Ulefone has just dropped the first hands-on video for its newly released Ulefone Armor X16 Pro, and it’s already turning heads. Rugged on the outside but surprisingly refined in the hand, this latest addition to the Armor X lineup dares to defy expectations, most notably by pairing a massive 10,360mAh battery with a body that’s impressively slim and ergonomic.
You can check out the hands-on here:
A Powerful Smartphone That Does Not Sacrifice Visuals
The Armor X16 series comes in two models: the standard Armor X16 and the feature-packed Armor X16 Pro. Both share the same monster battery. It’s the largest ever in the Armor X range! However, what’s most impressive is how these phones manage to stay light and comfortable to use. This is a phone built to survive days off the grid without feeling like a brick in your pocket.
And Ulefone didn’t stop at battery life. The X16 series includes infrared night vision that works! It lets you shoot clear photos and video even in total darkness.
The phone has a built-in 133-lumen flashlight with three brightness settings. Furthermore, there is a dedicated button for the flashlight that is very convenient during sudden blackouts.
Dystopian Design with a Purpose
Visually, the Armor X16 series embraces a raw, rugged aesthetic inspired by post-apocalyptic landscapes.
Available in two standout finishes—Wasteland Shadow (gray) and Sand Dune (brown). The octagonal body design gives off serious sci-fi vibes while staying functional and grippy in tough conditions.
Meet the Flagship: Armor X16 Pro
If you want the best of the best, the Armor X16 Pro is where it’s at. It’s got a generous 6.56-inch display with a silky-smooth 120Hz refresh rate, perfect for gaming or just making everything feel fast and fluid. Under the hood, it runs on the powerful MediaTek Dimensity 6300 5G chip, backed by up to 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage.
On the camera front, you get a sharp 64MP main lens, a 25MP night vision camera, and a dedicated macro shooter for up-close details. Plus, the addition of an IR Blaster means you can use it to control devices around your home. And yes—it ships with Android 15, making it future-proof right out of the box.
The More Accessible Sibling: Armor X16
The standard Ulefone Armor X16 shares the same rugged DNA but takes a slightly more modest approach. It features a 90Hz display, runs on the efficient MediaTek Helio G91 processor, and offers up to 12GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. Camera-wise, you’re still looking at a solid 48MP main sensor and a 20MP night vision camera, making it a reliable workhorse for everyday use.
A Rugged Phone That Doesn’t Make You Compromise
With the Armor X16 series, Ulefone is making a clear statement: you shouldn’t have to choose between endurance, performance, and comfort. Whether you’re venturing off-grid, working in harsh environments, or just tired of charging your phone every night, the X16 and X16 Pro deliver the best of all worlds, without cutting corners.
