Being a high-end flagship rugged smartphone addressed to those who like to travel a lot or doing outdoor activities, besides durability and powerful performance, an excellent positioning system performance is absolutely necessary. Ulefone has equipped the Armor 7 with four navigation systems including GPS, GLONASS, Beidou and Galileo to offer accurate positioning and today they released a GPS test video on YouTube to show how good it is. Let’s see how it did.

According to the result of the GPSTest app, Armor 7 managed to “see” 42 satellites and lock into 18 of them. The accuracy level of positioning reaches 1m and according to the video, the GPS performance of Armor 7 is excellent, since it precisely tracks the road and every corner on it. Also, it quickly reroutes the path while you deviate from planned routes. Going through a tunnel, it will automatically switch to Dark Mode for better viewing and it will reconnect quickly after disconnection.

The Armor 7 comes with a 6.3″ FHD+ waterdrop screen, a triple rear camera (48MP+16MP+8MP) and 16MP selfie shooter, 8GB/128GB configuration, Qi 10W wireless charging, fingerprint and face unlock, global network bands, and NFC with Google Pay. The device is available on Banggood at a special price of $369.99. To see the rest of the Ulefone lineup, visit their official website.

Ulefone’s latest rugged flagship is the Armor 7 and has been in the market for a while with upgraded battery capacity, faster charger, upgraded processor, and new operating system over the previous gen. It sports a 5500mAh battery capacity and the company released a video to demonstrate the battery performance. Let’s check it out.

In the video, we can see that after 1.5 hours of heavy use, the battery lost just 9% of its charge. The test included half-hour use in each different actions like music playback, movie playback, and online gaming. According to this data, we can safely assume that you can use the phone for approximate 17 hours continuously before it runs out of battery! With an average user using the smartphone for about 5 hours daily, Armor 7 can go on for 3 days or even more on a single charge. This is achieved thanks to the power-efficient Helio P90 SoC as well as the good power management performed by the Android 9 Pie.

The continuously rising temperature due to climate change is a fact and it hides dangers that most of us wouldn’t imagine. One of the risks people don’t take into consideration is the exposure to high heat during the day, especially those who work or exercise outdoors. Thankfully, technology is here to aid this effort and Blackview BV9700 Pro is offering a heart rate monitor to help users protect themselves from unpleasant situations.

Prevention is better than cure and the heart rate monitor embedded to the BV9700 Pro does just that. The rugged flagship from Blackview adopts a heart rate monitor at the back of the device and all you have to do is press your finger against it and let it do its job. It’s that simple and you carry it with you all the time. Its accuracy is better than ever and it also comes with a pedometer to track the distance you run or walk.

But apart from that, the BV9700 Pro offers even more. It can be used to measure the indoor air quality and the ambient temperature and humidity level in your environment. The air quality can be detected every 4 seconds and lets you know if it is healthy enough by detecting unhealthy Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) level. Pretty handy for workers that handle solvents, work in paint shops or plastics factories.

What’s more, there is an external night vision camera available to shoot great photos and videos at night and it sports the Sony STARVIS IMX291 ultra-light sensitive CMOS sensor. This special design is for low light and night scenes. You can get much clearer pictures at night compared with other rugged phone counterparts.

Of course, the BV9700 Pro is still an excellent rugged phone with all current protection certifications and a great performer as well. It is powered by the Helio P70 octa-core SoC that delivers 13% better performance than the P60 as well as 30% lower power consumption and 20% better heat dissipation. Also, the AI processing efficiency is 10% to 30% improved. All this, combined with Andriod 9 Pie, result in an unprecedented performance for Blackview. The phone is currently on a limited offer on Aliexpress. You can get it for just $298.99 here.
