Enjoy next-level photography enhanced by the Samsung ISOCELL HM2, a 1/1.52" sensor that incorporates ISOCELL Plus and Smart-ISO technologies to deliver much more light and detail. Additionally, with 9-in-1 pixel binning for low-light performance, the 108MP sensor can capture sharp and vivid images as well as crisp videos, day or night.
8MP Super Night Vision 2.0
Everything in the dark is clearly visible thanks to Infrared Night Vision 2.0. The 8MP night vision camera with two IR LEDs is an upgrade from the previous version and allows you to navigate and easily see targets in low-light or no-light areas, making it the perfect companion when you go out for the night.
6.58” 120Hz FHD+ Display
On the 6.58-inch screen with Full HD+ resolution (1080 x 2408) with vibrant colors and clear sharpness, everything looks great and comfortable to the eyes. The 120 Hz screen refreshes twice as often to offer smooth scrolling of web pages and animations, with a fast 240 Hz touch sampling rate response speed that takes your gaming to new heights.
Corning Gorilla Glass 5
Designed tougher but thinner than regular glass, Corning Gorilla Glass 5 provides superior protection against drops, bumps, and damage from everyday use, while allowing for a thin and visibly sleek design for the Armor 17 Pro. In laboratory tests, the 1.1 mm thick glass can survive drops onto hard surfaces from 1.5 meters and also offers 2 times greater scratch resistance.
IP68 & IP69K
No case required
Designed with a shatter-resistant screen, military-grade body, and sturdy frame, the Armor 17 Pro offers reliability to redefine your work and play. It meets IP68 and IP69K ratings for resistance to dust ingress, high temperature, and high-pressure water, and is certified to military standards to withstand shocks from all faces, edges, and corners.
MediaTek Helio G99
A MediaTek Helio G series chipset debuts with an extremely efficient 6nm process for the Armor 17 Pro. Inside the Helio G99 is an octa-core CPU with 2 Arm Cortex-A76 performance cores clocked up to 2.2 GHz and a powerful Arm Mali-G57 GPU, providing superior 3D graphics capabilities and a smoother gaming experience than ever before.
Up to 13GB memory
The 8 GB of RAM and up to 5 GB of virtual RAM allow more applications to run simultaneously with absolute speed and smoothness in your hands. The 256 GB of internal storage and the microSD card up to 2 TB provide ample space for apps, files, photos, and videos, making it easy to download and share games.
66W Fast Charging
With Superfast Charge 66W, the large 5380mAh battery can be charged to 38% in just 10 minutes, which is 60% faster than a regular 20W. Additionally, the charger, charging cable, and phone adopt a power management chip to prevent overcharging or overheating of the battery.
15W Wireless Charging
Reverse charging support
Charging your phone becomes safer and easier with 15 W wireless charging. Additionally, the Reverse Charge feature allows you to charge another phone, watch, or headphones simply by placing them on the back of the Armor 17 Pro. No cables, no mess, just a stronger sense of technology.

Important information
Specifications are collected from official manufacturer websites. Please verify the specifications before proceeding with your final purchase. If you notice any problem you can

This phone is really sturdy and would be very good in everything if it didn't freeze. At first, it didn't freeze, but now that a few months have passed, it freezes constantly - you try to make a call and wait, and absolutely nothing happens, you try to go online and absolutely nothing happens, this lasts from a few seconds to 1-2 minutes, very frustrating!
If it didn't have this problem, I would recommend it immediately, but since it freezes and doesn't work gradually, the phone becomes very problematic! I read on Google other opinions worldwide, and it seems to be a known issue for this phone. I do not recommend it to anyone - it's a shame, if this problem didn't exist, it would be very good!
Another major disadvantage it has is that there are no cases available for this phone, which means you constantly touch the screen if you have it in your hands, causing the webpage you have open to change constantly, which is also very frustrating!
Attention, no warranty is provided for water damage. The phone, as a phone, is satisfactory but it is not water-resistant. It is advertised as IP68, but when I put it in water, it filled with water. The worst part is that the Dicarto store does not provide warranty for water damage, even though the phone is advertised as water-resistant, so I lost 350 euros. If the phone is not waterproof, it is not worth its money because it is very heavy and it is not worth carrying such weight if it cannot be submerged in water.
This particular mobile phone replaced a Samsung S9 plus. As far as speed is concerned, the feeling it gives me is that it is faster and smoother in switching between applications. The 8GB of memory seems inexhaustible, as does the capacity of the phone (256GB). In the old one, I had almost filled up the 64GB it had, and here I have only filled up a quarter. As for the camera, it is good, but maybe not as good as a branded one. In bright conditions, it is very good and I like their quality. The operating system is fresh and without bloatware, but maybe it could use some more freshness. Personally, it doesn't bother me since I have it more for work and less for games. The battery, although not top for a rugged phone, is sufficient and a pleasant change not to have to charge it every day. In the first few days of playing with it more, I can't manage to get it below 50%, and I believe with normal use, it can easily last three days. Lastly, what I like about this phone is that it doesn't look rugged, you can easily mistake it for a regular phone, even though it is a bit heavier due to the larger battery. Of course, I would like it to have a slightly lower price, since you can find it cheaper from imports, but I chose to buy it from the authorized dealer for support in case of damage. I will provide a more detailed update after using it more extensively.
Coming from the Blackview 9500 Plus, the Armor 17 Pro is a significant upgrade in all aspects except for the battery and video.
The feel of the device's dimensions does not reflect the category it belongs to. The screen has sufficient brightness with up to 120Hz refresh rate, unfortunately not automatic, which would have had a decisive impact on energy saving.
The sound quality is really good, as well as the processor. For someone who is not looking to replace their PlayStation with a mobile phone, there won't be any problems.
The photo quality is above average for its category. It takes photos with the main 12MP camera, reaching up to 108 with an option. I will provide 4 photos, two at 12 and two at 108, as well as one with the 16MP front camera.
The absence of 4K video is a serious drawback, as well as image stabilization. On the other hand, the night mode camera is exceptional, taking photos with towels in absolute darkness.
I still don't have an opinion on durability because the device is new.
