The Ulefone Armor X32 Pro is coming soon (launching between April 14 and 20 for $380) and it’s the latest rugged phone that arrives with some pretty respectable specs and features.
Although it comes in three color options, the predominant hue is black, but you can get it in a variant that has some vivid green on it, or some vibrant orange elements (the third option is pure black).
While Samsung and Apple are obsessed with super-thin phones, this one is 14.5 mm thick and weighs 280 grams.
Not exactly sleek, but you’re getting a massive 5,500 mAh capacity battery cell which could – the maker claims – provide up to 300 hours of standby time.
The phone is, of course, extra durable. It can be submerged in water at a maximum depth of 1.5 metres up to 30 minutes, and has the MIL-STD-810H certification. MIL-STD-810H certification means a smartphone has passed a series of tough durability tests used by the US military to assess resistance to extreme conditions like high and low temperatures, humidity, shock, vibration, and drops.

Under the hood, there’s the MediaTek Dimensity 6300 – sure, it’s not going to win any races against the Snapdragon 8 Elite, but it comes paired with 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB storage, which can be expanded up to 2 TB via a microSD card. Take that, sleek, expensive flagships!
The display is a 5.56‑inch one that supports 90Hz refresh rate with a resolution of 720 x 1440. Ulefone claims the screen has got some fingerprint-resistant oleophobic coating, which is nice.
On the back, there’s a 64MP main camera with the Sony IMX682 sensor and a large f/1.9 aperture for better light-gathering capabilities.
There’s another snapper as well – a 25MP infrared Night Vision camera with a Sony IMX550 sensor to better see in the dark. There’s a NightElf 2.0 algorithm, which should boost and improve image quality, making the night images sharp and intricate.
Finally, there’s a 2MP macro camera, but I wouldn’t use that one too often, you know.
