Chinese tech firm Ulefone, best known for rugged devices like the Armor 8 Pro, has launched its latest offering, the Armor 25T Pro, a 5G smartphone featuring both thermal imaging and night vision capabilities.

The ThermoVue thermal imaging sensor offers a resolution of up to 160 x 120 pixels and a refresh rate of up to 25Hz. Ulefone says the sensor can be used for tasks such as detecting leaks, inspecting buildings, and ensuring safety during outdoor activities, but it can be put to any tasks you can think of.

The phone also comes with a ThermoVue app for capturing thermal images and videos.

Kevlar-textured back cover

The Armor 25T Pro also includes an infrared night vision camera, equipped with a 64MP OMNIVISION OV64B sensor and Ulefone's NightElf Ultra 3.0 algorithm. This allows users to capture clear images in low-light conditions, enhancing security and wildlife monitoring capabilities.

The Armor 25T Pro is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 6300 5G SoC, paired with up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. The device boasts a 6.78-inch FHD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate. It runs Android 14.

A 6500mAh battery ensures long-lasting power for all-day usage, with 33W fast charging and 30W wireless charging capabilities. In terms of connectivity, the Armor 25T Pro supports 5G and Wi-Fi 802.11ac. The device also comes with a fingerprint sensor.

Designed to be durable, the Armor 25T Pro meets IP68/IP69K and MIL-STD-810H standards. It features a Kevlar-textured back cover for added style and protection and despite its rugged build, the device maintains a slim and lightweight profile.

Armor 25T Pro is available to order from AliExpress for $299.99, which is currently 40% off the usual MSRP of $499.99. We’ve requested one so keep an eye out for our review soon.

Microsoft, Google, and Meta have borrowed EV tech for the next big thing in data centers: 1MW watercooled racks

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support Liquid cooling isn't optional anymore, it's the only way to survive AI's thermal onslaught The jump to 400VDC borrows heavily from electric vehicle supply chains and design logic Google’s TPU supercomputers now run at gigawatt scale with 99.999% uptime As demand for artificial intelligence workloads intensifies, the physical infrastructure of data centers is undergoing rapid and radical transformation. The likes of Google, Microsoft, and Meta are now drawing on technologies initially developed for electric vehicles (EVs), particularly 400VDC systems, to address the dual challenges of high-density power delivery and thermal management. The emerging vision is of data center racks capable of delivering up to 1 megawatt of power, paired with liquid cooling systems engineered to manage the resulting heat. Borrowing EV technology for data center evolution The shift to 400VDC power distribution marks a decisive break from legacy sy...

The Apple Watch ban is lifted, on appeal – but the reprieve might only be temporary

Web Hosting & Remote IT Support The Apple Watch ban story has developed quickly over the last week and a bit, and there's now a new twist: the US Court of Appeals is putting a pause on the US sales and import ban while it reviews the case, which means the Apple Watch 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2 can go back on sale for the time being.

"We are pleased the US Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit has stayed the exclusion order while it considers our request to stay the order pending our full appeal."

As per a report from South Korean outlet The Elec (via SamMobile ), mass production on a Samsung Galaxy Ring could begin as early as August, with a decision imminent on the schedule for getting the wearable manufactured and out to consumers. A full launch is slated for some point during 2024 though, rather than 2023. The nature of the device means that it'll need to clear several regulatory hurdles before it can go on sale and start tracking various vital statistics. An early 2024 launch would put the Galaxy Ring on a similar schedule to the Samsung Galaxy S24 – and it would therefore make sense to launch both gadgets at the same time, perhaps in January or February if Samsung follows its 2023 routine. The story so far Rumors ar...
