Armor 28 Ultra Thermal Speaker/call issues

Hello everyone,

Quite literally just unboxed my armor 28 ultra! It's a VERY fast phone, but I got a phone call and immediately was told the echo on SpeakerPhone was horrible.

Combined with the tinny loudspeaker, that sounds much worse than the 18T Ultra that I am comparing it to, it makes speaker calls or playing anything out loud a pretty poor experience.

I saw a post about a year ago with people also having speaker/microphone/call issues and can't find any updates that it was fixed or someone found the issue?

Currently updated everything software related, but I'm not sure if the speaker really is that much worse than the previous models or if possibly I have a blown speaker. Especially since it's almost all highs and no lows.

Appreciate any insight, I contacted Ulefone in hopes of maybe being sent a new loudspeaker or exchanging the phone. But $900 for a phone that you can't make speaker calls on or play audio out loud is not something I'm willing to do.

Anyone using ulefone without screen protection?

I ordered a screen protector online, but it takes a long while to arrive.

Anyone using a phone without it? Is the screen strong without it?

How to disable a bad quality"dynamic loudspeaker boost" of Ulefone Armor?

I've just bought Ulefone Armor 33 Pro, the one with two screens and a big loudspeaker on the back. And that rear loudspeaker sounds weird. 😣

It sounds as a bad audio-anticompression: as if the phone tries to amplify loud sounds even more, but with a delay of 100-200 millis. That noticeably changes the volume of the music all the time in the middle of the track.

NOTE! It only happens for the big rear loudspeaker. Everything sounds smooth when I play the same track through the headphone speaker (I used the Earpiece app).

It's easy to reproduce in a few minutes: construct a test file in Audacity, play it from a mobile phone, record the sound and compare.

What I've got looks like this:

Am I the only one with this problem? Or is that some known Ulefone "feature"?
Can it be fixed somehow?
Any ideas welcome!

PS: Audacity step-by-step if someone wants to try it too:

  1. Open Audacity;
  2. Generate/Tone: Sine, 440 Hz, amplitude=0.8, duration=0.5s;
  3. Skip to the end (the "End" key);
  4. Generate/Tone: Sine, 550 Hz, amplitude=0.2, duration=0.5s;
  5. copy that several times: Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C, End, Ctrl+V, End, Ctrl+V, End, Ctrl+V, End, Ctrl+V;
  6. Select/All; Track/Mix/Mix and Render; File/Export Audio: to computer as a .wav file (defaults are fine: Mono, 44100Hz, 16bit PCM).

Transfer the file to the mobile phone and record its playback:

  1. Press "Mute" button on that test "Audio 1" track.
  2. Tracks/Add New/Mono Track; Skip to start ("Home" key);
  3. "Audio Setup" button : Recording Channels = 1 (Mono)
  4. Press Record("R"); play the "test wav file" on the phone next to your mic; Press Stop;
  5. Select/Region/Track Start to End (or double-click in the middle of the recording); Effects/Volume and Compression/Normalize: Apply.

Optionally repeat the same through Earpiece:

  1. Press "Mute" button on the "Audio 2" recording;
  2. Tracks/Add New/Mono Track; Skip to start ("Home" key);
  3. Enable playback through Earpiece on the mobile phone;
  4. Press Record("R"); play the "test wav file" on the phone; Press Stop;
  5. Select/Region/Track Start to End (or double-click in the middle of the recording); Effects/Volume and Compression/Normalize: Apply.

The latest update for Armor 29 ultra comes with a jumpscare

Just installed the update, and now apparently my Dimensity 9300 got replaced with a "Helio G25 8 cores at 2000 MHz".

Just in case, i installed the fake device test app to make 100% sure i have the SoC that i paid for.

What the heck is going on at Ulefone HQ? Do they even test these updates before rolling them out?

Ulefone Armor 34 Pro+ — does the microSD slot support exFAT and files over 4 GB?

​

Hey guys, I’m considering buying the Ulefone Armor 34 Pro+ (16 GB / 512 GB), but I want to confirm something about the microSD support before buying.

I’ve seen reports about some other Ulefone Armor phones having problems with exFAT, meaning the SD card has to be FAT32 and therefore has the stupid 4 GB individual file-size limit.

Can anyone who actually owns an Armor 34 Pro or Armor 34 Pro+ confirm:

Does it read/write exFAT-formatted microSD cards?

Have you successfully copied a single file larger than 4 GB to/from the SD card?

What size/card are you using (512 GB, 1 TB, 2 TB, etc.)?

Does Android let you format the card as exFAT itself, or did you format it on a PC?

I’m specifically interested in real-world confirmation from an owner, rather than the advertised “supports up to 2 TB” specification.

Thanks.
