UlefoneArmor 21 Rugged Phone, Infinite Halo 122dB Speaker, MTk Helio G99 16GB+256GB, 64MP+24MP Night Vision Camera, 6.58" FHD+ 120Hz Screen, 9600mAh, Android 14, IR Blaster/NFC/Dock Charging

It's finally time to upgrade from my Blu G90 Pro, so my review is in comparison to my old phone running Android 10. Purchased two, so my husband has one as well. I got this mil spec phone more for him because he's always dropping his phone and breaking the screen cover. However it's got features I like as well. I like for us both to have the same model so if there's an issue I can compare the two easily.Things I like:Battery life - lasts all day and I'm a heavy user of apps.Customizable side switch - you can choose three different settings depending on if you push the button once, twice or long press. I have mine set to open Gmail on one click ( with phone unlocked), flashlight with double click which is handy when I need it quickly and it works with the phone locked.USB port and 3mm jack are covered to keep dust and water out.Accessory charging cradle recommended because ports are covered.Cradle is short, so there is room for a pop socket mid back of the phone if you need it.Camera is good, night vision is awesome 😎Android 14 ROM with minimal bloatware. Some of the preinstalled apps are actually useful especially if you are a maker. Things like camera measuring, protractor and level. There's an attachment connector on the side for other tools as well like a scope sold separately.Rotation is fast with the RAM speed. Overall the phone is very responsive.Bluetooth works well with multiple devices running simultaneously.The meh -Ring light is cool but it doesn't work all the time for me. I might have to play with the settings.Dura speed can suppress apps in the background and if you need notifications from them you need to turn the switch on in dura speed to allow the apps to run normally. It might take trial and error to figure out what apps you need to allow.Volume settings are touchy and it's hard to get the volume just right. The sound is either too quiet or too loud all the time.Sound quality is average. I'd say it sounds like a mid priced Bluetooth speaker.Phone is heavy! But the weight I'm sure is because of the shock protection. I got used to the weight in a couple of days of use.The bad -Not really much to say here and most of the bad is related to Android 14 not the phone.Android 14 settings are a little more difficult to find than in prior versions. I've been an Android user since 2.0 cupcake so I've used almost every release.When swiping sometimes buttons get activated because they are very sensitive.There is a function where I can close all open apps, but without the on screen square close, home and back buttons at the bottom it's hard to find it. I'm not sure how to activate the feature. I've seen it but not sure what I did to make it come up.Somehow Android 14 dropped the link on home screen widget which was a feature I still want.So in all, it's a solid phone. The only thing I wish it had was 5G, but that's ok for now. I don't see 4G going anywhere anytime soon.

Order this Phone for my brother, he loved it. And at the end is all that matters, works like any other Android phone. Good quality, it’s a bit Heavy for my taste, buts not for me. It definitely works for him.

So first off this phone is nice and loud. I can actually hear the speakerphone when I am driving and it is nice. The picture quality in fhd is amazing with vivid colors that are very captivating. Camera quality is nice and even features an underwater camera. The screen protector has broke on my phone already but that's because I feel a bit more careless because this phone is so tuff it came with a sticker on it that said in a round about way.. "if you wish to perform an underwater test please make sure you are able to shake the water and or sand out of the speaker and crevices before performing a durability test by running it over with a bicycle or motor bike multiple times to test for strength and endurance please." Lol I couldn't believe it when I read it. I have never had a phone screen sticker on any of my new phones say that. How bout you??? Also the memory is amazing. The processor is out of this world lightning fast. It has a slight different layout than what I am used to having with the typical android. So has taken some getting used to but definitely worth the money. But because it has so many features this thing weighs a ton. About the weight of a small brick tbh. That's another reason why I keep dropping it. Also it has way cooler features than my husband's iPhone 16 however you cannot purchase any sort of case for the thing to protect it from scuffs and also to make it look pretty of course. Another thing is that it won't fit the standard phone stand of anysort because of th speaker layout on th back and the awkward thickness. But you can always spend all your money on a ulephone phone stand off of their official website. On another note which is the worst part about this phone and maybe I just haven't figured out why it's not is the fact that I can't use a fast charger on my phone and it takes forever and I mean forever to charge. And the battery doesn't last as long as it says. It's like a normal phone and only lasts a day maybe a day and a half. But hey! At least you can reverse charge other peoples phone with your phone! But then you have to take all that time to charge it up again. Lol so keep all that in mind when purchasing this phone.

Filled with unneeded apps installed as system apps which makes it impossible to uninstall. Only one of the 3 were able to be disabled. Dobest Search cannot be disabled and wants to update via Google Play. Dobest Security was able to be disabled. And Clear Master from Dobest cannot be removed or disabled.

El teléfono es muy útil posee todas las funciones descritas sirve para personas que trabajan y tienden a maltratar el celular, el mismo es fuerte y pesa un poco pero si es un buen equipo

Mala calidad en la imagen y en las fotos.

Not 2 months after I bought it, the literal selling point and mandatory to use the phone Feature quit working. Yup the main speaker no longer works, some bs. Don't buy!*****************************************Edit: so after a few days ULEFONE contacted me to help resolve this issue. Honestly unexpected and deserving of the new rating. Definitely made a believer out of me again. Customer service is top notch.
