Suggested use cases
Ulefone is positioning the smartphone as a professional tool for manufacturing professions. The thermal imager can be used to diagnose electronics and pipelines (leaks or overheating). Rescue services can use it to see through smoke or search for people in the dark. Hikers and naturalists can use a thermal imager to keep an eye on nocturnal animals. Builders can analyse buildings to detect heat loss. The Ukrainian military can use it to detect Russian small assault units and sabotage groups.
Additionally, the smartphone has three LED flashes for the camera - an infrared, a regular and a large LED that can be used as a flashlight. The smartphone also has two bright red and blue LEDs to attract attention in case of emergency. With such a smartphone, it's really not scary to get lost in nature or face the zombie apocalypse.
