Resistance to the order of the day
If you are familiar with ruggedized mobiles, you already know what the Ulefone Armor 11 has in store for us. Going into details, it is a mobile made up of light metal alloys and rubber and plastic parts that reinforce and absorb the impacts of the most vulnerable areas. of the device (the corners).
The terminal is made to withstand harsh environmental conditions and withstand use and abuse. Therefore, it has been subjected to harsh tests conferred by the military standard MIL-STD-810G , that to mention the IP68 + IP69K rating . In other words, this means that the Ulefone Armor 11 can withstand up to 30 minutes underwater at 1.5 meters depth, as well as being able to survive drops from 1.2 meters in height and direct impacts to the screen, which, by the way , is protected by the latest generation Corning Gorilla Glass.
Speaking of the screen, this is a 6.1-inch LCD panel with HD + resolution of 1,560 x 720 pixels , 19.5: 9 aspect ratio and notch in the shape of a drop of water. It is a panel with low resolution for a terminal of this price, there is no doubt about that, but what it does not have in definition it makes up for with resistance to the elements, including fire. The manufacturer ensures that we can use it with gloves on, which can be convenient in some situations
It is worth mentioning the presence of a fingerprint reader on the back and a customizable side button that can be used to call emergencies, activate the camera, use the flashlight, among other things.
With that said, it is a bulky and heavy terminal, although not as much as its predecessors, so we cannot complain much in this regard.
Competent hardware worthy of the mid-range : Ulefone Armor 11, Ulefone’s most ambitious and resistant mobile
Many rugged terminals tend to neglect this section either to cut prices or by simple omission. Fortunately, the Ulefone Armor 11 is not one of these cases. A competent Dimensity 800 5G chip from MediaTek provides you with performance worthy of the upper-middle range, not to mention next-generation 5G network connectivity.
Accompanying the set we have a not inconsiderable 8GB of RAM along with 256GB of internal storage . Unfortunately we cannot add more as there is no Micro-SD slot, but at least the amount installed is decent.
A respectable 5,200mAh battery brings the Ulefone Armor 11 to life, giving you up to days of normal use on a full charge. And as an added bonus, the battery is compatible with 10W Qi wireless charging . The normal load is 18W, so it is not very fast, but not slow either.
In another vein, the operating system of the moment is Android 10, but the manufacturer promises an update via OTA to Android 11 guaranteed. At the connectivity level it has everything we could ask for, such as dual band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, VoLTE, GPS, Glonass, Beidou, Galileo and NFC to put the cherry on the cake.
Camera : Ulefone Armor 11, Ulefone’s most ambitious and resistant mobile
On a photographic level, the Ulefone Armor 11 stands out in its due market segment, although not necessarily only for its quality, but for its night vision. Going into the matter, it consists of a penta rear camera, headed by a 48MP main sensor, a 13MP wide-angle lens (125 °), a 2MP macro lens (up to 4cm of focus), a 2MP depth sensor and a camera. 20MP equipped with infrared LEDs that provide night vision to the set.
Lastly, a high-resolution 16MP front camera can capture minute details with decent quality. In addition, it supports facial recognition and beautification through AI.
The main set can shoot 4K video at 30FPS and does a good job of capturing photos and videos during the day, but not as good at night. It is important to note that the night camera does not provide a night mode or anything like that; It does what its name literally implies, that is, seeing in the dark, but that doesn’t necessarily translate into eye-catching photos at night.
