Ulefone Armor 26 Ultra specs
The Ulefone Armor 26 Ultra boasts an impressive array of rugged features. The phone features a large 6.78 inch LCD Multi-Touch display with a 120Hz refresh rate for smooth visuals coupled with Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection from scratches and nicks.
It is also IP68 and IP69K certified, meaning its dustproof, can withstand submersion in water, and is even resistant to high-pressure water jets. Additionally, it meets the MIL-STD-810H certification for drop and shock resistance, ensuring it can survive bumps and tumbles.
In terms of perfomance, the phone is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8020 processor with 12GB of RAM, a combination that should provide smooth performance for everyday tasks and even some gaming. Storage options include a generous 512GB, expandable further via a microSD card for users with massive storage needs. The device runs on the latest Android 13 OS without any bloatware (not even one tiny bit), offering a clean user experience.
One among the two biggest highlights of the Armor 26 Ultra is the massive 15600mAh battery, among the largest capacities available in a smartphone today as Ulefone claims this translates to an incredible 1750 hours of standby time or 56 hours of talk time. The phone supports incredibly fast 120W wired charging, allowing you to quickly refuel the battery. It also supports 33W wireless charging and even reverse charging for powering other devices.
Another massive highlight of this chunky handset has to be the quad-camera system on the back, headlined by a massive 200 MP main sensor accompanied by a 50 MP ultrawide sensor for capturing expansive shots, a 64MP night vision camera for low-light conditions, and a 3.2x optical zoom telephoto lens for bringing distant objects closer. The 50MP front-facing camera caters to selfie enthusiasts and video calls.
Additional features include a powerful speaker at the rear that offers 3W of output with a thumping of 121 decibels, a notification light for charging and incoming notifications with a side-mounted fingerprint sensor along with face unlock for security and supports for added convenience. It boasts a dual-SIM tray with support for 5G connectivity for ultrafast data speeds. While a headphone jack isn’t mentioned, the phone is advertised to support underwater photography and quick mode switching underwater.
