The Ulefone Armor X3 is one of the company’s most affordable rugged handsets. This smartphone comes with a customizable physical button, and Ulefone opted to show off its functionality in a new video.
The company published this video on its official YouTube channel. That video is embedded down below, in case you’d like to check it out.
This customizable button sits on the left-hand side of the device
The Armor X3’s customizable button is located on the left-hand side of its body. It’s placed in the middle of that side, more or less, so it’s easily reachable.
In order to customize it, you need to fire up the phone’s Settings. There you will notice the “Find Easy Key” sub-menu. In that menu, you will be able to set three different shortcuts for this button.
You can set actions for a single click, double click, and a long-press. This makes this button extremely useful, if you think about it.
You can set it to activate a shortcut on the phone, such a flashlight, for example. If you prefer to open an app with this button, you can do that as well. This button can even be used as an SOS button, in case of an emergency.
Everything is shown in the provided video
In the video, Ulefone shows you how to set each of those buttons. After that, you’ll be able to see all those shortcuts in action.
