Around that rear display sits the Infinite Halo 2.0 lighting ring, which gives clear visual alerts for calls, messages, charging, and music, all of which can be surprisingly handy when conditions are noisy or visibility is poor.
Armor 30 Pro has a massive 12,800mAh battery is designed for long shifts, and long days outdoors, delivering multiple days of use on a single charge.
When it does need topping up, 66W fast charging means you don’t have to wait too long, and wired reverse charging means it can power up other devices when nothing else is available.
At the heart of the phone is the MediaTek Dimensity 7300X 5G chipset, backed by 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, with room to expand up to 2TB.
The 6.95-inch FHD+ display runs at 120Hz and is protected by Gorilla Glass 5.
As you’d expect (or hope) this phone is built to take some serious punishment. IP68, IP69K, and MIL-STD-810H ratings mean it’s ready for heavy rain, dust, drops, and harsh environments.
Add underwater photography, night vision, a powerful 118dB speaker, and Android 14, and you’ve got a tough phone that’s clearly designed for extreme conditions.
