Here's the Ulefone RugKing with a 9,600 mAh battery, glare flashlight, and 126 dB speaker

Ulefone will launch a new rugged smartphone called Ulefone RugKing next week. The brand hasn't officially divulged anything about it yet, but we've received the images, specs, and pricing information of the RugKing from a reliable source, telling us what to expect from this rugged smartphone.

The Ulefone RugKing will have the Unisoc T7255 SoC at the helm with 8GB of LDDR4X RAM and 256GB of UFS 2.2 storage, expandable by up to 2TB via a microSD card having a dedicated slot. The smartphone will boot Android 15, but it's unclear how many years of software updates it will receive.

The Ulefone RugKing will pack a 5.99" HD+ LCD with a 60Hz screen refresh rate and 910 nits peak brightness. Under the hood will be a 9,600 mAh battery having 18W charging support, which is pretty low considering the battery capacity.

For photography, the Ulefone RugKing will come with three cameras - 50MP primary (Samsung ISOCELL S5KJN1), 2MP macro (OmniVision OV02A10), and 8MP selfie (Samsung ISOCELL 4H8).

The smartphone will also feature a speaker on its rear with a maximum loudness of 126 dB. Additionally, it will have a glare flashlight, located on the top. The rest of the Ulefone RugKing's highlights include a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, a customizable key located on the left side frame, IP68 and IP69K ratings, and MIL-STD-810H certification. It will also come with NFC and dock charging.

The Ulefone RugKing will be 18.3mm thick, weigh 397 g, and come in a single black color. We are told it will be available for purchase in September through AliExpress for $149.99 (€130/INR13,145).
