Has anyone any experience of Ulefone stuff
Seems like it'd be good for clumsy fuckers like me, and useful on building sites too
I have their power armor 18t, bought it cause it was the only rugged phone that had all the tmobile 4g and 5g antenna bands, as well as a headphone jack and sd card slot. It was a total risk as I'd never bought a Chinese phone before, but I think it may be the best phone I've ever had. (Only had Samsung and Sony phones before this)
I took it snorkeling in the ocean several times, came out completely unscathed.
My only complaint is that the thermal camera replaces a wideangle camera on the non-thermal version, which I would have realized if I'd read the specs closer.
It would probably be a gimmick for most people but I use the thermal for my job (electrical inspections) and it is as good as my other IR tools. I found it so handy I picked up another one for my field team.
I also bought an armor pad 2, and although I don't use it as much as I thought I would, it's still great on the occasions that I need it. Again, it comes in real handy on construction job sites, no need to baby it or worry about rain.
Hmm this is your only comment on the whole fediverse, and the guy below found malware on one of the installed apps
Guess I'll be giving this brand a big fuckin swerve π
I highly doubt phone companies would astroturf on lemmy though.
Fair enough, I moved to reddthat from lemmy.world recently, thus the lack of history. But it's good to be skeptical of things you read on the Internet, I understand where your head's at lol.
