The cheapest upgrade is a tempered glass screen protector that costs just $10 when bought with the phone.Ĭonsidering that the Power Armor 16 Pro costs just $160, the official $699.99 that Ulefone is asking for the Power Armor 18T does seem a bit shocking. A case increases the cost by another $25, a Wireless charging base by $25, an Endoscope by $50, and a 1000x Digital Microscope is another $50. In addition to the phone, Ulefone has a selection of accessories that can be bundled. Where can you get it? You can get it in most regions direct from AliExpress or on .uk.

How much does it cost? $570/ £620/ $AU $880 (opens in new tab).

The 18T is priced as a premium phone, and the customer mostly gets premium parts for their investment.Īs this is most likely to be a second phone for most customers, is that just too much to be a practical consideration?. The downside to having such a powerful SoC and feature set is that this is the most expensive rugged design that Ulefone makes. When you combine the ability to detect temperature distribution and having an endoscope to look at difficult-to-reach areas, the 18T starts to look like it might be ideal for those in automotive repair or similar businesses. The other notable feature of this design is that it has the same accessory port as the 17 Pro, and through that, there are various specialist accessories available, including an endoscope. On this phone, the newer FLIR 3.5 sensor offers a better resolution, achieving greater detail and clarity in the images it captures. Very often, rugged phone makers use the cheaper FLIR 2.5 sensor, which was on the CAT S60 (opens in new tab), Ulefone Armor 11T 5G (opens in new tab) and Blackview BV9800 Pro (opens in new tab), to mention just a few. We’ve seen thermal imaging before on the Cat S63 Pro, and this is the same FLIR 3.5 that is on that phone. The choice to go with the Dimensity 900 is probably more about 5G coms than anything else, but having this power is also helpful for the FLIR thermal imaging sensor. Where the 19 uses the less expensive MediaTek G99 SoC, the 18 and 18T use the 5G capable MediaTek Dimensity 900 SoC, delivering more processing power and double the GPU performance of the G99. With a retail cost of $570, phone buyers expect plenty for their money, and the 18T has the best specification we’ve seen from Ulefone so far.
