Ulefone is a brand famous for its rugged devices and we visited the company’s booth to see its latest behemoth: the Armor 23 Ultra.
This smartphone has a huge battery, powerful cameras and a flagship chipset. Most impressive is the under-display selfie camera, making it the first fully rugged phone with such a feature. The company was also proud to announce that the Armor 23 Ultra carries two-way satellite messaging, which makes this device extremely useful in harsh conditions in the middle of nowhere.
Every Ulefone we’ve handled is a hefty device, and the Armor 23 Ultra is no stranger to this feature. The massive body acts as extra protection for the fragile internals, and while it’s heavier than other Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 phones, it’s significantly lighter than other Armor products.
Speaking of the chipset, that’s not the only high-level specification. The 6.67-inch AMOLED screen features Full HD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate, and more importantly, it lacks the massive bezels we’re used to seeing on rugged phones. The storage is 1TB and there is also 16GB of RAM, which can be artificially expanded up to 8GB more.

The trio of cameras are vertically aligned: the 108MP main is in the center, the 64MP ultra-wide is at the top, and the 64MP periscope telephoto is at the bottom. It looks a lot like what Samsung has implemented in its latest Ultra devices, and the similarity of the name is probably no coincidence.

The selfie camera is only 16MP and the way it is hidden under the panel makes for a smooth browsing and content streaming experience. We certainly liked how the camera stays hidden behind the OLED.
We weren’t able to test the phone’s battery life or performance, but the company did say that the 7,000mAh battery supports 120W fast charging. This would make the Ulefone Armor 23 Ultra one of the best certified flagships. IP68 MIL-STD-810H which can resist.
