Ulefone Power Armor 19 Review

Rear cameras, photo and video samples

Ulefone Power Armor 19 has three rear cameras. The main one uses a 108MP Samsung S5KHM2 sensor with a 0.7 μm pixel size and a 1/1.52" optical format. It uses 9-in-1 pixel binning for a 2.1 μm pixel size. The camera uses a 6-element lens with an f/1.89 aperture and an 82.3° field of view. By default, it shoots 12MP photos and you have to use the High-Res shooting mode to take advantage of the full resolution of the sensor. The main camera also records QHD videos at 30 fps. The second rear camera is the 5MP Samsung S5K5E9 macro camera that offers up to 60x digital zoom. The sensor is paired to an f/3.0 lens with a 77° field of view. This camera is used when you activate the Microscope mode from the Camera app. The third unit combines an 8MP Samsung S5K4H7 sensor with a 118.8° ultra-wide lens and an f/2.2 aperture. The rear cameras are supported by a 6-LED flash.

Other smartphones that we have reviewed and use the 108MP Samsung S5KHM2 sensor for their main cameras are the Doogee S100, Unihertz Tank, Ulefone Power Armor 18T, Ulefone Armor 17 Pro, Doogee V30, and the POCO X4 Pro 5G.

Primary camera

Selfie camera

The front-facing camera of the Ulefone Power Armor 19 uses a 16MP Sony IMX481 sensor with 1.0μm pixels. It is paired with a 5-element lens with an f/2.0 aperture. Up to 1080p video recording at 30 fps is supported.

Camera App

The Camera app is already well-known among other Ulefone smartphones. It simply reflects the cameras' specifics. Again, the shortcut to the photos, the shutter button, and the camera switch are aligned at the bottom. The reel with shooting modes is above them. The default one is called Picture and supports AI, flash, and HDR. The camera settings appear as an overlay on the screen. The Video shooting mode supports HDR and LED flash. For both modes, the main camera is used. The ultra-wide camera is used when you select the dual-trees icon under Picture and Video shooting modes. The settings for those change accordingly. The Microscope mode automatically activates the super-macro lens. The Beauty mode again uses the main camera with options for manual adjustment of the general beautification feature and separate elements. The High-Res mode uses the main camera and shoots with the sensor's original 108MP resolution. The More tab opens a list of additional shooting modes - Pro, Portrait, Gif, Panorama, Mono, Bokeh, and QR code scanning. The Pro mode allows for manual adjustment of the white balance, ISO, exposure, focus style, and shutter speed. The Portrait mode lets you adjust the aperture. The interface for the front camera is largely the same. If a shooting mode is not supported by it, the software automatically switches to the rear cameras. The camera settings are the same no matter where you access them from. They comprise the main options for the front and rear cameras listed as toggles. The Photos app is the default application to open and edit a photo. It arrives with Google Lens integrated.
