Most of the people around their mid-20s may not even
remember that there was a time without smartphones and that clamshell phones
were a big hit. But for users over 30 years old, flip phones have always had a
soft spot in their hearts even after the advent of smartphones. And there’s
still a significant number of users who’d like to have one as a secondary -or
even primary- device. The Chinese manufacturer knows that and they are
introducing the Ulefone Armor Flip that is a rugged flip phone, ergonomically
designed, incorporating a large-button keypad for ease of use along with a big,
1200mAh battery and dual SIM/dual standby support.
As an Armor Series member, the Armor Flip is a
rugged feature phone featuring IP68/IP69K protection grade as well as
MIL-STD-810G certification, which guarantee its durability and enable it to
handle different complex, severe using environments. The large battery is good
enough for 13 days of standby time or 8 hours of continuous talk time. It is
designed ergonomically to be easier to handle and the keypad sports large
buttons to make typing messages or dialing numbers easy. As you can see, it is
suitable both for children and elder people.
Besides the rugged features, there’s also a 1.3MP
high definition camera for basic photography and it comes with an integrated
headset-free FM radio as well. What’s more, there is a microSD card slot that
lets you increase storage to 32GB more while the dual SIM/dual standby function
makes it possible for you to use 2 separate numbers at the same time.
It’s said that the Armor Flip will be officially
launched at the end of July. So far that’s all the details we know about it and
the exact price will be revealed shortly before it hits the marker.
