    Flying Cloud, 09 Dec 2021Bought on pre-sale, recieved 4 days ago. Very good smartpho... moreVery good performance? According to the review it can't even get hd in Netflix. Slow response times from the screen,washed out colours on YouTube hdr .The laser isn't even accurate which makes it a gimmick. Think I'll keep my OnePlus 8 for now which lasts until I sleep . They'd have been better sticking that battery to a feature phone.

      Notice the video playback is extremely poor.

        Dayum~!
        While I am not THAT much of a power user. (I do favor flagship performance though.) this phone is quite spectacular. (And H E A V Y . . .)
        I'd like to point out another point. the screen protection. Gurilla Glass 3 is not exactly a strong screen protection. and while I very much understand it's a phone of 320$. I expected it to have GG5... if not higher.

          I'm a power consumer, this is definitely the piece of hardware for someone like me!!!

            I just bought one. It's not a bad phone. The battery lasts me 2 days on full usage. Awesome video playback. Good sound for music. Call quality on network is good. Video calling is good. The camera takes really good photos. Overall so far is a good phone. The only downside is the weight yet it's the battery.

              Bought on pre-sale, recieved 4 days ago. Very good smartphone. Finally a battery monster with very good performances.
              Only one BIG disappointment: the phone has plenty of gestures but Double Tap to Wake the screen is missing. I used that feature a lot on my other phone. I don't understand why the guys at Ulefone didn't implemented this useful feature

                This phone is great as a portable battery with the added bonus of being a phone. The fact that it can wirelessly charge other phones or accessories is such a good feature! Having an ir blaster is great as well to use as a remote control! God bless! Jesus loves you all!

                  So far I live this phone. Large battery. Great camera, and endoscope. And over all great build. If u guys make new armor 13 in the future I'll buy it. Running on 4g and 5g would be nice. Other than that.. thanks for .making this phone rugged. U have my next purchase in a couple years.

                    The armor 13 is my 3 Ulefone armor series phone, previous armor 6 & 9. I've had the phone since November 7th. The software and it's supporting hardware are substantial enough to easily run any apps I require, business or personal. The durability looks good on paper, however in practice not so much. Because of it's substantial weight the damage from dropping is substantial. All the corners are significantly scuffed and scraped up. The screen protector cracked on the second drop, the screen did last night. The drops have also shaken loose what I assume is the antenna because all calls sound like having connection issues didn't experience before. A realistic lanyard is not possible unless chemically welded to the thermoplastic polyurethane body. As with all previous Armor series the Ulefone spec case available is an expensive unfunny joke.
                    I hate that this is my review because I do love the phone. Feels great in my hand and performance is good. Heavy enough to be a self defense weapon.
                    Needs a revision that will increase durability to match the weight, gorilla glass victus maybe? Factory built-in lanyard attachment. Other than that the phone is awesome. However mine is useless with broken screen less than one month. Mixed feelings will most likely have me in another direction for a replacement.

                      Tomasz, 09 Dec 2021Unfortunately, I have been the owner of your Ulefone Power ... moreDid you returned it for repairs?

                        I've been using this phone for about 6 months and am delighted with it. Its my 3rd Ulefone Armor phone, I've had the Armor 3 before. I love that I only need to charge it once a week, if at all (using Android Auto on it in my car usually keeps it topped up). One minor critism is that it doesn't have a hole to attach a lanyard, that would be useful as I like to tether my phone to a jacket pocket so I can't drop it over board when kayaking. As an angler, I've lost count of the number of phones I've ruined by dropping them into the sea or river. The Armor phones shrug off abuse and just keep working

Even its weight on numbers isnt that bad. i have small hands, i'm not construction worker (office actually) and I dont have any problems holding it one hand for 15-20min talking.

                              "183.7x85.4x20.8mm"

                              So basically a tablet at this point. Ulefone (and other companies that aim to do rugged phones) should consider making rugged phones that people can actually put into their pocket. Most people who need a rugged phone need it for calling or texting when necessary, with occasional web browsing or GPS, they don't need 6.81" screen for games and movies.

                                Unfortunately, I have been the owner of your Ulefone Power Armor 13 phone for 9 days.
                                The phone came with a broken charger. I didn't get too sad about it. I started using my old charger from the Blackview BV9100 phone. I was just surprised that your charger is inferior to that of my old Blackview BV9100 phone.
                                The next day, the loudspeaker for listening to music began to crackle.
                                Two days later it stopped working completely. I can't listen to music or radio.
                                Then the calling speaker began to crackle. Then it stopped working completely. Now it takes turns to either crackle or not work at all.

                                  IpsDisplay, 08 Dec 2021You only mentioned CAT as an alternative... Have you guy... moremay be because ulefone sells its phone internationaly

                                    OK price for the specs, just what an industrial worker need. A big battery, shock-water-dust-temperature resistant and some useful sensors. no need fast processor, fancy camera, 120hz etc. Nokia xr20 priced double to this.

                                        Prefer to buy a 10.000 or 20.000 mAh than this one. This phone dedicated for a professional industrial worker who need this app tools for their daily jobs. But it's app tools not accurate either. The main selling for this phone is only it's durability and the gigantic battery endurance capacity. That's it.
