FULL STORY ======================================================================Ulefone Armor 30 Pro combines ruggedness with productivity A triple-camera setup in a rugged smartphone isn't that common 64MP camera and a 4W speaker reflect a shift in what rugged smartphones aim to offer
The best rugged smartphones often focus on strength and battery life, but in recent years, theyve started to include features such as portable projectors and even dual displays.
The Ulefone Armor 30 Pro is a dual-screen rugged device featuring a 6.95-inch FHD+ main display with a 120Hz refresh rate. On the rear, it sports a
3.4-inch secondary screen with a 960x412 resolution, protected by Gorilla Glass.
While the displays cant be operated independently, both run on Android, and the rear screen allows users to take selfies and video calls using the main camera system. Big battery and a MediaTek processor
The device is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7050 chipset, paired with
16GB of RAM and 512GB of internal storage. It supports 5G connectivity and AI-powered features.
As with many rugged devices, it houses a large 12,800mAh battery that
promises extended usage. It supports 66W fast charging for quick top-ups and offers 10W reverse charging to power smaller devices like smartwatches or earbuds.
One major surprise feature is the Ulefone Armor 30 Pro's triple rear camera setup - which is pretty uncommon in this category. It includes a 50MP main sensor, a 50MP ultra-wide shooter, and a 64MP infrared night vision camera supported by four IR LED blasters.
The Armor 30 Pro is built for more than just survival in harsh environments. It features pogo pin connectors for accessories like endoscopes and microscopes, along with a dedicated shutter button for quickphoto capture.
Another unusual inclusion is a waterproof 4W loudspeaker, embedded in the hexagonal camera bump, that's capable of reaching up to 118dB. Its an unusual choice for a device in this category, suggesting a shift toward entertainment and daily use, making it feel closer to a business smartphone than a traditional field device.
While not a typical productivity smartphone, the dual-screen layout and advanced sensor suite elevate its potential as a rugged tablet replacement
for those who need portability with function.
The Armor 30 Pro will be available from April 14, priced at $379.99 on Aliexpress, $549.99 on the official store, 499.99 on Amazon, 33,015 on Ozon, and $499.99 on Mercado Livre.
