Most of today's rugged smartphones can look very, very "rugged" and bulky, like a rock. The truth is, while many consumers rely on these phones for heavy duty work, they still want them to be smaller and lighter. So, is there a rugged phone that looks stylish for everyday use? The answer is YES.

Fortunately, with the release of Ulefone's best-ever Armor 17 Pro, the three biggest problems when choosing a phone have been solved. Protection, performance and style. The new flagship Armor 17 Pro offers rock-solid reliability and incredibly powerful performance in a thin and light body.

An indestructible smartphone with a more refined design

Ulefone's latest flagship has a great sleek design for business purposes. For a phone with a 6,58-inch display, the Armor 17 Pro is slim, sleek and remarkably light at 290g. That's significantly less than the industry average of 400g. And its matte black finish gives it a sense of elegance and calm.

When it comes to durability, the Armor 17 Pro is an absolute monster! It has a water and dust rating of IP68 and IP69K, as well as a MIL-STD-810G standard for protection against shocks, drops and extreme temperatures. Corning Gorilla Glass 5 is also added for better protection.

• DROP-PROOF: It can withstand a drop of up to 1,5m onto concrete.
• DUST PROOF: All ports and small openings are well protected from dust and dirt.
• WATER RESISTANT: It is easy to clean and can be submerged up to 1,5m for 30 minutes.

The most advanced camera system in the industry

Can you imagine a 108-megapixel camera being built into a "rugged" type of smartphone? Even in mainstream smartphones, 108-megapixel cameras are still rare. However, the Armor 17 Pro has done so for the first time in the history of protected mobile phones.

• 108MP MAIN CAMERA: Powerful Samsung ISOCELL HM2 sensor with fast f/1,89 aperture. Thanks to the 9-in-1 pixel combining technology, the pixel size can be increased from 0,7 microns to 2,1 microns. As a result, you can expect better low-light performance as well as faster speeds. And also more reliable combat shots.
• 8MP ULTRA WIDE ANGLE LENS: The 118 degree ultra wide angle lens does a great job of capturing and recording more beautiful scenery even on the go. Great for architectural and landscape photography.
• 8MP IR NIGHT VISION CAMERA: The upgraded night vision camera is complemented by two infrared LEDs, allowing users to easily target targets in dimly lit areas for professional use.

Great 120Hz display

The 6,58-inch FHD+ LCD display is bright with rich colors for an immersive viewing experience. With a 120Hz refresh rate, the screen can refresh 120 times per second for ultra-smooth scrolling, double that of a regular 60Hz screen. The 240Hz touch sampling rate also ensures a fast response rate for your games. If you're picky about display quality, this is the best you'll find in a rugged phone.

Crazy gaming processor

Meet Helio G99, the new MediaTek Helio G series chipset that boasts an advanced 6nm manufacturing process and gaming performance. Inside the Helio G99 is an octa-core processor with 2x Cortex-A76 2,2 GHz and 6x Cortex-A55 2,0 GHz architecture for fast data processing, as well as a powerful ARM Mali-G57 GPU running at up to 1 GHz for great 3D - graphics.

Lots of great tech features in the Armor 17 Pro

Ulefone's latest flagship is trying to stand out from other rugged smartphones and compete even with mainstream flagships.

• VIRTUAL MEMORY EXPANSION: Armor 17 Pro provides up to 13GB of RAM to support running multiple apps simultaneously without lag. A total of 8 GB of RAM + 5 GB of virtual RAM. Virtual memory expansion can be enabled or disabled in the settings.
• 66W HYPER FAST CHARGING: A coffee break is all you need to charge this phone with fast charging technology. It provides a 38% battery charge in just 10 minutes, 53% in 15 minutes and 90% in 30 minutes. At least according to Ulefone.
• 5380mAh BATTERY: In lab tests, the high-capacity 5380mAh battery provides up to 294 hours of standby time and 29 hours of continuous talk time.
• 3 CARD SLOT: Holds two SIM cards and a microSD card up to 2TB.
