Why buy the Ulefone Power 16S
- Large battery: The 9600mAh cell is the main reason to buy this phone. It is not removable, so you charge it through the USB Type-C port.
- Tough build: IP68 and IP69K ratings and MIL-STD-810H compliance suit dusty roads, site work and wet conditions.
- Loud speaker: The 122dB speaker helps in noisy places, such as a busy matatu stage or a market, for calls and videos.
- Room for more files: The dedicated microSDXC slot lets you add storage on top of the 128GB built in.
- Two lines: The dual nano-SIM design lets you keep two numbers, for example a Safaricom line and an Airtel line, in one phone.
Pros and cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| 9600mAh battery in a single cell | 720 x 1440 screen is low resolution by current standards |
| IP68, IP69K and MIL-STD-810H build | 18W wired charging takes a while for a battery this size |
| 122dB loudspeaker | No 5G support |
| Dedicated microSD slot | Unisoc T616 is an entry-level chip, so heavy gaming will be limited |
| Dual SIM and 3.5mm headphone jack | At 406 g it is heavy to carry all day |
Ulefone Power 16S vs Ulefone Armor 16S
| Feature | Ulefone Power 16S | Ulefone Armor 16S |
|---|---|---|
| Avechi price | KSh 18,999 | KSh 20,599 |
| RAM and storage (as named in the Avechi listing) | 8GB and 128GB | 8GB and 128GB |
| Specs checked for this page | Yes | No |
| Best for | Buyers who want the lower price for this RAM and storage | Buyers who want the Armor name and can confirm its specs first |
Verdict: On the listed prices, the Power 16S costs KSh 1,600 less with the same RAM and storage as named. We have not checked the Armor 16S specs. Its name is close to the Power Armor 16S, so the two may be the same handset. Read that Armor 16S page before you pay the higher price.
