Is a durable phone with a 64MP night vision camera and eSIM but only supports 4G network enough to convince users to ignore 5G smartphones in the same price range?

The most prominent feature of Armor 22 Pro is the dual rear camera system including the Sony IMX682 main camera with 64MP resolution, 1.7-inch sensor size and f/1.89 aperture. The second camera also has 64MP resolution but is designed specifically for infrared night vision, combiningIR lights and NightElf Ultra 2.0 algorithm. The front camera has 8MP resolution.
The device's configuration is based on MediaTek Helio G200 manufactured using the 6nm process, with an eight-core CPU reaching a maximum clock speed of 2.2GHz. This is a platform for 4G LTE networks, so the Armor 22 Pro does not support 5G. The device has 8GB physical RAM, two memory options of 128GB or 256GB and a microSD card slot with a maximum expansion capacity of 2TB.

The 6,600mAh battery supports 33W fast charging and 5W wired reverse charging. Ulefone claims a maximum standby time of 360 hours and a maximum talk time of 27 hours under its testing conditions. Actual duration may vary depending on usage intensity, network quality and environmental temperature.
Armor 22 Pro meets IP68, IP69K standards and MIL-STD-810H certification. According to testing conditions announced by Ulefone, the IP68 standard allows the device to withstand a maximum depth of 1.5m for no more than 30 minutes. Water and dust resistance is not permanent and may decrease over timeDamage caused by liquid is not covered by the company's warranty.
The device has an integrated eSIM next to two physical Nano SIM slots. When eSIM is enabled, the second physical SIM slot will be disabled. The ability to use eSIM, VoLTE and two 4G SIMs at the same time depends on the network operator and the region. This is something buyers in Vietnam need to check before placing an international order.
Android 16 comes pre-installed with a pure Android interface and no ads as announced by Ulefone. The device also supports NFC, Google Pay in compatible markets, side fingerprint sensor, facial recognition, 3.5mm headphone port, infrared device control and GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou and QZSS navigation systems.
With a body 15mm thick and weighing 324g, Armor 22 Pro is still larger and heavier than a regular smartphone, but relatively compact in the group of ultra-durable phones. The opening price is about 6.34 million VND, creating a notable advantage thanks to the 64MP night vision camera, large battery, eSIM and high protection standards. In return, users must consider that the device only supports 4G, has a large weight, and the actual price in Vietnam may be higher after taxes and import costs.
