    I have their power armor 18t, bought it cause it was the only rugged phone that had all the tmobile 4g and 5g antenna bands, as well as a headphone jack and sd card slot. It was a total risk as I’d never bought a Chinese phone before, but I think it may be the best phone I’ve ever had. (Only had Samsung and Sony phones before this)

    I took it snorkeling in the ocean several times, came out completely unscathed.

    My only complaint is that the thermal camera replaces a wideangle camera on the non-thermal version, which I would have realized if I’d read the specs closer.

    It would probably be a gimmick for most people but I use the thermal for my job (electrical inspections) and it is as good as my other IR tools. I found it so handy I picked up another one for my field team.

    I also bought an armor pad 2, and although I don’t use it as much as I thought I would, it’s still great on the occasions that I need it. Again, it comes in real handy on construction job sites, no need to baby it or worry about rain.

      Guess I’ll be giving this brand a big fuckin swerve 😂

        Fair enough, I moved to reddthat from lemmy.world recently, thus the lack of history. But it’s good to be skeptical of things you read on the Internet, I understand where your head’s at lol.
