You should really test the power armor 18t. Its a size that's actually useable, has a much better cpu and radio, is built like a tank but can also be easily disassembled and repaired. Been daily driving it for 1.5 years now and love it. Only has a 10,000 battery, but still lasts 3 days with a 18hr screen on time.
you should try Unihertz Tank 3 Pro, which is even bulkier, with close to 24K mAh battery, but more importantly, a very decent projector for on the go situations... I'd be very interested to see that little marvel of projector inside 😊

@@linecraftman3907 the advantage of the infrared camera over the flashlight is that you can see what you are looking at without the thing you are looking at being able to see you back.
I have the Armor 19T. The main reasons I bought it was the thermal camera and 3 day battery life. I didn't even realise it had a built in microscope until my 2nd week of owning it. Another bonus is how repairable the 19T is, it's held together with hex screws so no heating required. Should this phone ever die on me in an unrepairable way then I'll be grabbing another ulephone... But not the 24, I don't think I've got pockets big enough for that to fit in.
yeh, i had older version and heck. only got spider after stepping on phone on gravel road with displey on rocks. but it still worked, even had IP. Minus is older chip and not good optimazization, so it started running slowly and tearing when multitasking after two years.
all jokes aside, I'm not sure this thing could block anything bigger than a 9mm (and certainly not survive blocking said 9mm), but that's already impressive for a bri- a phone.
I had one of these before, the Armor 13. Really resilient bugger - except when it died due to water damage after getting rained on while I was walking to work.
Lol. This is exactly what I experienced with a Ulefone Armor X3 that I got for free from work. Didn't have a use for it but thought it might be useful for taking under water pictures as there was a underwater camera mode. I wanted to test if it was really waterproof, so I dunked it in the sink and it died😂
@@czechvirusS @nathar_ghados Jerry's right, the weakest link was the screen. Even this model does not have Gorilla Glass Victus, and neither did mine. Could've been an old adhesive because I had the phone for a while, or corrosion of the rubber sealing the gaps over time. Your assessment is correct because the screen blacked out, while it the rest was still functioning. But no, the screen was not cracked. I wouldn't be complaining if the screen was cracked because I would already know the phone was compromised.

@@toad_keeper5397 have been using ullephone for 5 years now and this one is my favorit yet. they seem to test difrent things al the time. they also have one with built in earbuds :P
Agree with that, I bought this phone month ago after my Motorola died and I'm very happy with it. As a truck delivery driver it feels like this phone was just made for people like me. I drop it very often, battery is amazing, back led flashlight light helps during small repairs. Its also pretty comfortable phone even for it's size and weight.

Aluminium oxi nitride, it exists under the brand name alon, a very niche product tho. A lot more shatter proof than glass afaik, like, a bullet resistant window needs a third of the thickness, and harder, although not as hard as saphire
The Armor 24 sounds like a groundbreaking smartphone with its ultra-resistant features and that massive 22,000 mAh battery. A little bulky for some, but the added durability and ruggedness are unparalleled. This would definitely come in handy for outdoor adventures.

Zack, when are you making a smart phone? Your incredible knowledge of phones, inside and out, should clearly be a collaboration with someone to make a "phone for everyone" doesn't have to be fancy, just repairable. *Special edition* comes with removeable battery and micro sd? Turn the industry upside down.
Nice seeing that strobe light warning with plenty of time to get out of full screen. Even as someone who doesn't have issues with strobe lights, that would've been annoying full screen in a dimly lit room right before bed time.
I own 4 x Ulefone Armor rugged phones. Two of them have thermal cameras - an amazing tool to have on a phone, one of them has a built in walkie talkie UHF transceiver built in. They all have huge batteries. I love these phones, I buy most of their Armor iterations that get produced
They also have model with Flir. It's great work phone for manual labor jobs and/or traveling. Both night vision and flir can be useful if you spend nights outdoors.
Honestly. I have had this phone for about a month now. I use about 20% of battery per day in a 12hr work shift. Charge it about every 3 days. Has been dropped several times. No damage or scratches.
Wow! M-a șocat maxim acest video! În sfârșit, un test real. Da, e super acest telefon. Acest video face cât alte zeci de materiale video de la alte persoane.
I really think that for a rugged phone the best combination is a plastic screen that won't crack and a glass screen protector that won't scratch as easily
Transparent steel has also been developed. I imagine it must be heavier than the aluminum, but ever since I heard about transparent aluminum back in 2018 (or 19?) I really, really wanted to see phone manufacturers try to do something with it.
Sapphire glass **IS** the transparent aluminum. It is pretty tough, and used in fancy watch faces primarily. As mentioned in the video, a few phones have had sapphire screens.
I eagerly await the day where ‘scratches at level 7, with deeper grooves at level 8’ becomes the norm
With these prices we're paying that SHOULD be the default

Nice seeing that strobe light warning with plenty of time to get out of full screen. Even as someone who doesn't have issues with strobe lights, that would've been annoying full screen in a dimly lit room right before bed time.
I so much never wanted you to review an ulefone. Now their price is gonna spike.
Time to switch manufacturer, again.

It would be cool if it could also work as a two-way radio
Literally every phone can do that. You just need an app.
This is what I love about android. There is a segment for every use case.
I own 4 x Ulefone Armor rugged phones. Two of them have thermal cameras - an amazing tool to have on a phone, one of them has a built in walkie talkie UHF transceiver built in. They all have huge batteries. I love these phones, I buy most of their Armor iterations that get produced
Construction workers dream phone
Just don't drop it. Thing goes terminal velocity into a crater... or whatever is in the way.
Special opps in wakanda😂😂 a good one jerry
Worlds most durable phone
and yet still scratches at a level 6 with deeper groves at a level 7.
Ikr. Pretty sad to see.
Although this phone begs for Sapphire screen, it would probably jack up the price too high for most people who actually buy these phones.
I am going to play all the audios from his videos in all spa centers . . . so relaxing and calming
They also have model with Flir. It's great work phone for manual labor jobs and/or traveling. Both night vision and flir can be useful if you spend nights outdoors.
5:14: It successfully passed the bend test but my fingers didn't 😂😂😂
That's a phone I wouldn't drop. I mean because my leg would be in the way 😂😂😂
Nor forget either
3:48 "but it still takes 2 hours to charge the battery" I can charge my 5000 mAh battery in an hour with 80 watts, its very much impressive
Yeah. 22,000 mah. With that calculation, it should take 4.5 hours. 😅 not bad
If the night vision camera doesn't seem useful to you, Ulefone also has other models with FLIR thermal cameras built in as well.
The first angelic chorus "HALLELUJAH" nearly chocked me
I'm waiting for iPhone 16 durability testing
0:20 FLAC player users: first time?
Now that’s a Texas Instrument
Watching on my rugged younger brother Armor 22❤
6600mAh, can last a while week with light use🎉
Honestly. I have had this phone for about a month now. I use about 20% of battery per day in a 12hr work shift. Charge it about every 3 days. Has been dropped several times. No damage or scratches.
0:20 that's what she said!
He said, more like.
What she ll say
Ey ey ey let him cook 💀😄
The pocket brick is a good defense device. To bludgeon your foes.
It's an AD BAIT channel! It's a scam!
@@wstlndiesel yes you are
5:20 - Nokia: Are you sure about that?!
The Nokia 3310 isn't a smartphone so it doesn't count as he specified smartphone.
@@Mahkloompah I was clearly making a joke
Wow! M-a șocat maxim acest video! În sfârșit, un test real. Da, e super acest telefon. Acest video face cât alte zeci de materiale video de la alte persoane.
I really think that for a rugged phone the best combination is a plastic screen that won't crack and a glass screen protector that won't scratch as easily
2:10 But sapphire is transparent aluminium...
sapphires are made from aluminum oxide not pure aluminum
@@michealpersicko9531 You are technically correct.
3:47 That's good enough i guess for 22000mAh battery
Yes even my 20000mah power bank took at least 4-6 hours with fast charger
how is this phone only around 400-500$
Lower-tier chipset (12nm 2GHz processor), and low profit margin.
Try to check DooGee s100 Pro
In general - the same phone and even more surprising price
Phone flashlight done got a refractory period 😭🙏
I bought this cell phone, and despite its immense weight, I am very satisfied with it. And now with your video I know how it is built. thanks
Nokia 3310: Finally, worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary!
Still weaker than a Nokia 3310
If this joke ain't older than all of us combined.
Yeah I own one and dropped it 4 story’s with my friends. It was unscathed.
I still play snake on mine. Though I have had to replace the battery once.
You can smash 3310 with this phone, tbh
2:25 Now I'm curius about transparent aluminum !!
Watch Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
… and it later became reality.
It’s called aluminum oxynitride
But Star Trek did it first! 😂
Transparent steel has also been developed. I imagine it must be heavier than the aluminum, but ever since I heard about transparent aluminum back in 2018 (or 19?) I really, really wanted to see phone manufacturers try to do something with it.
Sapphire glass **IS** the transparent aluminum.
It is pretty tough, and used in fancy watch faces primarily.
As mentioned in the video, a few phones have had sapphire screens.
I dig it. I'm tired of treating my phones like they're made of... glass.
This, but with Fairphone reparability is literally my dream setup. Looks awesome, will seriously consider it whenever my current phone dies.
