What we don't like about Ulefone Note 17 Pro (24GB + 256GB)

  • Lack of 5G connectivity is a major drawback for some users.
  • Camera performance, especially in video recording and low-light, is considered average or below-average by some reviewers and not suitable for camera enthusiasts.
  • Software can have bugs, with reports of random reboots and app crashes, and slow OS updates from Ulefone.
  • Mono speaker audio is a potential deal-breaker for users prioritizing sound quality.
  • 33W fast charging is considered slow compared to other modern options.
  • The phone can feel heavy to some users.
  • Potential carrier compatibility issues, particularly in North America, with missing key network bands.

Verdict

The Ulefone Note 17 Pro is a budget-friendly smartphone featuring a 6.78-inch, 120Hz AMOLED 3D curved display with a 1080 x 2400 resolution, protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 5. It is powered by the MediaTek Helio G99 octa-core processor (6nm process) and includes a substantial 24GB of RAM (12GB physical plus up to 12GB virtual RAM) and 256GB of internal storage, expandable via microSD. The phone boasts a 108MP main rear camera and a 32MP front camera, a large 5050mAh battery with 33W fast charging, NFC for Google Pay, an IR blaster for remote control functionality, and runs a near-stock Android 13 OS. Key pros include its premium-feeling curved AMOLED screen, high refresh rate, generous memory/storage configuration, and versatile features for its price point. The main cons are that it is limited to a 4G network (no 5G support) and some users have reported the haptics feel weak.
