typically see these days design-wise
well this phone looks like most rock phones that we've been seeing over the past three four years
so nothing that impressive about them the design we have a lot of plastic on the back on the sides
we have some metallic plates and we have some kind of rubberized plastic on the corners here so that
would help if you'd be to drop the phone on the back there we have four cameras we also have five
leds so those leds do get quite bright so you can use them as a flashlight and we also have
the speaker on the back here and even though the speaker gets quite loud well the speaker is always
pointing away from you so whenever you're holding the phone like this to watch a video for example
the sound is kind of pointing away from you now at the top here we have an infrared range finder
so if i turn this on i can basically point it at the camera and you can measure the distance from
the phone to bowl or something like that so this could come in handy if you work in construction
another very unique feature something that i haven't seen for any other smartphone
i don't think i have one is an attachment on the side here where you can attach an endoscope so
this one here i believe you have to buy this something separately so basically this is a very
long camera that you can control from the phone and you can look into pipes you can look under
objects and stuff like that that little camera has four leds and you can adjust the brightness so a
very unique set of features for this particular device just above that connector for the endoscope
we also have a customizable button so you can have that button open any application that you want and
just above that we have the slot for the single so this device can take either two sim cards or a sim
card and an sd card now the phone has 256 gigs of internal storage so i feel that that's more
than enough for most people so you're probably not gonna need to install a sd card moving on to the
right hand side there we have the power button we have the volume keys and the fingerprint scanner
now the fingerprint scanner works okay but i've noticed that sometimes you have to touch it
twice in order for the phone to register that you're actually touching that fingerprint scanner
but whenever it works it does unlock the phone within a second after pressing the fingerprint
scanner so overall it's acceptable i'm gonna say and at the bottom here we have a little rubber
flap that covers the 3.5 mil audio jack and the usbc charging port moving on to cameras well we
have a lot of cameras on the back there we have the main camera we have an ultra white camera a
macro camera and then we have another camera that's used for portrait mode pictures and of
course we have the selfie camera now like most rug devices you're not going to be buying this phone
for its cameras overall i find that the cameras are pretty average now if you do have plenty of
light the pictures do turn out quite decent maybe just as good as some other more expensive devices
but as soon as you don't have enough light the pictures become kind of grainy and even though
we do have a night mode in there the phone just doesn't do good if you take pictures some in
low light so overall i'm gonna say the cameras are pretty average as for video recordings the maximum
recording um is 4k at 30 frames per second but at that resolution we don't have any stabilization
so if your hand is shaky if you're walking or anything like that your footage will look a bit
shaky so overall the cameras on the back and on the front of this phone are pretty average i'm
gonna say performance wise well this is one of the most powerful rug devices that i've tried so far
so this one is powered by the mediatek helio g95 that's paired with eight gigs of ram so plenty of
ram and a pretty powerful cpu and for those of you that like benchmark scores well this device gets
an antutu benchmark score of just under 350 000 so pretty powerful device mostly for a rugged phone
the phone runs android 11 right out of the box and on top of that we have a very light
launcher so something very close to stock android then i haven't noticed the phone slowing down for
anything so it doesn't matter what app you're using the phone is always fast it's fast at
opening gaps it's fast at switching in between apps it's fast when you're in the app and you
can even play games on like call of duty and the phone does perform really really well as i said
one of the most powerful rug devices i've tried so far so if you're looking for a quick phone this
is definitely a fast enough phone for most people there is also an nfc chip inside it and of course
that means that you're gonna be able to make payments um using the phone and of course google
pay we have 4g connectivity so this is not a 5g device but for bands we do have a lot of bands
available and you should be able to use this one pretty much anywhere in the world including the us
so it should work on some carriers some in the us we also have more sensors than most other devices
that i've been trying lately and i've also tried of course the gps unit in it and it takes about
a second to find your location if you're outdoors it takes a bit longer if you're indoors but once
your location is found it doesn't seem to lose it so overall this phone is packed with features so
to quickly conclude this video the ulefone power armor 13 is a bit better than all the other rocked
phones that i've been trying over the past couple of years it is a bit faster it has a better screen
and of course a bigger screen it has a bigger battery life it has features like that rangefinder
and that connector for the endoscope something that you don't see with any other devices so it
is a bit better than all the other rugged phones um that i've tried but it's also the biggest and
the heaviest so that is a downside because this one is not gonna be great for everyone mostly
because of the size and well weight basically so there you have it this is the ulefone power
armor 13. hopefully this video was useful thanks for watching and i'll see you in the next one
