Editorial report

Ulefone Armor X9 technical sheet

The Ulefone Armor X9 suits buyers seeking a rugged phone who can accept a bulky, heavy device. Its IP68, IP69 and IP69K ratings cover water and dust protection, while MIL-STD-810G covers impacts and drops. The physical trade-off is clear: it weighs 235 g and is 13.9 mm thick. It is heavier than most phones of its time, and its thickness is among the highest.

The 5.5-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 720 × 1440 px and a density of 293 ppi, but it covers just 63.8% of the front, among the lowest screen-to-body ratios of its time. This version pairs 3 GB of RAM with 32 GB of eMMC 5.1 storage; the phone is also sold in 4 GB / 64 GB and 6 GB / 64 GB configurations. Android 11 and a 5000 mAh battery round out the basics. Its 10 W charging is slower than that of most phones launched around the same time.

The MediaTek Helio A25 and AnTuTu score of 94,000 place its performance below that of most phones of its time. The 13 MP camera resolution is also lower than that of most phone cameras of the period; the phone additionally has 2 MP macro and depth cameras. Connectivity includes NFC, Dual Nano-SIM, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou.

With a NeoScore of 3.8, this is for buyers who prioritize protection from impacts, water and dust over low weight, camera specifications and faster charging.
