The Armor 28 Ultra series is powered by the full-core CPU Dimensity 9300+, providing a 3.4GHz ultra-high main frequency and 4nm process technology. Paired with the flagship 12-core GPU Immortalis-G720, it supports hardware-accelerated ray tracing for an immersive gaming experience. MediaTek's new 755 NPU architecture incorporates a hardware-level AI engine, improving AI computing speed and security. Users can interact with Google Gemini and enjoy AI-driven features like AI Removal, AI Background, AI Human Digital, and AI Photography. With up to 32GB of RAM and 1TB of storage, the device eradicates storage concerns, while LPDDR5X + UFS 4.0 specifications double read/write speeds compared to the previous generation. A massive 15,314mm² graphene cooling system ensures sustained peak performance without overheating.

The Armor 28 Ultra series leads the rugged smartphone industry into the AMOLED era. The 6.67" AMOLED main screen features a 120Hz ultra-high refresh rate and a peak brightness of 2200 nits, while the 1.04" AMOLED sub-screen offers a 60Hz refresh rate. Both screens support Always-On Display (AOD) mode, with customisable lock screen wallpapers for a personalised touch.

The device offers an ultra-luxurious camera setup, including a 50MP main camera with a Sony IMX989 1" super sensor, a 50MP ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 64MP night vision camera upgraded with four-night vision lights and the NightElf 3.0 algorithm for clearer distant shots. The 50MP front camera ensures stunning selfies, while 8K video recording and a physical camera key enable quick two-second imaging.

The device is equipped with a massive 10,600mAh battery, supporting 120W fast charging and 50W wireless charging. Although it ships with Android 14, it will soon receive an OTA upgrade to Android 15. The USB 3.2 interface supports the DP1.4 protocol for high-definition screen mirroring. For navigation, it incorporates GPS, GLONASS, Beidou, Galileo, QZSS, and NavIC systems, ensuring precise global positioning. Extra features include NFC, Bluetooth 5.4, and Widevine L1 certification for high-definition video streaming.
