3. Announcement. IIIF150 B1 and IIIF150 B1 Pro - cheap armored smartphones with two screens

Smartphones IIIF150 B1 and IIIF150 B1 Pro were announced slowly and sadly, bit by bit. The first information about them appeared a very long time ago. And at what point they were declassified completely, I missed something. Maybe just yesterday. Or from a month ago? What's the difference. But the devices are quite curious in their own way, so you still need to talk about them.

IIIF150 B1

Smartphones are very similar. I see only three differences.

• The older model has more permanent memory.
• The older model has a stronger main camera.
• The older model has a nightclothes�measure.

IIIF150 B1 Pro

For some reason, the manufacturer calls IIIF150 B1 Pro a follower of its last year model Bison 2021 (B2021). Well, yes. Both are rugged and have huge batteries. But that's where the similarity ends.

To the characteristics.

We have budget and very cheap (and therefore weak) secure devices.

With protection, everything is traditional. They talk about IP68, IP69K and MIL-STD-810G. Promised protection from water, dust, vibration, drops from one and a half meters. Operating temperature range - from -20 to +55С.

The main feature withmartphones - an additional inch screen located on the back, next to the cameras. The characteristics of the screen are not specified. Whether it is touch-sensitive, whether it is color - it is impossible to determine from the pictures. What can be deduced from it is also not yet clear. We are waiting for reviews.

The main screen is completely trivial. Diagonal 6.5" (102 cm²), resolution 1080x2400 (405 ppi), no increased refresh rate.

We saved money on hardware. The low-power MediaTek Helio G37 chipset, so we expect only a little more than a hundred thousand points in AnTuTu.

With RAM, everything is fine, there is as much as 6 GB of it. �Permanent memory - 64 GB for the younger model and 128 GB for the older one. There is support for memory cards, but, judging by the pictures, the tray here is hybrid.

The battery is chic, as much as 10,000 mAh. Charging is not particularly fast, but still 18 watts. As usual, the battery capacity and protection came at the cost of weight and thickness. 356 grams and almost 17 millimeters respectively.

The cameras are modest. The front cameras have a resolution of 8 MP. The main rear camera is 48 MP for IIIF150 B1 Pro and 20 MP for the younger model. Both devices have a macro camera. Additionally, the B1 Pro has a night camera withinfrared illumination (20 MP).

Other. There are NFC modules, Type-C, dual-band Wi-Fi. Fingerprint scanners are located on the side. Apparently, there is no standard audio output.

And about the price. The page dedicated to B1 and B1 Pro has already appeared on AliExpress. Judging by the banner, the start of sales is scheduled for August 22. If I interpret the banner correctly, then the younger model at the start of sales will cost only $109 (₽7410), while the older one will cost $159 (₽10800). Quite inexpensive for such funny devices, in my opinion.
