www.ulefone.com/products/armor-24?_pos=1&_sid=d1afaadc7&_ss=rHad to get a new phone. Old one is outdated and can't find an android update or have the tech skills to force one. Even I could I still was looking at needing a new one. Found on Amazon during prime day so got $100 off and a 7% discount and the holster. Specs are in the link and this thing is THICK! The pics are deceptive. It's almost as thick as my thumb. Bet y'all thought it was a new rock toy didn't ya?

Geez Louise, Bry. How much does that beast weigh? I scrolled through the specs but didn't see it.

It’s about as thick as my iPhone in a safety case —- so when I drop it, it won’t be damaged. Enjoy!

Geez Louise, Bry. How much does that beast weigh? I scrolled through the specs but didn't see it. Looked it up. Says "phone weighs 647g and is 28mm thick".
Some bad reviews about not being compatible with some phone companies and poor reception and internet connectivity.
If they fix the issues, looks like a good deal, especially with the low price.

As far as connectivity and not working with some carriers, I've never experienced it. We use Verizon and I just swap my sim card over and it works. When I lost my last phone at the beginning of the COVID vacation, I called their help line and was put in action in 15 minutes. Typically, the companies that are incompatible are AT&T, I think T-Mobile and the pay as you go companies. From what I've read it'll even work with Mint Mobile.
The weight is only a problem for the phone holder in my truck. I grabbed a belt holster and silicone cover for it since it will get knocked around at work. All together, with Prime Day discounts, I'm at around $375 for the phone & kit.
Going on day 4 with 30 hrs of Spotify, downloading my apps etc etc, and still haven't hit 50% on the battery yet. That's the main reason I got it since some of the places I want to rockhound can be a bit remote.
Now I gotta learn how to use the GPS apps it comes with.

.... but does it come with a UV bulb? No but it has a night vision camera,🤪. I have jokingly offered to creep on some of buddies from work with it. No takers yet. |
