Design-wise, the X5B Plus sports a sleek and modern look, with a plastic matte finish back and sturdy frame that gives it a premium feel.

The smooth 90Hz refresh rate ensures a fluid responsive experience whether you're scrolling, watching videos, or engaging in light gaming. Under the hood, the X5B Plus is powered by a mid-range processor, the MediaTek Helio G36, which provides steady performance for daily apps and popular mobile games. However, it may not be able to handle high-graphics games like PUBG and Mobile Legends. The phone's camera setup is capable, with a 50MP primary sensor that captures sharp detail shots in good lighting. The additional auxiliary lens enhances video quality, and the 5MP front-facing camera takes good selfies.

Ulefone Armor 15

The Ulefone Armor 15 is a rugged smartphone that boasts impressive features at an affordable price. The device's design is unique, with two rubber flaps on top that conceal built-in wireless earbuds. These earbuds connect to the phone and can be used for hands-free calls, music streaming, and more. They are always charged and stored within the phone, eliminating the need for a separate charging case. The Armor 15 has a 5.45-inch IPS screen with a 720p resolution, which is decent but not exceptional. The device's performance is powered by the Mediatek G35 CPU, paired with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. While it's capable of running most applications, it's not the fastest phone on the market, with an Antutu score of around 130,000. The camera setup includes a main camera, ultra-wide camera, and selfie camera, but don't expect high-quality images from these cameras. The phone also features an NFC chip for contactless payments and a GPS unit that takes a few seconds to find your location. While the Armor 15 has some impressive features, such as its wireless earbuds and speakers, it's not the fastest or most powerful smartphone out there. However, considering its affordable price, it's hard to criticize it too harshly. Overall, the Ulefone Armor 15 is a solid choice for those looking for a rugged phone with unique features at an budget-friendly price.
